GANG OF YOUTHS – Australian headline tour September 2017

Hot on the heels of a string of sold out UK and US shows, GANG OF YOUTHS will be returning for a national tour kicking off this August.

Celebrating the upcoming release of their second studio album, Go Farther In Lightness, the band will be playing their biggest shows to date. The tour kicks off in Brisbane on August 31, followed by all ages shows in Melbourne, Sydney, Hobart and Adelaide, the band will wrap the tour in Perth on September 16.

Since the 2015 release of their critically acclaimed debut album, The Positions, Gang of Youths have quickly become one of Australia’s most acclaimed and hardworking touring bands. Earning countless glowing reviews for both their live shows and recordings, the band are ready to unleash their highly anticipated sophomore album, Go Farther In Lightness on August 18 on Mosy Recordings/Verge via Sony Music.

This new record continues the work that has already so indelibly imprinted on fans across the world. Go Farther In Lightness bears the scars of the band’s painful history, flashing their wounds with the same candour as The Positions, but seeking to draw new lessons from their struggle to endure.

Gang of Youths frontman Dave Le’aupepe explains the album in his own words, “Go Farther In Lightness is my healing record”.
