La Roux Announces First Australian Headline Shows

La Roux – one of this year’s most lauded bands – will perform their first headline shows in Australia this September and October. Performing in Sydney and Melbourne, there will be strictly one show only in each city, ensuring these are some of the hottest tickets in town. Support at both shows will be Sydney’s Catcall.

From a debut single release in late 2008, La Roux’s rise has been swift. Touted as an act to watch in 2009, La Roux exceeded expectations as they unleashed their electro soundscape on the music world, affirming their place as this year’s brightest stars.

Most recently seen supporting Phoenix along the East Coast, Catcall will resume the prowl as she opens for La Roux in Sydney and Melbourne. Named the “next big thing” by the Sydney Morning Herald, Catcall’s impressive fuzz pop/rap hybrid is sure to thrill all in attendance. With a US tour under her belt and a debut album on the way it’s time Australia heard her purr.
