I’ve always had a soft spot for bluesy Gold Coast act The Vernons. So even though I didn’t get to the press release spruiking their new single “Keep On Dreaming” and EP Snap until the launch tour was well and truly underway, I couldn’t resist posting it. Because whether you wanted to get to the shows or not, this song is one of those songs that you should hear. It’s a break-up song the way it should be done, so raw that it bleeds.
And if you’re living in Melbourne or Sydney, you’re in luck, because they haven’t visited your town yet. Tickets are still available for the shows at The Grace Darling on November 13 and Brighton Up Bar on November 14.

The Vernons Launch “Rollin’ Back to You”
After a busy six months making waves here and abroad, The Vernons are back with a brand new single “Rollin’ Back to You.” This is our first taste of the Queensland rockers’ forthcoming sophomore album Volume II.
I just love how gritty and dirty this track is. It’s all attitude and blues, and has one of the best bass lines I’ve heard in some time.
Fans will get to hear a little bit more from Volume II when The Vernons launch the single at the following shows.
8 May 2014 – Brighton Up Bar, Sydney
15 May 2014 – Boney, Melbourne
22 May 2014 – Black Bear Lodge, Brisbane

The Vernons Score T-Mobile Ad
Queensland rockers The Vernons have scored a major coup, with their song “Shake n Roll” featuring in the latest advertisements for American mobile phone giant T-Mobile. The 12-month campaign is amazing exposure for the band, who spent 2013 working hard on breaking into the US market.
Just as they’ve got the world wanting to hear more, they’re also hard at work on their sophomore EP, not so originally titled Volume II. That recording, which is expected to drop in July, will see the group working with The Wrecking Crew’s legendary guitarist Louie Shelton.
It sounds like all the stars are aligning for this great Aussie act!
