New York acts Prince Daddy & the Hyena and Macseal are teaming up for a double-headline tour this July. Both acts are visiting Australia for the first time and playing some of the country’s coolest intimate venues.
I have to shout out the promoter Destroy All Lines who have put together some fantastic double- and triple-bills for up-and-coming and niche acts of late. They’ve made sure fans can see these bands who probably couldn’t tour Australia under their own strength. They just don’t have the following to make it feasible. But pair them up and it’s all systems go! I must admit, I wasn’t across either band before the press release hit my desk, but I’ve been listening to them both all day. Prince Daddy & the Hyena’s punk-rock sound has my heart, but Macseal also make fantastic indie-rock music. Take a listen, because of this tour goes well they’re going to graduate to larger venues next time around.
Prince Daddy & the Hyena will be here promoting their highly anticipated fourth album Hotwire Trip Switch, which drops on April 17. Macseal only just released their EP Macseal on Audiotree Live last December, which gives you a taste of how good they are on stage. Find out for yourself when Prince Daddy & the Hyena and Macseal hit local venues later this year.
