Foals DJ tour

Fri 9th Oct, 2009 in Local News

Foals are finally touring – well, kinda.

Their keyboardist Edwin Congreaves is coming to Australia in the guise of Foals DJs, hopefully providing a taste of the follow up to the Oxford math-rockers’ acclaimed Antidotes record.

We had them at 50-1 to make the BDO bill so with any luck the DJ tour means a fully fledged Foals tour is inching ever closer.

A respected DJ in his own right, Congreaves has appeared in the Foals DJs guise across Europe including slots at V-Festival and Field Day. He’ll haul his crate of disco, techno, krautrock and electro-house across the Australia, beginning with the 3rd Birthday celebrations for Lick It at the Empire in Brisbane, where he’ll DJ alongside Ed Banger’s Feadz and the Mercy Arms DJs.

FasterLouder readers in Melbourne can get $5 of entry to the Halloween night show at Roxanne by emailing johann@melodicmusic.com for a spot on the guestlist.
