Sleeping With Sirens announce new Australian tour

Catch the US outfit in Melbourne and Adelaide during their Gossip World Tour

Sleeping With Sirens are bringing their Gossip World Tour to Australia in April 2018.

The Orlando alt rockers return to Oz for the first time since 2015, when they played a string of sold-out shows across the country.

SWS hit the road in support of their latest album, Gossip, which they unleashed on the world in September.

They’ve also gone ahead and confirmed three support bands for the tour next year: Chase Atlantic, Lower Than Atlantis and The Faim.

We’re also stoked to announce that we’ll be heading down under for a handful of special shows next year in Australia and New Zealand! Pre-sale starts Wednesday at 9:00am AEDT with general on-sale Friday, Dec. 8, at the same time.

Discussing the creative and personal progression of the record, vocalist Kellin Quinn says, “The story of Gossip really begins in me transitioning from a boy to a man.

“I grew up basically my entire life playing music in this group. This record is me figuring out who I’m supposed to be as a musician, a husband, and a father. It’s a hard, scary, rewarding, and daring process that gets chronicled in the lyrics.

“Musically, I feel like it’s the first Sirens record that sounds specifically like us. We took chances, experimented, and continued to do what we do best: create art. It’s something new. It has an authentic sound that we’ve been working towards all this time.”
