THE GRATES “TEETH LOST, HEARTS WON” TOUR
With The Vasco Era and The John Steel Singers
TICKETS ON SALE FRIDAY, AUGUST 8th ($32 BF)
THE GRATES ANNOUNCE OCTOBER TOUR
The Grates live shows have now become stuff of legend. Patience's dancing style has its own patent, Alana's smile is always infectious and John is the captain of their musician-ship. You never know quite what to expect, as Winter Wonderlands, party balloons and colorful capers fill the stage. Their recent Surprise Parties where the unusual locations weren't revealed until 48 hours before the show are testimony to the fact that The Grates never stick to the norm!
With their upcoming new album Teeth Lost, Hearts Won already getting young hearts a flutter ahead of its early August release, The Grates get ready to give fans a coronary with the announce of a major national tour throughout October.
The Grates welcome The Vasco Era as their main support for their October joyride. The Vasco Era's J Award Nominated debut album Oh We Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside was a heady mix of delta blues and stomping rock & roll. With enough raw energy and howling vocals to keep up with The Grates, this Apollo Bay trio have fast gained a fierce live reputation. With new material coming up they’re sure to be one hot act!
The Grates also welcome The John Steel Singers to the fray as their energetic opener. Thanks to some sweet Strawberry Wine this Brisbane six-piece have been taking over the airwaves at Triple J and hitting the road for some heavy touring with the likes of Yves Klein Blue. Featuring an instrument swapping horn section and indie tunes you can dance to, The John Steel Singers are just the ticket to get this party started.
As a special treat for fans, The Grates will be offering special pre-order packs including an album, a ticket to the show and handkerchief with a limited edition Grates pillow case available on line from HERE .
Teeth Lost, Hearts Won, builds on the success of The Grates debut album Gravity Won’t Get You High which debuted in the Top Ten of the ARIA charts, earned them critical praise and numerous accolades and saw releases in the USA, UK, Europe, Canada and NZ.
For their second album they teamed up again with Peter Katis (Interpol, The National, Mates of State), but this time they took turns in the driver's seat of production duties. On this album, The Grates have brought a depth and density to the songwriting, the lyrics are raw and poignant, the sonics more biting and aggressive. There's still that Grates spirit and vibrancy, but there is also more reflection and more sophistication of expression.
The raucous new single Burn Bridges is a rebel-rousing, hoe-down inducing little ditty of rock & roll pop is out now through iTunes. The new album Teeth Lost, Hearts Won is out on August 2nd through Dew Process/UMA. The Grates will be performing at Splendour In The Grass.
