It’s been nearly three years since Birds Of Tokyo did a full national tour but with their new track “Good Lord” riding high in the charts the band has finally announced a string of dates around Australia later this year. Tickets will go on sale to members of their mailing list from 9am tomorrow and to the general public next Monday. Full date, venue and ticketing details are listed below.
“Good Lord” is currently at #1 on iTunes, top 5 on the radio airplay charts and rising rapidly up the Spotify and Apple Music rankings so it’s no wonder these gigs have been dubbed “The Good Lord Tour”.
The haunting song is a raw rendering of lead singer Ian Kenny’s marriage implosion.
“To be honest it’s been a rollercoaster couple of years”, he explains. “I was basically in pieces when we were writing this song and maybe that intensity explains why it’s striking such a chord with people. It’s great that something good can come out of something bad – funny how often that happens if you can just get through the rough patches in life.”
