Birds Of Tokyo - The Universes Tour - Birds Of Tokyo

To celebrate the release of their breathtaking sophomore album, UNIVERSES, BIRDS OF TOKYO have announced a huge 24-show national tour. After selling out every show of their ‘Silhouettic’ single tour in May, The UNIVERSES Tour presents an opportunity to those who missed out and to those who couldn’t get enough.

BIRDS OF TOKYO are renowned for their heartfelt, interactive and amazingly energetic live shows, with eager punters lining up hours before doors open to ensure they score a front-row position. Lead man Ian Kenny (named by Beat Magazine as “Australia’s premier vocalist”) centers the act tightly with his intense and passionate performances. The UNIVERSES Tour will be no different.

Less than 18-months after their stunning full-length debut, Day One, BIRDS OF TOKYO are ready to present their breathtaking sophomore album, UNIVERSES. Already spawning the sure to be timeless tracks Silhouettic and (new single) Broken Bones, UNIVERSES was independently recorded and produced in Australia by the band and mixed by Tim Palmer (U2, The Cure, Pearl Jam) in North Hollywood. The album has an incredibly unique depth about it. It is set for an independent release on July 5.

The initial pressing of UNIVERSES will include a limited edition CD/DVD featuring behind the scenes recordings and making-of footage for the video clips of both ‘Silhouettic’ and ‘Broken Bones’.
