Dan Sultan and Oh Mercy's Alexander Gow join forces for national tour

This July sees singer/songwriters Dan Sultan and Alexander Gow join forces for a unique tour across Australia.

Dan Sultan and Alexander Gow literally bumped into each other on a busy Sydney street. The two Melbourne musicians chatted about football and music, and concluded that one day they should tour together. And so, they are.

Dan Sultan is a man who needs little introduction. Fronting his own rock and roll band, his second album 'Get Out While You Can' saw him take home two ARIA Awards in 2010, and prove himself as a gem of Australian music. This tour will see Dan perform from behind a piano and without his band, a very special set.

Alexander Gow is better known as the songwriter and frontman of Oh Mercy. Having recently circled Australia on a sold-out headline tour in support of the band's acclaimed album 'Great Barrier Grief', Alexander is stepping straight back onto the stage alone, guitar in hand.

The one-time-only tour will see Alexander and Dan perform tracks from their stunning songwriting catalogues, solo and striped right back to their true essence. The July tour will hit only small theaters and band rooms across the country. Tickets are on sale from Friday 29 April.
