Elbow will make a much anticipated and welcome return to Australia for four special shows.

Fellow Brits and special guests, Bombay Bicycle Club, join Elbow on tour in what will be their first Australian shows.

Elbow’s return visit follows quickly after four mesmerising performances last July, including sold out shows in Melbourne and Sydney and a remarkable set at the Splendour in the Grass festival.

Elbow have consistently delivered impeccable, brilliant live shows.

The band’s graceful, lush orchestral sounds – a gently sublime mix of the intricately elegant, poignant, and elative, rousing crescendos – serve up stunning renditions from their five-album repertoire. Up front, Guy Garvey fills the room with his angelic vocals, undeniable stage presence and natural charisma; his generous between-song banter building a strong rapport between band and audience.

“‘Open Arms’ was triumphant, ‘Station Approach’ possessed an almost hypnotic jubilation and set closing ‘One Day Like This’ was positively euphoric.” Drum Media

“We think we may have gone to musical heaven…” Inpress

2011 marks Elbow’s 20-year anniversary and the release of their fifth studio album, ‘Build A Rocket Boys’.

‘Build A Rocket Boys’ follows debut album ‘Asleep in the Back’, ‘Cast of Thousands’, ‘Leaders of the Free World’ and their fourth album, the 2008 Mercury Music Prize winning ‘The Seldom Seen Kid’.

North London’s Bombay Bicycle Club, opening for Elbow on all shows, have released three albums in as many years.

Winning a competition to perform at V Festival while still at school, the youthful band released their gold, debut album, ‘I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose’, in 2009. Wasting no time, a stripped-down, acoustic, second album ‘Flaws’, was released a year later making the UK top 10. ‘A Different Kind of Fix’ is Bombay Bicycle Club’s latest offering, cited as a their best record yet and a promise of more to come.

The band have built a fiercely loyal UK fan-base to which they’re about to add a whole lot more Australians.

Immerse in the sounds of Elbow, with special guests Bombay Bicycle Club.
