Self-proclaimed pioneers of “Y2KCORE,” Oxford four-piece South Arcade are set to bring their nostalgia-drenched pop-rock and sassy alt-punk to the East Coast this August, announcing their first-ever Australian headline tour.
It’s been a meteoric 12 months for the UK outfit, who have rapidly become one of Britain’s most talked-about breakout acts. Fresh off a massive festival run across Europe — including Download Festival, TRNSMT and Rock For People — South Arcade are riding a wave of momentum that shows no signs of slowing. Australian fans got their first taste of the band live at Good Things Festival last December, where their packed-out sets won over thousands of new converts.
The band have kept the momentum going with a steady stream of new music. Latest single “DEADMEAT” landed just last week, following April’s “SUPERMAN” — the band’s biggest streaming debut to date, racking up over 1.5 million Spotify streams.
Between standout tracks like “FEAR OF HEIGHTS,” “Supermodels” and “Drive Myself Home,” South Arcade are impossible to ignore right now — and with their profile only rising, the loudest chapters of their story are still to come.
Don’t miss your chance to catch them on their biggest Australian shows yet.
Early bird pre-sale tickets launch this Thursday, June 11th at 9am local time, with general public tickets following the next day — Friday, June 12th at 9am local time — via Destroy All Lines.
