Groove-based funk sextet Cheap Fakes are back with their self-described 'late night cactus jazz' announcing an east-coast tour ahead of a new album release.
'Deep Space' is the title of the new record that infuses elements of ska, funk and that zesty 'late night cactus jazz' with seductive brasslines, intricate melodies and infectious grooves. 'Deep Space' is released 4 July.
Cheap Fakes will road-test 'Deep Space' with a slew of east-coast tour dates across the next three months that include festival appearances at Bello Winter Festival, Splendour and Caloundra Music Festival.
"We are absoutely ecstatic," Cheap Fake's frontman, Hayden Andrews says about the release of 'Deep Space'.
"It's been a long process with this one, just because we had the freedom to take as long as we wanted to record. We did it all ourselves and our guitarist produced it."
Hayden also promises punters an eclectic live experience. "They can expect an intense set with lots of big moments that are really full and then a lot of breakdown moments."
Album pre-sales and tickets to the shows are now available via the band's website; click here for more details.
