Augie March Announce “First Show Back” After Five Years

Having recently confirmed the release of a long-awaited fifth studio album, acclaimed Melbourne indie rockers Augie March are now officially returning to the scene with the announcement that they will play a very special one-off live date. This “first show back” will go down at Howler in Melbourne this October.

This special one-off show for their hometown fans will see Augie March return to the scene they began and to the fans that made them heroes. With a discography of classic cuts and a new single, After The Crack Up, in tow, this performance will be something fans will remember for a long time.

And it’s only fitting that the band return to Brunswick, Victoria to officially return from what was a long, five-year wait for fans. Back in 1995, a young and inexperienced Augie March first presented themselves to the world after they were invited to play at the opening of a friend’s art exhibition.

Now, a full nineteen years later and once again in Brunswick, just a few streets away from that first venue, the band will return to present fans with a whole new Augie March. The band will be drawing on songs from their beloved back catalogue as well as songs from their upcoming new album.

UPDATE 31/07/14: Augie March have now announced a second hometown show after the original Howler date sold out in just hours. See updated tour details below.

UPDATE 04/08/14: Due to overwhelming demand, Augie March’s first two shows have already sold out and a third has now been announced. Tickets are on sale now, see details below.

UPDATE 11/08/14: Due to demand for tickets, Augie March’s first three Melbourne shows have now sold out, with fourth and fifth (and final) dates have been added. Tickets are on sale now, see details below.

UPDATE 17/10/14: Augie March have named the five artist who will provide support for them on this upcoming string of hometown shows. Respectively they are Oliver Mann, Teeth & Tongue, Jae Laffer, Jen Cloher and Fraser A. Gorman.
