Fresh from shows in the UK & Ireland with the iconic Paul Kelly & Australian songwriting sweetheart Tim Rogers, Holly Throsby returns to Australia where she will undertake her own extensive tour.

Launching her new album A Loud Call, the tour will commence in Alice Springs and finishes up in Cairns, taking in 22 cities and towns along the way.




Joining Holly at all shows is her long time band, comprising Bree van Reyk and Jens Birchall. The band touches down for their Adelaide album launch on Saturday September 6 at Jive.

A Loud Call
was recorded in Nashville with engineer and producer Mark Nevers [Lambchop, Will Oldham]. It includes guest performances by Bonnie Prince Billy, and members of Lambchop and Silverjews. The album has been proclaimed 'one of the Australian albums of the year so far' by Melbourne Magazine, and is being hailed as Holly's best work to date.

THE AUSTRALIAN

"Gorgeous, beautiful, incredibly intimate songs. One of the Australian albums of the year so far."
MELBOURNE MAGAZINE

"Brighter, livelier, more stunningly vivid. Holly Throsby has blossomed."
THE VINE


"Throsby has produced some fine work in the past but this is her best by a long shot."
