After selling out almost every show on their national Other Voices, Other Rooms album tour, THE GETAWAY PLAN are getting ready to embark on their largest headline journey yet. The Where the City Meets The Sea Tour - named after their latest hit single - will run from June to August, taking in seventeen cities and regional centers around the country.
THE GETAWAY PLAN’s debut album Other Voices, Other Rooms (released in February of this year) was greeted with an overwhelming response from the fans and industry alike. Triple J made it their feature album of the week and record crowds flocked to the band’s in-store launches at JB HiFi in Melbourne and Utopia Records in Sydney. The album debuted at an incredible #14 on the National ARIA Charts and #1 on the AIR Independent Charts, surprising many by remaining in both months after it’s release. The band’s first national tour in support of the album sold out in all but one venue, with hundreds of fans turned away from the capacity venues, and hugely energetic responses from the crowds within. The band has since played national support to Millencolin (US) and will embark on Kisschasy’s ‘Skins and Bones’ tour in May / June.
After the success of the album’s first single Streetlight on Triple J and Channel V, THE GETAWAY PLAN have successfully crossed over with their second single Where the City Meets the Sea. The track is now firmly on rotation at Nova and was one of the most played songs on Triple J so far this year – meanwhile it’s highly engaging video has been in the Top 10 most played songs on Channel V for over a month, and has clocked up over 50,000 plays on YouTube and MySpace. The official release date of the single is June 7, when it will be available in all good digital and record stores with exclusive b-sides.
With THE GETAWAY PLAN in line to become one of Australia’s greatest success stories, tickets for the Where The City Meets The Sea tour are sure to sell out. Catch THE GETAWAY PLAN in all their glory and while you can still say you we’re there before the take over.
Where The City Meets The Sea will be available in-stores and to download from June 7, thanks to Boomtown Records. Do not miss your chance to see THE GETAWAY PLAN live in all their glory as they tour the county on the Where The City Meets The Sea tour.
