After heading to Tassie last weekend to play the MS Fest (Multiple Sclerosis) the British India lads are back in Melbourne, checking their amps and booking flights, in preparation for their single launch tour that kicks off this week!
The new single “March Into the Ocean” has hit the airwaves nationally and last week took out the very impressive Channel [V] Ripe Clip of the Week… |
With the epic 26-date March Into the Ocean tour mere days away, the boys are very excited to announce that Melbourne’s Boy in a Box and Adelaide’s City Riots will be joining them as they rock around Australia throughout Autumn.
After gracing the stage at the Corner Hotel last weekend for fellow Melbournians, Alpine, BIAB will be joining British India on their East Coast tour and making a much anticipated appearance at the Adelaide and North Perth shows.
The first single, ‘Moon Comes Down’ has already been a hit on triple j, and the follow up single ‘Glitter, Gold, Ruin’ is sure to follow suit shortly; before you know it you’ll be singing along to its catchy hooks and solid vocals.
Make sure you check him out, 2011 is definitely the year of Boy in A Box, get in now before the band wagon jumpers do!
Indie rockers City Riots will be opening the East Coast and Adelaide shows. These South Australians spent 2010 travelling between America and Australia, playing the Open Arms and Coaster Festival in Oz, and South By South West and the CMJ Music Marathon in New York, as well as opening for the Smashing Pumpkins nationally when they were here last year. With the band are currently putting the finishing touches on their debut album with Woody Annison, this is one support band that is well worth arriving early for.
