Tour Guide: Bodyjar, The Audreys, The Owls

Today’s Tour Guide presents a sublime blend of Australian talent that ranges from veterans of the game, to experienced live performers, as well as some up-and-comers, to wit, we have announcements from the mighty Bodyjar, the lovely Audreys, and a string of dates from The Owls.

Bodyjar 2014 East Coast Tour

Few bands are able to last two decades, let alone do it while garnering a legion of fans and cementing themselves as an Aussie rock institution, but Bodyjar make it look easy. The boys will be bringing their infamous live shows back to the East Coast ahead of their European headline tour.

These NSW shows will see Bodyjar celebrate their 20th Anniversary, all refreshed with a new label and some 50 new tracks. Of course fans will still get to hear those seminal anthems they fell in love with all those years ago, like You’re Not The Same, One In A Million, and Too Drunk To Drive.

The Audreys Til My Tears Roll Away 2014 National Tour

Taasha Coates and Tristan Goodall are The Audreys. The Adelaide-based blues and roots duo have been garnering accolades for years, even scoring an ARIA award for Best Blues and Roots Album with their acclaimed 2010 LP, Sometimes The Stars, and they’ll be hitting the road this June.

Music Feeds recently caught up with Tristan and Taasha to chat about their latest album, Til My Tears Roll Away. The pair also discussed their connection to INXS and Midnight Oil, and how they “love telling stories about loveable losers.” See an acoustic performance from that meeting below.

The Owls 2014 Australian Tour Dates

The Owls recently followed-up the sneering grit of their single Krakow with the whiskey-soaked rock stomp of Ocean, and fans haven’t been able to stop talking about it since. To celebrate the new single, the boys have decided to get back to what they do best with a new string of tour dates.

Since bursting onto the scene in 2008, everyone has been predicting big things for The Owls. This Newcastle four-piece and their no-frills style of untampered rock and roll have wowed crowds with support slots for the likes of Wolf & Cub and their own infamously explosive headline shows.
