In their grand spirit of never ever ever slowing down, Melbourne’s beloved THE SMITH STREET BAND have announced that they’ll be venturing overseas to explore lands unknown off the back of their new EP. They’ll take off just days after wrapping up their August headline tour in support of new 5-track EP/10″ ‘Don’t Fuck With Our Dreams’, and hit the UK, Europe, USA and Canada.
The band’s first ever European tour will see them team up with new UK pals Apologies, I Have None to travel from Belgium through to France and then join forces with Great Cynics for ten shows spanning Kingston to Cardiff. They’ll then embark on a marathon 42-date North American tour as main support for friend and former Australian touring buddy Frank Turner and his band The Sleeping Souls.
See all tour dates below.
