The Avalanches are set to release the new video for their track Because I’m Me, from their magical Wildflower album. Filmed on location in New York, it was directed by Greg Brunkalla and features Cheeba from Camp Lo in the video, with Camp Lo contributing vocals to the track.
Fans will also be delighted with the re-release of Since I Left You on vinyl on January 27, 2017, the standard version with original tracklisting available for the first time in a number of years. In April 2017, the vinyl steps up a notch, with the release of a Deluxe version including bonus tracks.
The Avalanches are also giving fans the opportunity to choose the colour of the standard vinyl edition. They simply head to the website and nominate their chosen colour and the band will make a decision from this input.
In addition to this, fans will have the option to pledge their support for the vinyl to their local retailers – see here for more.
In what’s been a spectacular return for the band, they have also notched up 6 ARIA Award nominations – Telstra Album Of The Year, Best Dance Release, Best Group, Engineer Of The Year, Producer Of The Year and Best Cover Art.
At the end of the year and into 2017, the band will embark on a select group of Falls Festival and headline sideshows. With Sydney and their first Melbourne shows SOLD OUT, only a handful of tickets now remain for their second and final Melbourne show and Adelaide.
