The Blackeyed Susans are returning to the road in February 2010 in celebration of their 20th anniversary retrospective box set ‘Reveal Yourself 1989-2009’.
The band will be playing encore performances in Melbourne and Sydney, and taking the show to Brisbane, the Blue Mountains and Newcastle for the first time.
The recently released 4-disc box set ‘Reveal Yourself 1989-2009’ has been highly praised:
***** 5 stars – Sunday Herald Sun, Melbourne
“This box set is essential. I urge anyone who has never heard The Blackeyed Susans before to go out and pick this up.” – The Drum Media, Perth
“A fantastic introduction to one of Australia’s most darkly lovely and lovable bands. **** 4 stars” – Sunday Mail, Adelaide
“Snarski sings with the dulcet tones of a choir boy that barely covers potential menace simmering below the velvet-crooner surface. Album of the week.” – The Advocate, Hobart
“This is music of flickering candles, fine whiskey, stained candelabra, op shop jackets and whispered dreams. They personify a sense of style, grace, and romance that’s simply lost to most bands.” - MAG
These are The Blackeyed Susans’ final dates prior to venturing overseas for selected shows in Europe.
