Yelawolf Announces Aus Headline Dates

Alabama cult-hip hop hero Yelawolf is in Australia for the second time next month, supporting home-grown hip hop legends Bliss N Eso on their enormous album tour around the country. Plenty of those dates have already sold out, so the Southern rap star has announced a couple of solo headline dates for while he is out here.

His most recent release, the mixtape Trunk Muzik, has been met with pretty high acclaim and had the rapper attract the likes of A$AP Rocky, Raekwon and Killer Mike to help him out. His next LP Love Story – following on from his Shady Records debut, 2011's Radioactive – will be out at some stage later this year.

But for the time being audiences in Melbourne and Sydney can catch him at the Corner Hotel and Metro Theatre respectively on Monday 8 and Tuesday 9 July. The full run of dates Yelawolf plays while he's here are below.

Tickets for the headline shows are released next Monday 17 June and they'll probably sell out pretty damn quickly.
