Deerhunter

Overview

Deerhunter's Australian tour caps off a stellar year for the Atlanta five-piece — one that's seen the release of their sixth album, Monomania, as well as a stint curating the final All Tomorrow's Parties festival in the UK. Their gig at Melbourne's Hi-Fi Bar is a sideshow from their appearance at the Meredith Music Festival, where they'll be headlining alongside Chic and the Brian Jonestown Massacre.

Fronted by lead singer Bradfod Cox — a man whose prolific catalogue of solo projects such as Atlas Sound have made him distinctive in his own right — Deerhunter's live shows are charged with a great kind of unstable energy that make this rare Australian show unmissable.
