Gyroscope Announce National Australia Tour

Having already conducted two extremely successful tours in support of their number one album Breed Obsession, Gyroscope will take to the road throughout August and September to deliver a 36 date national tour. The Australia tour celebrates the release of the bands third single, fittingly titled Australia and is the largest tour ever undertaken by the band. Kicking off at Splendour in the Grass they’ll do a lap of the map, taking in major cities, regional towns, and suburbia along the way.

Released on Saturday July 12, Gyroscope’s new single Australia is testimony to a young band willing to challenge themselves and with this track they’ve superbly crafted an anthemic major crossover hit which has already been embraced widely by radio around the country.

Special guests for the Australia tour are Shihad who compliment one of the great bills to be seen in Australia this year with the announcement they are to tour almost everywhere with Gyroscope. Shihad return in splendid fashion with their new album Beautiful Machine which includes singles One Will Hear The Other and Vampires. Also touring are fellow WA rockers Sugar Army, one of the most exhilarating new young bands to come out of WA for sometime, who will certainly complete what will be one serious rockin’ ride on the Australia tour!

Finally, as a very special treat for their hometown fans, Gyroscope are pleased to announce their local buddies Jebediah will join the fanfare for the last major city show of the tour in Perth. It’s been a few years between drinks for Jebediah, however they recently rekindled the fire and returned to the studio to work on new material with a new album expected to be released later this year. WA fans can expect some serious rock’n’roll antics and much fanfare for what will be a fitting end to the Australia tour as all three WA bands take to the stage at Metro City in Perth!
