2018 was a massive year for punks DZ Deathrays: they released their third LP 'Bloody Lovely', received their third ARIA Award nomination, brought Murray 'OG Red Wiggle' Cook to the stage at Splendour, toured Europe and South Africa, and completed two massive tours at home.
You'd think that would be enough for Shane Parsons and Simon Ridley to enjoy a quiet start to 2019; not likely with DZ Deathrays announcing an epic regional tour spread across February, March and April.
The tour will also feature hand-picked supports with slacker rock trio Good Doogs on the WA line-up and grunge outfit Moaning Lisa joining for the remaining tour dates. Bonza.
But don't fret city heads, with your favourite shredders already announced for a number of metro festivals including St Kilda Festival in Melbourne, the opening of Lion Arts Factory in Adelaide, City Limits Festival in Perth and Garden Party in Wollongong.
And if the lads weren't busy enough, before they jet off for their first Australian tour of 2019, they'll jump aboard an iron bird and fly to LA to record a new album; and this time joining them will be their long-time live band mate and now official third member of DZ Deathrays, Lachlan Ewbank. Shaka.
