Howling Bells homecoming tour

Fri 25th Sep, 2009 in Local News

Sydney indie exports Howling Bells will return to home soil in December for an East Coast tour. Last sighted here on the V Festival circuit, the UK-based band is enjoying a dream run abroad.

Led by magnetic vocalist Juanita Stein, Howling Bells has spent a chunk of 2009 hopping between European festivals. They’ve already supported Coldplay on an arena run and have an upcoming North American jaunt planned with Pixies. No shrinking violets, then.

This Australian tour follows the release of second album Radio Wars back in March. If you pass up these dates, your next chance might be a while off.

Thursday 3rd December – Barwon Club Hotel, Geelong
Friday 4th December – Corner Hotel, Richmond
Friday 11th December – The Zoo, Brisbane
Saturday 12th December – Neverland Bar, Gold Coast
Sunday 13th December – Great Northern Hotel, Byron Bay
Thursday 17th December – ANU Union Bar, Canberra
Friday 18th December – Gaelic Club, Sydney

Urgh, the one band that you've mentioned in the last 3 years that I'm actually interested in and you can't give me other dates

For shame.

i hope this is true...and they have to play sydney too! im still annoyed i didn't go to their show at the metro ages ago and their set at v fest set wasn't long enough. im not a hater of their new album but the songs are much better played live..

Disagree. Mostly they lack intensity live, and I've seen them at least five times -- and reviewing on at least two occasions.

I think that first album is a corker, but on stage they're often curiously passionless. Great tunes; dead fish attitude. Sucker for punishment that I am, I'll probably still give them another go.

They're purdy to look at on stage, but beyond that they offer nuffing.
