Getting personal at up-close venues around the country, the Philly Jays will be creating their very own karaoke bars where some lucky fans will be able to get up on stage and join the band to sing their favourite Philadelphia Grand Jury songs.

Rumour has it the shows will give Aussie audiences their first taste of the ARIA Award winning band’s highly anticipated third album, expected to drop in the not too distant future.
It’s been three long years since The Temper Trap last undertook a headline tour of Australia and four years since the release of their ARIA #1 self titled Platinum sophomore album.

José González 2016 Australian Tour
Conceived as the third part of an acoustic trilogy complementing 2006’s ‘Veneer’ and 2007’s ‘In Our Nature’, the album is almost entirely self-produced, becoming as González sees it, his “zoomed-out eye on humanity on a small, pale blue dot in a cold, sparse and unfriendly space”.
Mastering the rare craft of spellbinding audiences armed only with his classical guitar and gentle melodies, José González will deliver solo performances imbued with his daringly understated ...
