In February 2009, The Getaway Plan shocked Australian fans and media by calling it quits just a year

after the release of their smash hit debut album "Other Voices, Other Rooms". The album that spawned

three radio hits and made them one of the most successful young bands in Australia, sent the band on a

hectic touring schedule that included three sold out headline tours and ended with their first appearance

on the Big Day Out.

But that same schedule caused the young four piece to burn out, eventually deciding to pack it in and

move onto other projects. Each member embarked on different paths, pursuing musical endeavors such

as The Amity Affliction, Young Heretics, Deez Nuts and Hopeless, while The Getaway Plan continued to

garner radio play and sales despite the bands absence.

Reuniting for charity in September 2010, The Getaway Plan played two shows at the 1200 capacity

Billboards - selling out both in just 9 hours and proving that the band's popularity has not slowed down in

the 18 months since their demise.

The shows also gave the band the life and energy they were missing 18 months prior. And through

practicing and reuniting post-show, the band decided that the time is ripe to give it all another shot. They

will return in 2011 as a full time recording and touring band, with a new album expected out late Winter.

Their first tour will be the RECLAMATION tour this coming February, with main support from young

Sydney five piece TONIGHT ALIVE, fresh from recording their debut album in the United States with

Mark Trombino. Opening the shows will be close friends Secrets In Scale from Melbourne, who are

preparing to release their debut album Desert Mouth early in 2011 their DMT Mixtape is currently

available at the bands website.

Tickets are on sale December 16, with no extra shows to be added in any city. Fans are warned to

purchase tickets early to avoid disappointment.

Hello friends,

Were happy to announce that were currently in the middle of writing new music for a release some time

next year.

In celebration of this, were also going to be doing a small tour in February, playing a selection of new,

and old material.

Thanks to everyone who has been patient with us and stuck with us over this time.

Looking forward to seeing you all again.

Much love,

The Getaway Plan
