Today Lemuria announces its first ever tour of Australia and SE Asia, with dates in Jan. and Feb. of 2014. The band will wrap up 2013 with four more North American shows before preparing for the international tour.
“We’ve been reading travel books and trying to learn enough Indonesian to get us by (Bersulang!), which just compounds the excitement as I learn about all the new (old) places we’ll be visiting and the people we’ll be meeting. We are incredibly honored to be invited to play in Australia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and The Philippines, and extremely grateful for the opportunity.” -Max Gregor, Lemuria
Lemuria have seen an incredible reaction to their most recent album The Distance Is So Big, available now through Bridge9 Records. Critics on both sides of the pond have hailed this to be their finest album to date, with plaudits from the likes of NPR, SPIN, Alternative Press, and Kerrang!, Rock Sound, This is Fake DIY in the UK. Recorded with J Robbins (Against Me!, Jawbreaker, The Promise Ring), The Distance Is So Big is arguably their most intelligent and forward thinking release, whilst retaining the sweet melodies, introspective lyrics and off-kilter time signatures for which the band are known.
