Real Estate Announce New Show, Supports For February 2015 Tour

Indie titans Real Estate have announced a new Melbourne show at the top of their Australian headline tour as they close out the summer down under next year. The new show will take place at Melbourne hipster den Howler on Tuesday 24th February, the day before their sold-out show at the Corner Hotel.

Real Estate’s February 2015 tour, which also sees shows in Sydney and Brisbane, is the band’s first headline run in our country since their first visit in 2012, and follows well-received shows Laneway Festival 2013.

Now touring their latest album, Atlas, the band say they’re not returning for festivals, so this tour looks to be the only chance you’ll get to take in these new tunes on this album cycle. Bassist Alex Bleeker recently told us the newly expanded Real Estate plan to “relax for a bit” after their Australian visit.

“We don’t really write during tours, we get into an album recording and release cycle,” Bleeker told Music Feeds’ Tom Williams. “We recorded a lot of songs for Atlas which didn’t get used, so we’ve been thinking about putting together an EP.”

The Stevens will open for Real Estate at the Corner Hotel and at Sydney’s Oxford Art Factory. Dick Diver will support at the Corner Hotel only, and Day Ravies in Sydney only. Locals Blank Realm round out support slots in Brisbane. Stay tuned for guests to be announced for the new show. Tour details below.
