Sydney boys, Strangers will deliver their fresh take on Aussie rock to the masses this summer on an extensive nine-date album tour that stretches from Newcastle to Bunbury.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u00a0Produced by Tom Larkin (Shihad, The Getaway Plan, Calling All Cars), debut release \u2018Persona Non Grata\u2019 is laden with guitar-driven, rollicking riffs and makes a dynamic, confident debut.\u201cIt brings the bad-arse, blue collar brawn in spades.”-\u00a0<\/em>Zoo Magazine<\/strong>2012 has been a landmark year for the five-piece; there\u2019s been serious Triple J support, whirlwind Sydney\/Melbourne residencies, a sellout Lansdowne headlining show, showcases at the 2012 Big Sound music conference and just-announced spot on the illustrious SXSW conference in Austin, Texas. They were also schooled in rock by masters of the art,\u00a0The Darkness<\/strong>,\u00a0Calling All Cars<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Good Charlotte<\/strong>\u00a0when they opened huge venues on several Australian dates. Not bad for a band who\u2019ve just celebrated their second birthday.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Strangers<\/strong>\u00a0live experience is one of Australia\u2019s finest. Noisy and visceral, with swagger that\u00a0TheMusic.com.au<\/a>\u00a0insists \u201cwill hold some serious weight when they inevitably snatch Birds Of Tokyo\u2019s crown\u201d<\/em>, it\u2019s also drawn its fair share of comparisons to\u00a0Kyuss<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0The Bronx<\/strong>, and that\u2019s just fine with them.<\/p>\n

\u2018Persona Non Grata\u2019 may roughly translate to \u2018an unwelcome stranger\u2019, but everyone will be welcome at these rock shows that boast heart, soul and most importantly, balls. Get tickets on Thursday Dec 13!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
