The Middle East Tour

Before beginning work on their highly-anticipated debut, Townsville’s The Middle East are heading out for a quick jaunt down the East Coast. This is on top of their previously-announced appearances at Meredith, Homebake and Sunset Sounds, which makes for a fairly busy few months again (not that they’ve been taking it easy all year by any stretch). Dragging Pianos are supporting all dates.

As an added bonus for the band, lead track from their EP ‘The Darkest Side’ was recently featured over at Pitchfork and given some decent props. All good signs. If you’ve missed what all the fuss is about,make sure you get along to one of the below shows.

Thursday October 8 Princess Theatre, Brisbane (w/ Dragging Pianos & Jake Core)

Friday October 9 Manning Bar, Sydney (w/ Dragging Pianos & Jonathan Boulet Saturday)

October 10 ANU Bar, Canberra (w/ Dragging Pianos & Margaret Helen King Sunday)

October 11 The Corner Hotel, Melbourne (w/Dragging Pianos & Oliver Mann)
