CHILDREN COLLIDE’S anticipated MONUMENT TOUR is kicking into the next gear this week, as national supports are announced and the band release an online video for album track SPHERE OF INFLUENCE.
Presented by triple j, Channel [V] and Music Feeds THE MONUMENT TOUR will take in all Australian capital cities plus a bunch of regional centres, one of Children Collide’s most lengthy tours to date and the perfect way to celebrate the release of third album MONUMENT.
We’re now pleased to reveal that two killer Australian acts will join the revelry. Rolling up in main support will be Brisbane’s DUNE RATS and opening proceedings will be up-and-comers BAD DREEMS out of Adelaide-town. DUNE RATS have been peddling their surfy garage pop around the nation since 2010 with the likes of The Drums, The Vines and Belles Will Ring and have promised to bring the party. BAD DREEMS include former Dardanelles member Alex Cameron and play the kind of guitar pop that brings to mind the Flying Nun roster and the likes of Rowland S. Howard and Paul Kelly. All in all; a wondersome combination of bands for the Monument Tour.
SPHERE OF INFLUENCE is the shortest track lifted from MONUMENT. Front-man Johnny has taken to using it as a soundtrack while he films himself shaving or brushing his teeth. Filmed with his phone gaffa-taped to the bathroom mirror over a couple of weeks, the results are both confounding and amusing. Check it out here. Heath and Johnny are now working on an exciting video for their next single, more to come.
CHILDREN COLLIDE will be prepping their most fiery live performances for this monumental adventure. And with some excellent supports in tow, all 19 dates on the MONUMENT TOUR are going to be electrifying. Tickets on sale now, get yours now.
