SAFIA drop a date for their upcoming sophomore album and national tour

As the winter chill is just starting to hit us hard, Australian electronica, indie pop outfit Safia, know exactly how to escalate the vibes and turn up the heat.

After teasing us all with the title of their highly anticipated upcoming album two weeks ago, the Canberra trio has today announced that Story’s Start or End will be released on 9 August.

Written and produced by the band over the past 2.5 years in their hometown Canberra, the album will include current single ‘Resolution’, as well as previously released singles ‘Starlight’ and ‘Cellophane Rainbow’. Story’s Start or End will showcase the Australian three-piece’s bold vision and fine attention to detail, with intricate production and adventurous arrangements underpinning thoughtful musings on identity, growth, and understanding. As a band they are known for forging entire sonic landscapes with rich, cinematic detail and Story’s Start or End will continue that not only sonically but also visually through their live shows.

Renowned for their electrifying live shows, the album will be followed by an extensive tour around Australia and New Zealand, with friends Boo Seeka joining in for the action as the main support and Eilish Gilligan as the opening support.

To celebrate the launch of the album pre-order and national tour dates, the band have shared another song from the album titled ‘Think We’re Not Alone’, which avid fans might recognise from the ‘Starlight’ tour in late 2018. The throbbing track wrestles with letting go of unwelcome thoughts.

Check it out.

Theyll hit up Forum Theatre, Melbourne on Sat September 7. Tickets here.
