Battles has joined the list of Big Day Out sideshows, with performances in Melbourne and Sydney added to their tour.
January and February are going to be mighty busy next year. First there were the announcements to all the festivals, each with some pretty fantastic lineups. And now the sideshow announcements are trickling out, with many tickling our (and yours) fancies. Latest to the list is Battles, who will have 2 exclusive headline shows in January for lucky Melbourne and Sydney-ites.
This will be their first trip to Australia since their highly acclaimed album 'Gloss Drop', and their first trip here since their 2009 tour. Long-time Battles fans will be excited to see them back on our shores, and we're sure it's going to up for contention what tracks make it to the setlist. Nonetheless, tickets will sell out quickly, so make sure you're sitting at the computer with your clicking finger at the ready right at 9am on Monday 28 November.
