Taxiride’s Jason Singh Releases New Single “Strangers”

You probably know Jason Singh as one quarter of Taxiride. The ‘90s pop-rockers have played plenty of shows of late, but somehow Jason has managed to squeeze in some solo work too. He’s just dropped his latest solo single “Strangers,” a beautiful piano ballad that should make any listener swoon.

Much of Jason’s solo material has been floor-filling synth pop, so this more vulnerable and emotional track marks a real departure for his sound. I personally love the new direction. “Strangers” feels like it’s come from a very honest place. You can listen here or check out the lyric video on Jason’s Facebook page.

If you’re seeing Hanson this week, make sure you get there on time. Jason is warming up the crowds for Taylor, Zac, and Ike at the following shows.

18 & 19 June 2017 – Forum Theatre, Melbourne (with Hanson)
21 & 22 June 2017 – Enmore Theatre, Sydney (with Hanson)
24 June 2017 – The Star, Gold Coast (with Hanson)
25 June 2017 – The Tivoli, Brisbane (with Hanson)

Strangers Announce Album Tour

Sydney rock quintet Strangers will kick off 2013 with a national tour to promote their debut album Persona Non Grata.

It’s a gritty release, but one with real maturity that’s no doubt been helped along by seasoned producer Tom Larkin (Shihad, The Getaway Plan, Calling All Cars). As the title track shows, it rocks hard, but the melodic guitar riffs ensure it stays accessible.

The release of Persona Non Grata caps off a big year for Strangers, who enjoyed support slots with The Darkness, Good Charlotte, and Calling All Cars, and even sold out their own headlining show at The Lansdowne. The upcoming nine-date tour hints that 2013 might be just as epic!

31 January 2013 – The Great Northern, Newcastle
1 February 2013 – Annandale Hotel, Sydney
2 February 2013 – The Patch, Wollongong
7 February 2013 – Ed Castle, Adelaide
8 February 2013 – Workers Club, Melbourne
14 February 2013 – Newport Hotel, Fremantle
15 February 2013 – Prince of Wales, Bunbury (FREE)
16 February 2013 – Amplifier, Perth
17 February 2013 – Indi Bar, Scarborough
