The Yackandandah duo accompany the single release of 'Hell of a Mess' with national tour dates, playing nine shows across the country
Two-piece indie pop-rock band This Way North find themselves in one hell of a mess navigating the disarray of life and the even more shambolic scenario of love. They unpack it in their latest single ‘Hell of a Mess‘ from their forthcoming debut record Punching Underwater.
Keep up with the latest music news, features, festivals, interviews and reviews here.
Built for dance floors, golden hour drives and longingly lounging on the bedroom floor, ‘Hell of a Mess’ hits listeners right in the feels but gives you the chance to dance your way through it. Nodding to Haim, LCD Soundsystem and The Beaches, ‘Hell of a Mess’ builds grooves through crunchy 80’s guitar lines from Cat and mesmerising bass heartbeats from Leisha.
The single announcement is paired with the announcement of a tour across the East Coast of Australia.
