After the announcement their headline appearance at Victoria’s favourite boutique festival, Boogie, and opening slots for Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit, the hell-raising rockers Deer Tick are coming back to Australia to play a headline show in Melbourne for the first time since 2013. On their last visit to Australia John McCauley told The Music Magazine - "I mean we always try to put on a good show, and when we don't we generally feel pretty bad about it. But I think seeing us live makes our records make a little bit more sense. There's not a lot of bands around now that do what we do, which is anything that we f*cking want”

Whether it’s tender lyrics layered over pissed off guitars or classical music flourishes delivered nearly naked and high, Deer Tick’s perfected it all. Mostly as an outlier they are revered by a legion of fans, respected by peers, but not part of any one scene. With their two new albums released simultaneously titled Deer Tick Vol. 1 and Deer Tick Vol. 2, the Rhode Island band prove that their punk-roots rock has only gotten better with age.
