About to head up north as part of the Splendour In The Grass bill, English four-piece, Wild Beasts, will be including a couple of sideshows on their anticipated return to Australia, thanks to Laneway Presents.

With four albums under their belt, the foursome have carved out a distinct corner of the market for themselves; writing gloriously exuberant yet understated music paired with intelligent lyrics which become ingrained in your memory.

Their headline shows will take place at Sydney’s Manning Bar on Monday 28th July and Melbourne’s Prince Bandroom on Tuesday 29th July. For tickets visit www.oztix.com.au.

Hailing from the Lake District, and with a near decade-long career under their belt, Wild Beasts will be touring off the back of their latest offering, Present Tense, which has seen them take a significantly varied direction. Since their last visit to Australia in July 2011, Hayden Thorpe, Tom Fleming, Chris Talbot and Ben Little took almost a full year away from touring to conceive and construct the eleven tracks of Present Tense. 

We’re glad that they’re back to touring and to celebrate, Tone Deaf are giving Melbourne and Sydney readers the chance to win a double pass to see Wild Beasts at their side shows. Enter your details below to win!
