The Frontier Touring Company announce that ethereal songstress Brous will be joining Patrick Wolf at his Australian shows this September.
Based in Melbourne, Brous (pronounced ‘Bruce’) has gained huge support from the industry and public alike. She first popped up on the radar with the wonderfully psychedelic track ‘Streamers’:
‘From the tricky acceleration of its first minute to its eventual Komeda-via-Valley of the Dolls creepiness, it’s a miracle of structure steeped in retro soundtrack fetishism. It’s pop with jazz chops, and it lets Brous wrap herself around it like a luxurious fur.’ – Mess + Noise
From the first few notes, it is apparent that the talented performer is inspired by the Europop of yesteryear. Brous’ music would be equally suited in a smoky 1960s lounge as it would be on any stage today.
‘Sophia Brous who seems to have a set of pipes to rival Kimbra and Felicity Groom. Her vocals encompass everything from sultriness to sweetness and from lightness to the plain haunting with a delivery equally as good at the operatic as it is plain old rock.’ – Pages Digital
Brous is the perfect accompaniment to Wolf’s own brand of lush avant-garde pop. This run of shows will showcase two incredibly gifted singer-songwriters doing what they do best.
These performances will see Wolf taking the stage playing grand piano, Celtic harp, dulcimer and more, he will be accompanied by one other musician on stage.
Those lucky enough to attend one of these shows will be treated to a set list unique from any other on the tour. Wolf will be performing a variety of songs from the five studio albums he has released over his impressive ten year career, including ‘The City’ and ‘Time of My Life’.
Don’t miss the chance to see both Brous and Patrick Wolf’s songs come alive when they tour together this September.
