ERNEST ELLIS + SHINING BIRD Co-headline tour starts this week!


After releasing two of the best local albums in the past year, Sydney’s Ernest Ellis and Austinmer’s Shining Bird will be heading out on a short co-headline tour in May/June 2014. These shows look set to bring a perfect measure of sleaze and bliss to stages along the east coast, in order to celebrate the respective albums—COLD DESIRE and LEISURE COAST—in style.
 
Ernest Ellis and Shining Bird will host an extra special show in Sydney, combining live performance with an art exhibition.

Following a call out to visual artists for works tied (in any way) to the titles of the two albums—COLD DESIRE and LEISURE COAST, the unique show will take place at St Stephen’s Church Hall, Newtown. Once the artworks are gathered, Ernest Ellis and Shining will host a night on May 17 where the works will be exhibited and the bands will play a set each.
 
COLD DESIRE and LEISURE COAST are available now through all good music retailers.
