Waxhead have announced an extensive East Coast tour to celebrate the release of Home, the first single to be taken from their debut EP of the same name, out Friday, 24th October. The 12-date trek will see the Byron Bay natives hitting up venues in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Torquay Hotel, Newcastle, Port Macquarie, Byron Bay, and more.
These self-described surf rats, whose sound sits somewhere between Oz rock and psychedelic, drawing on influences as diverse as Pink Floyd and Talking Heads, are still riding a wave of momentum (no pun intended) generated by the release of ‘Home’, the first single to be taken from their highly anticipated debut EP.
Produced by their good friend George Carpenter and mastered by Brian Lucey, best known for his work with The Black Keys and Arctic Monkeys, the new single is the band’s attempt at capturing the fury and blistering energy of their infamous live performances.
Readers can check below for all dates and details of Waxhead’s upcoming Home tour, which kicks off at the Lennox Point Hotel in Lennox Point on Friday, 7th November, traversing the East Coast, with plenty of beachside stops, before finishing up at Black Bear Lodge, Brisbane on Saturday, 13th December.
