THE BENNIES ANNOUNCE 'KNIGHTS FOREVER' AUSTRALIAN TOUR

Melbourne’s kings of stoner party jams, The Bennies have returned from Asia re-energised, re-invigorated and ready to embark on their second national tour in just six months. Reluctant to pause for breath, the four-piece will take brief respite over Christmas before charging into 2014 to hand-deliver their summer party vibes to regional and metro audiences alongside grunge brothers Apart From This. They’ll also be dropping in on two of Australia’s biggest summer festival dates, Push Over and Soundwave.

The Bennies recently returned from China and Japan where they paid visit to their exuberant and substantial fanbase, and obliterated cultural and language barriers by way of reggae-infused punk rock delivered with all the subtlety of a sideboob in a selfie.

Their second album Rainbows In Space received a totally raucous reception upon release in November. The Music was quick to deem the album “one of the best Aussie releases of 2013”, while SF Media urged its readers to board “an amazing trip through the barriers of genres”. triple j threw lead single HighRider on high rotation, Short.Fast.Loud listeners voted the album in at #6 in the End Of Year polls, and Blunt Magazine administered their tick of approval, suggesting “Anybody who says ‘Winners don’t do drugs’ hasn’t heard of The Bennies”.

The Bennies bandwagon is shrouded in smoke, streamers and LED lights and it’s slowly leaving the station. Jump on board now or forever be ‘that guy’.
