Fresh from playing the recent Vintage Vibes in the Adelaide Hills, Aussie rockers West Thebarton return with new music and their own headline tour.
'George Michael' is the band's sparkly new punk-rock burner that also thrashes with an intense ferocity – it'll also feature on West Thebarton's forthcoming EP 'Victory' (due 2 June)."This song is bottling that feeling of being stuck in a moment of time, and all that you want to do is soak in that something 'amazing'," the band says.
"It's almost like the world stops and your brain does a 360 when you're looking over a view that's so fkn beautiful that everything seems to not matter at that moment."
Although relatively quiet lately, with their heads down in and out of the studio, the band is gearing up for a busy period with a four-date run (Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Adelaide) commencing next month that they say is the 'beginning of an exciting road that winds all the way to the end of 2024'.
"On the road in May, June to see all of your lovely faces after the longest time away! 'George Michael' is out everywhere. We spent some time getting back to what we love and producing our proudest body of work yet. See you all soon."
Tickets are on sale.
