Loren and the Grow Your Owns will join the grey nomads of Australia this March and April and set out the road on a seven week national tour to launch the new album ’80 k’s an hour’.

The band went into hibernation and hit the studio after returning from a heavy touring schedule throughout November and December last year which included the triple j supported ‘Roots Roadshow Tour’ and festivals including Pyramid Rock Festival.

The album features Loren, Beck Flatt and Luke Foran with guest appearances from special guests. It delivers five new recordings including the crowd favorite ‘Old and Retired’, and five live tracks recorded at the Corner Hotel in Melbourne last December.

The tour kicks off at Port Fairy Folk Festival and travels through Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia, Western Australia, New South Wales and Queensland. Luke Foran will be opening for the tour with some shows featuring his band Galleons Lap.

There are new songs from the album up on myspace.com/lorenandthegrowyourowns
