SHADY HAZE OF WINTER TOUR
featuring Hungry Kids of Hungary, The Holidays and Artisan Guns (NZ)

As announced by lead singer/guitarist Dean McGrath yesterday on triple j, Hungry Kids Of Hungary will hit the road in August, embarking on, let’s call it, a pre-album release warm-up, bringing back to Aussie audiences what the world has been enjoying for the past two months. The band has toured extensively across America and the UK playing such famed venues as The Viper Room in Los Angeles, the Mercury Lounge in NYC, the Borderline in London and the Camden Barfly.

In this time their latest single ‘Wristwatch’ has become a radio hit peaking at number three on the AIR Chart and will finally make its home-turf debut after being roadtested across the globe. Additionally, the band has completed recording of their forthcoming debut album and mixing is underway as you read this.

Entitled the Shady Haze Of Winter Tour , the jaunt boasts not only Hungry Kids’ magical pop prowess but also that of Sydney’s The Holidays and New Zealand’s Artisan Guns.

With singles ‘Golden Sky’ and ‘Moonlight Hours’ currently all over the radio, The Holidays are also gearing up and creating anticipation for their debut album due for release later in 2010. It might be cold outside but their summer vibes and electropical dance numbers will certainly warm things up.

Similarly so with NZ’s Artisan Guns whose debut EP Hearts has pricked ears across their native and they now continue their foray into winning over Australia with their quirky pop-folk infusion.

‘Wristwatch’ currently available for free download from www.hungrykidsofhungary.com
Debut album out in September.
