Get ready New South Wales!
After sell out shows in Canberra, Melbourne and Hobart this past fortnight, GRAFTON PRIMARY are bringing their biggest and bestest live show yet – think massive light show and even fatter sounds – to your borders throughout September on their Records For The Righteous Tour
This is Grafton Primary’s last tour of Australia for 2009, and with their previous tour earlier this year selling out everywhere they landed, you’ll want to get in early to see Grafton Primary ignite the dance floor, supported by Sydney’s Cassette Kids nationally and Hey Now DJs at specified shows below.
‘Records For The Righteous’ is being featured heavily on US College radio where their album Eon debuted as #1 Most Added on the RPM/CMJ chart followed by a #35 debut on the same chart this week.
‘Records For The Righteous’ is also the follow up single to ‘All Stars; in the UK where the band recently launched the release of Eon through Republic of Music (Bloc Party, Fatboy Slim, Hot Chip) with a show at Cargo in London and another in Frankfurt, Germany.
Grafton Primary are proving to be one of the bands to watch in the new wave of antipodean electronic music reaching international shores. The electronic rockers continue their international touring mission later in the year with a second UK/Europe trip, followed by US West Coast dates and the Sonofilia Festival in Mexico City.
Grafton Primary’s Records For The Rightous show is a must-see for all brave hearts.
