Augie March Announce "Watch Me Disappear" Aussie Tour

Augie March have spent the past 18 months or so variously writing and recording a new album in Auckland, Melbourne, Sydney and LA, plus touring North America, supporting the mighty Crowded House on their comeback run, playing the odd festival show and continuing to receive high praise around the globe for their previous platinum-plated platter, amongst other things.

One thing they have not done in that time, however, is undertake a proper headline tour of their homeland. That situation is hereby rectified.

The Watch Me Disappear Tour hits the cities for a series of shows that will feature material from that so-named forthcoming album, 'Watch Me Disappear'.

The title track of the new album made its way into the cyber world last week to a massive blur of download activity and blog-love. The first actual single is a song named 'Pennywhistle' and it will be available in Australia as a digital download from September 16th and in stores from September 27th.

Now, about the tour...

PLEASE NOTE: Tickets are on sale from Thursday 11th September nationally through various outlets and www.augiemarch.com.

Fabulously gifted and charming Melbourne raconteur Dan Kelly will join the Augies on the road with current outfit The Ukeladies, who perhaps require no explanation as to their make-up. Get there early for a very entertaining night. Details of all venues are below.

The first Augie March headline run in a year and a half - Watch Tickets Disappear.
