Dead Letter Circus have released a brief but thorough run of headlining Australian dates that will take the band throughout the oft-neglected Western Australia and South Australia, as well as Brissy, Melbourne and, of course, Sydney. Joining the crew for the long haul will be Breaking Orbit, and the good news doesn’t stop there – DLC’s swag is said to be chock full of brand-new jams.

It’s been set to fire on all cylinders within the Dead Letter Circus camp of late. Having completed a solid stint of live performances throughout summer, including a slot at Festival Of The Sun and Pyramid Rock – and who could forget Big Day Out? – the bands have channelled their momentum into studio time as they put their heads down to get cracking on the follow-up to 2010's award winning This Is The Warning.

Since their debut full-length effort, The Time Traveller, Breaking Orbit have proved to be something of an unstoppable force. Their intricate collection of soundscapes and vivid vocal melodies, all held together with tribal beats, has earned praise throughout the land, and are a worthy addition to this tour.
