Following on from legendary performances at Falls Festival this summer and two places in the triple j hottest 100 (‘Maybe You Know’ #61 and ‘Teach Me About Dying’ #50), Holy Holy have just announced a regional tour of Australia this April, including a stop at the iconic Torquay Hotel.
It’s been a landmark six months for the band since the August release of their third critically acclaimed album My Own Pool of Light via Wonderlick Recordings. The album landed the coveted triple j feature album, was voted #5 in the best albums of 2019 by triple j listeners and received nominations for triple j album of the year and ‘Best Rock Album’ at the 2019 ARIA Awards.
Featuring current single Sandra and lead singles ‘Maybe You Know’, ‘Teach Me About Dying’ and ‘Faces’, My Own Pool of Light is an undiluted representation of Holy Holy’s vision, from the songwriting to the recording process and, ultimately, their decision to self-produce. It’s an album that finds guitarist Oscar Dawson and vocalist Timothy Carroll incorporating new sounds and fresh ideas. In the process they redefine exactly what kind of band they are without sacrificing the key elements that have made them one of Australia’s most popular acts.
Catch them at the Torquay Hotel on Friday April 3. Tickets can be purchased here.
