Floodlights ‘Can You Feel It’ Australian Tour w/ Special Guests
Floodlights are back on the road in October for the ‘Can You Feel It’ Australian Tour.
After selling out all of their headline shows so far this year, the band will embark on a tour of Australia’s east coast before heading back to Europe in November. This includes their biggest venues to date in Melbourne (Northcote Theatre) and Sydney (Crowbar).
Floodlights’ live performance is raw and intimate, intertwined with powerful outbursts and marching rhythms. Evocative lyricism lies at the heart of their songwriting and is enhanced by their unique sound. They explore themes of personal turbulence, national identity and the Australian landscape as a form of escapism. Floodlights write honestly and poetically in the hope that it resonates with others.
Gaining global attention with 2019’s sold-out EP 'Backyard' and 2020’s critically acclaimed debut album 'From a View', Floodlights went on to play sold-out shows and festivals across Australia. Amongst this they supported Pavement (USA) and black midi (UK). Their debut international trip soon followed for SXSW in Austin, Texas.
In April 2023, Floodlights released their second studio album 'Painting of My Time', showcasing a natural progression and evolution as a band and individuals – It is a culmination of all that they experience inside and out of the group. Finalist for the Australian Music Prize, the record obtained national recognition. Floodlights played to countless devoted crowds while touring Australia, Europe and the UK for the better half of 2023. Back on home soil, they finished off the year with a truly triumphant performance at Meredith Music Festival.
Floodlights went on to perform at Laneway Festival, as well as Panama Festival to begin 2024 before sinking their teeth into further writing and recording.
The tour will be celebrating the turning of a page – a new way, a new road.
