UK’S Lambrini Girls Announce Their Debut Australian Tour

Tour Announcement

2 Sept

Handsome Tours are elated to announce that Lambrini Girls will be coming to Australia for the very first time! 12 months after the release of their outrageously and undeniable debut album, Who Let The Dogs Out, the duo of Phoebe Lunny (vocals/guitar - she/they) and Selin Macieira (bass - she/they) will be coming to Australian shores, playing The Northcote Theatre in Melbourne, The Princess Theatre in Brisbane, The Metro Theatre in Sydney, and The Rechabite in Perth from Feb-March.

The Brighton-based duo has spent the last few years on a tear in more ways than one. Their debut album, released via City Slang, saw them grace the covers of DIY, NME, Kerrang! and NOTION, with features from Variety, The Line Of Best Fit, Pitchfork and Teen Vogue. They performed live for KEXP and BBC Introducing and received features and playlisting from Triple R, 2SER, Edge Radio and Double J.

Making a reputation for themselves as one of the best live bands to come out of the UK in the past decade, the duo has played over 100 shows, sharing bills with Gilla Band, Shame, Frank Carter, The Rattlesnakes and Iggy Pop, playing festivals Glastonbury and Iceland Airwaves and selling out headline shows across UK, Europe and the US.

Phoebe and Selin’s creative chemistry was born out of their instinct for razor-sharp commentary, confronting hot-button societal issues with a lyrical voice that is biting, playful and unmistakably their own. Their combination of blunt-force punk, social critique and barbed humour has garnered comparisons to riot grrrl icons Bikini Kill and Huggy Bear.

Recorded with Gilla Band’s Daniel Fox with mixing by Seth Manchester (Mdou Moctar / Battles / Model/Actriz), their debut album Who Let The Dogs Out distills their fury into a single body of work. Featuring singles ‘Love’, 'Big Dick Energy’, ‘Company Culture’, and the iconic ‘Cuntology 101', the 11-track album bottles everything wrong with the modern world and shakes it up. If peppering political songs with humour is like sticking a sparkler in some bread, then their debut is like a fireworks display in the factory itself: strange, dangerous, exciting, and it rips through a laundry list of social ills.

Don’t miss your chance to witness Lambrini Girls’ explosive live show! Pre-sale tickets go on sale at 10 am Thursday, 4 September, with general on sale from 10 am Friday, 5 September at handsometours.com
