The Adults 2018 Australian east coast tour
Jon Toogood’s The Adults are heading to Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne this September to launch their new LP, HAJA available now.
With a fluid cast of collaborators helmed by Shihad frontman Toogood, this live incarnation of The Adults includes electric-blue witch hop pioneer Estère (who features on the album’s first single, Bloodlines), hip hop artist / rapper Raiza Biza (who’s found on the second single Boomtown & album cut That Gold), drummer Ben Lemi of Trinity Roots and jazzy guitarist / vocalist Emily C. Browning.
After releasing an album with Shihad in 2014, Jon began to search for ideas for the second chapter in the critically acclaimed Adults journey, eventually gathering inspiration from his wedding in Khartoum, Sudan and the traditional music, Aghani-Al-Banat, performed as part of the ceremony.
Much like the first Adults album, HAJA features an exciting cast of collaborators, including upcoming New Zealand artists Chelsea Jade, Estère, JessB, Miloux, and Raiza Biza, along with the award-winning Aaradhna and recent breakthrough artist Kings.
Fri 7th Sept - Brisbane, The Brightside - tickets from Oztix
Sat 8th Sept - Sydney, The Landsdowne - tickets from Oztix
Sun 9th Sept - Melbourne, Northcote Social Club - tickets from the Northcote Social Club
