Boy & Bear

Overview

Boy & Bear, the lovechild of Triple J Unearthed and Australia’s indie folk scene, will be showcasing their debut album Moonfire on their Remembering The Mexican Tour this month. Full of the uplifting choral harmonies and lyrical ballad-style rock exemplified on popular singles ‘Rabbit Song’ and ‘The Feeding Line’, the tour will be rolling into Sydney's State Theatre on the 29th and 30th May.

Their debut album is named after a $2 DVD they watched on the road touring: A 1970's trucking saga also titled Moonfire. Although their cinematic taste is questionable, Boy & Bear’s music ability scores high: The boys have secured five ARIA awards and have entered Triple J’s hottest 100 three times, with single ‘Feeding Line’ reaching the top five.

These Sydney-born-and-bred boys now look forward to a mammoth 25-date tour, dropping into every corner of the country from Adelaide to Albury, Brisbane to Bunbury and Cairns to Canberra. They will be supported by Tin Sparrow (Matt Corby’s support act for his recent Sydney stint at Oxford Art Factory) and Jungle Giants.
