THE DEAD SOUTH will bring their unique bluegrass sound to Australia and New Zealand for the first time with their One For The Road Tour in January 2023. The band will perform headline shows in Sydney, Newcastle, Brisbane and Melbourne before headlining across the ditch to Auckland.

Propelled by the momentum of a gold-certified single for ‘In Hell I’ll Be In Good Company’, two Canadian JUNO Award wins for Traditional Roots Album of the Year and sold out tours worldwide with performances at iconic live destinations including Glastonbury, Brixton Academy, and Red Rocks Amphitheater, the finger-picking four-piece offer a highly nonconformist, hugely entertaining take on the traditional string band sound. 

The Dead South’s most recent releases are Easy Listening For Jerks, Parts 1 + 2, two companion EPs which explore traditional folk and modern rock anthems alike in The Dead South’s signature boundary-pushing acoustic approach. New videos from the EPs, ‘You Are My Sunshine’ and ‘People Are Strange’ have garnered nearly 10 million views.

"Traditional music with a contemporary twist, contemporary music with a traditional twist; only expect to have your expectations broken." - AmericanaUK

“Their live shows are notorious for the dynamism and energy they display on stage.” - Bluegrass Today
