Today, Sydney’s Tigertown reveal their new single “Lonely Cities” from their forthcoming debut EP of the same name. Australia’s Triple J gave the single its debut play earlier today, comparing the band to HAIM and Of Monsters And Men and describing the tracks as “a safari of sounds… a glorious mix of everything you need on a summer afternoon.” Pigeons & Planes premiered the track online HERE, saying: “This quartet from Sydney, Australia is starting to heat up. Tigertown prove you can still have fun while you’re lonely, with an infectious intensity to their group-singing and nimble rhythm guitars.”
The band broke into 2016 earlier this month with the premiere of debut offering “Bullet From the Gun” on Zane Lowe + FADER HERE. The two tracks arrive ahead of their international debut Lonely Cities EP – out February 5th via Neon Gold / Atlantic – and forthcoming US tour supporting Neon Gold labelmate St. Lucia.
A family, a band, all together now, Sydney’s Tigertown share a special familial bond. At the band’s core lies husband-wife duo Chris (guitar) and Charlie Collins (lead vox + synth), rounded out by the former’s brother Alexi (keys) and sister Elodie (bass). Already boasting a dedicated following and Triple J support in their native Australia, the band set their sights internationally last year, making their mark as one of the breakout acts of SXSW 2015. The new year finds them touring with St. Lucia and signed to acclaimed tastemaker label Neon Gold (Charli XCX, Christine And The Queens, Marina And The Diamonds, et. al) and Atlantic Records, as they ready their international debut Lonely Cities EP for release February 5th, produced by BØRNS principle collaborator Tommy English.
