Temples
Ticketholders are advised to turn off their minds, relax and float downstream on arrival.
Overview
Australia has been wandering merrily down the psychedelic rabbit hole more fervently than usual over the last couple of years. Big breakthrough names like Tame Impala, Jagwar Ma and Jinja Safari enchanted festival crowd after festival crowd, making it easy for newcomers like Richard In Your Mind, The Frowning Clouds, The Otchkies and everyone involved with the Nuggets compilation to find solid audiences for their whimsical, sitar-fuelled jams.
So, when British psychedelic newcomers Temples announced their first Australian tour, slow nods of heartfelt approval spread through the states and territories. Hailing from Kettering, Northamptonshire and lead by the unbelievably British-named James Edward Bagshaw, Temples found traction in Australia after their heroes Johnny Marr and Noel Gallagher gave them ups for their debut single 'Shelter Song'. Soon followed their debut studio album Sun Structures via Heavenly Records, featured on triple j and praised for its neo-psychedelic prowess.
Temples will journey south down the East Coast with Sydney psych-pop favourites Deep Sea Arcade, headed for the Corner Hotel on Saturday May 10. Ticketholders are advised to turn off their minds, relax and float downstream on arrival.
