Two of the bright young things of the Australian independent music scene, Parades & the Seabellies, are preparing to stake their claim on 2010 by announcing a co-headline tour. To coincide with important new music by each band, The Young Cubs & Past Lives Tour will introduce music from their debut album releases to Australian audiences for the first time in March/April. Newcastle band the Seabellies recently completed recording their cinematic sounding LP, ‘By Limbo Lake’, with Wayne Connolly (You Am I, Josh Pyke, The Vines) and have just released a follow-up to lead single ‘Orange X’, called ‘Young Cubs’. Their 6-piece, multi-instrumentalist setup presents a controlled chaos and live energy unique to these shores. the Seabellies have earned their live chops playing over the past 2 years alongside the likes of Beck on the V Festival, and more recently US band Eulogies. Parades’ are a young art-rock band from Sydney, featuring Dan Cunningham, Tim Jenkins, Michael Scarpin and familiar face Jonathan Boulet – Parades’ debut album ‘Foreign Tapes’ is set for an early April release and their lead single ‘Past Lives’ was recently added to Triple J. The Parades’ album is expansive and ambitious; a haze of pop harmonies, post rock guitars and electronic meanderings. Their live show is equally as impressive. Parades’ have already played Homebake and Field Day, toured the east coast with Gomez and are now looking forward to playing with the Seabellies on this special tour. Musically these bands are perfectly matched. As an added twist, the playing order of each band will not be decided until the evening of the show. And the two bands have invited a selection of their favourite independent electronic artists to help get the party started in each state.
