BALL PARK MUSIC ANNOUNCE THE HAPPINESS AND SURROUNDING SUBURBS ALBUM TOUR 2011
August 31st, 2011 | By
There’s been the run of brilliantly clever singles, the infectiously energetic live shows, and now Brisbane’s Ball Park Music are proud to announce a headline tour to celebrate the release of their debut album Happiness and Surrounding Suburbs.
With songs like iFly, Sad Rude Future Dude, Rich People Are Stupid and most recently It’s Nice To Be Alive, Ball Park Music has quickly emerged as one of the most promising young bands thanks to a touring regime that’s never really let up. Aside from sell-out dates in their home town, they’ve performed with the likes of Boy & Bear, Cloud Control, Hungry Kids of Hungary, Philadelphia Grand Jury, Eagle and The Worm and Big Scary amongst others, while winning plenty of new fans through sets at the Gold Coast Big Day Out, Falls Festival, Southbound, Sunset Sounds and Good Vibrations festivals. The band even headed to Asia recently after being invited to play at Music Matters (Singapore) and the CAMA festival in Vietnam.
Ball Park Music has delivered in spades with their debut album, swaggering between the quirky and quietly reflective, it delivers the radio hits and offers plenty of moments where you want to – and can – dig deeper.
And now the fun really begins – Ball Park Music is happy to invite Melbourne six-piece psychedelic dance rockers Northeast Party House and emerging Brisbane indie pop/rock darlings The Jungle Giants.
triple j, Channel [V], Street Press Australia, Groupie, Stop Start, Select Music and Mucho-Bravado present.
