Sydney indie folksters Boy & Bear are the latest local act to reschedule their 2020 tour dates as a result of COVID-19, with the band pushing things back until November.
Shortly after returning from some dates in the US, off the back of new record Suck On Light, Boy & Bear announced they felt compelled to act, moving their previously scheduled March, April and May shows in the interested of public safety.
“Ok we’re on! Pandemic, shamdemic… Tour now happening in November,” said the band on their socials.
“Lock it in, cos we can’t wait. If you already have tickets please take a look to see where and when the shows have been moved to.”
All tickets are still valid for the new dates, and while refunds are available for anyone who can’t attend, Boy & Bear are encouring fans to #keepyourticket. The Sydney gig is the only date to have changed venues.
“By keeping your tickets, you keep your funds in the industry at a time when it really needs it, and you help us avoid doubling up on our promotion costs for the rescheduled dates,” they said.
Full details of the changes are below (including some extra shows added recently):
