Aussie Promoter Life Is Noise Loses Final Tour Following Sexual Misconduct Allegations

Australian touring company Life Is Noise has lost its only remaining Australian tour after its former co-owner David Cutbush was accused of sexual misconduct last week.

After international acts Sleep and Chelsea Wolfe both pulled out of their 2018 Australian tours, black metal outfit Wolves In The Throne Room have now pulled out of their upcoming Australian and New Zealand tour, which was being promoted by Life Is Noise.

In a statement, Life Is Noise says:

“We regret to inform you that Life Is Noise will no longer be delivering the planned Wolves In The Throne Room Australian and NZ tour. Refunds will be issued to all ticket-holders for the Life Is Noise presented shows, and details on this will be communicated via ticketing companies shortly.”

“Thank you for your patience across the weekend as we work through these tour cancellations and refund procedures with the ticketing companies. Further details on all refund procedures will be communicated via the ticketing companies direct to all ticket purchasers.”

Wolves In The Throne Room are yet to issue a statement, but were due to perform in Brisbane, Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth in April.

David Cutbush departed Life Is Noise last week, and later issued a statement admitting to having “acted poorly and in a manner that is inappropriate and sleazy”.
