CITY RIOTS ANNOUNCE NEW SINGLE

June 22nd, 2011 | By

Adelaide four-piece CITY RIOTS are finally unleashing their next pop gem, ‘In My Head’. A timely invitation from exciting Brisbane prospects, Ball Park Music to support them on their first headline tour, will see City Riots officially launch their brand new single nationally.

For a band that is only just beginning to get the recognition they deserve in Australia, they certainly have an impressive resume behind them. 2010 saw the indie band head to the US on three separate occasions. Firstly, to showcase at SXSW during a 25-date tour around the US which included Aussie BBQ’s in LA, NYC and Austin, secondly, as the only Australian band to play Filter Magazine’s Culture Collide festival alongside The Black Lips and Klaxons and finally, to showcase at the renowned CMJ Music Marathon.
City Riots kept up appearances in Australia last year, managing to squeeze in tours with indie-rockers British India, WA music geniuses The Chemist and most notably, the national support for the Smashing Pumpkins tour.
With Australia the firm focus for the foreseeable future, City Riots launched into 2011 with a 26-date national tour with previous touring buddies British India and new friends Boy in a Box.  As the year continues, so does their touring, with the imminent Ball Park Music tour this July.
The digital-only release of ‘In My Head’ out July 1, also features the first-time release of previous radio single ‘She Never Wants to Dance’ as well as brand new track ‘Stupid Questions’.
