Edit history

Hobart's Tiger Choir make noisy, oft-electronic pop music. While it is music made from the cultural periphery, the reality is that they have the internet and passports, and being a Tasmanian band shouldn't matter anymore. They've travelled the world enough to be wide-eyed to its possibilities, and their upcoming album is a record that captures the swagger, fear and confidence of realizing how infinite those options are. Since coming together in 2009, Tiger Choir have released both a self-titled EP as well as a debut LP, Unicycles (both out on GaGa digi). They have toured Australia and New Zealand and played with the likes of Deerhunter, The Drums, Holy Fuck! and Regurgitator, as well as gracing stages of the Falls Festival, Camp a Low Hum (NZ), and Tasmania's best new boutique festival, Panama Festival. Whilst the EP and Unicycles drew upon a sample-based sound with prickly guitars and shouty choruses, the intervening years have lead to a leaner and darker follow up album. Two
