Melbourne rockers Children Collide are heading home after a three-week tour of North America.
The lads worked their butts off abroad, playing 15 dates in the United States and Canada. The shows included a gig with Ontario’s own Alexisonfire. It seems the Canadians took a shine to the band, because their debut album The Long Now is getting a release on Dine Alone Records.
Now that they’re back home the band is preparing for their slot on the Splendour in the Grass bill, before they support Jane’s Addiction around the country.
But that’s not all. Not one to sit idly for too long, Children Collide will then join Aussie ex-pats The Scare on the Chosen Armies tour. Here are the dates for that amazing double-act!
