Boy and Bear tour

Tue 10th Aug, 2010 in Local News

With hardly a moment to wipe the Splendour-induced sweat from their collective brow, folk-rockers Boy & Bear have announced their most extensive tour yet. Celebrating the release of their third single Blood to Gold, the Sydney five-piece will take to the stage across the nation in October.

First surfacing in early 2009, Boy & Bear has been extremely busy since. Coupled with the release of their debut EP With Emperor Antarctica, the Sydney outfit has taken to the stage with the likes of Angus & Julia Stone, Laura Marling and Mumford & Sons.

Boy and Bear will be joined on tour by the UK’s Mike Rosenberg who performs under the name Passenger. Flight Of The Crow, Passanger’s new album, due for release on 23rd September, features collaborations with Lior, Josh Pyke, Katie Noonan, Kate Miller Heidke and others including Boy & Bear.
