With their debut album “A Book Like This” officially released in the UK today and a 30 date overseas tour scheduled for April/May incorporating the UK, Ireland and Europe, the Northern Beaches duo Angus and Julia Stone will definitely be looking forward to heading home for their national tour in June.

Angus and Julia are no strangers in the UK as they spent most of March supporting Newton Faulkner on his sold out UK tour performing to over 20,000 people and also opening for David Gray in Manchester. “A Book Like This” has already received amazing reviews from the often cynical UK press with MOJO giving it 3 stars, and UNCUT magazine 4 stars and exclaiming “their understated magnetic live shows here surely mean this Australian brother-sister duo’s sizeable homeland following will soon be matched in the UK”. The superlatives keep coming including Nottingham Evening Post stating that “there’s certainly enough evidence here to justify the hype with it’s whimsical and dreamy folk album packed with beautiful melodies” and The Clash magazine highlighting the special packaging “The Australian brother-sister duo’s debut reminds you of the pleasure of the physical album”.

In Australia, Angus & Julia have just played to thousands of people at The Blues Festivals around the country and the album “A Book Like This” has already sold 50,000+ albums. While the pleasingly unassuming Angus & Julia are refreshingly modest about their talent and remain nonplussed regarding their success, their star undeniably continues to ascend at pace.
