Community radio favourites Blackchords, Grand Atlantic, and Sierra Fin will join forces to take their tunes to the masses this summer on the Lost on the Pretty Little Coast tour.
Melbourne’s Blackchords have just returned from a string of dates in the United Kingdom and France, so it’s only a matter of time before they make it big at home. Beat Magazine calls them “a band of substance and earnestness,” adding that they’re the sort of band “you honestly hope will be making music for many years to come.” They’re out promoting their new single “Pretty Little Thing” from their self-titled debut album.
Brisbane’s Grand Atlantic have received praise worldwide for their new album How We Survive. Their big guitar riffs and addictive pop melodies make them an act to watch. The band is joining the tour to support their new single “Coast is Clear.”
Rounding out the bill is Sierra Fin, an exciting Sydney quartet who’s enlisted a symphony orchestra to complete their ambitious debut recording. Their live shows bring together ukuleles, Buddy Holly inspired antics, and a sense of theatre. Jonathon Moran of The Sunday Telegraph says “they bring something new and unique to Australia’s music scene.” It sounds like he’s right on the money there!
