Dappled Cities 'Lake Air' Australian Tour 2012
Description:

Following the recent release of Dappled Cities' celebrated 4th studio album, 'Lake Air', the band are thrilled to announce their first national headline tour in more than 2 years. This spring Dappled Cities will deliver their incredible new show to major cities around the country, and will launch the tour with their first-ever live performances in Darwin.

“Lake Air is a distinguished opus in Australian songwriting.” ***** The Orange Press

“Lake Air is one of the best albums you'll hear all year. At its heart a stunning set of songs; it's the sound of a band at the peak of its creative powers." ***** The Australian

Critically acclaimed European electro/pop artist JAPE will join the circuit as special guest on this tour of Lake Air. JAPE’s album ‘Ocean Of Frequency’ was recently awarded the Irish Album Of The Year. Currently based in Sweden, JAPE’s inclusion on the tour is a rare treat for Australian audiences. More local supports & DJ’s will be announced in coming weeks.

“….blending guitars and synthetic beats to great effect. He’s probably bored of being called the Irish Beck, so we won’t. Instead, let’s just say no-one has done this type of thing as well since… well, you get the picture” **** NME

Fans who are excited about the tour have an extra incentive to purchase tickets early and secure a limited edition copy of ‘Lake Air’ on vinyl which will be waiting for them at each show.

Dappled bassist says Alex Moore “Lake Air was the album we always wanted to make. Playing it live is going to be something really, really special. We are so damn excited. Prepare to get unreal.”

Jape's main man Richie Egan is equally as thrilled to join the bill, "We're really looking forward to playing in Australia. It's going to be great to get to know the Dappled Cities guys and hopefully they can give us some advice about how to deal with the flying cockroaches."
