Melbourne’s Clowns have today shared their new single ‘Pickle‘, together with the announcement of a national album tour in June which will see the band perform in 10 cities around the country.
The energetic track is taken from Clowns’ forthcoming third full-length ‘Lucid Again‘, out on May 12th via Poison City Records.
‘Pickle‘ is the second single from the forthcoming LP and seamlessly combines a powerful punch of pop, punk and hardcore.
Listen below.
To celebrate the release of ‘Lucid Again‘, Clowns will launch the album with a 10-date national tour in June for some of their largest headline shows to date, joined by special guests Night Birds. Kicking things off in Cairns, the band will make their way across the country including stops in Darwin, Perth, Gold Coast, Brisbane, Newcastle, Sydney, Adelaide and Hobart before wrapping up in Melbourne for a hometown party, unleashing their latest offering live for the first time and to deliver the wild and chaotic live performances they have become renowned for.
Scroll down for dates and venues.
With two albums under their belt, namely ‘I’m Not Right‘ (2013) and 2015’s effort ‘Bad Blood‘, Clowns have sold out headline shows across Australia, Europe, North America and Asia, shared the stage with punk icons such as Descendents, Rise Against and NOFX, and performed at international festivals including SXSW, Riot Fest and Groezrock to name a few.
