The Laurels USA Tour Fundraiser

The Laurels are taking on America. But to survive the journey, they need a few more greenbacks.

Overview

Touring is a risky business. Relationships can go sour. Promoters can go AWOL. Local gangs can threaten your welfare. And, once in a while, the venue you're playing might even erupt into flames.

Which is why we're cheering on Sydney four-piece The Laurels as they gallantly embark on their first US tour this April. The psychedelic rockers had a brilliant 2012, signing with Rice Is Nice before releasing their debut album, Plains, to much critical thumb-uppery. Now, these brave souls are risking love, life and limb with the hope of turning perfect American strangers into lifelong fans.

And they're looking for your help.

In order to avoid sleeping at Taco Bell, The Laurels are throwing a tour fundraising party at the Standard on Saturday, April 6. With support from longtime pals World's End Press, Zeahorse and East River, the night is all about sending The Laurels off in style (with a few extra Benjamins for the road).
