Blue Mountains psych rockers Cloud Control will be heading out on an extensive tour of Australia this August and September, in support of their highly anticipated forthcoming sophomore album, Dream Cave, good news for those who won’t get to catch their set at this year’s Splendour In The Grass.
The tour sees the band return to their homeland for 14 shows all around the country, after 3 years spent living, writing and playing in the UK. Cloud Control shacked up in the English countryside of Kent earlier in the year to record Dream Cave with producer Barny Barnicott, who’s worked with bands like Arctic Monkeys and Kasabian. The result is promised to be an album that explores a treasure trove of new ideas while still embracing the elegant psychedelic pop we’ve come to love from the band.
Cloud Control will be supported by Sydney outfit Palms, who’ve been winning hearts with their beautifully crafted indie pop tunes like their current single This Last Year. Tickets for all shows are on sale Wednesday, 3rd July and Dream Cave is released in Australia on 9th August via Ivy League.
UPDATE: Supports for the tour have been announced, as well as a new date in Byron Bay! Check the list below.
