Lachlan Bryan & The Wildes announce June/July 2018 UK dates


Lachlan Bryan & The Wildes will be bringing their Australian take on the alt-country / Americana genre to the UK in June/July 2018 for a run of dates including two shows at Maverick Festival. The tour is in support of the European release of their latest album 'Some Girls (Quite) Like Country Music' on June 29th. More info about Lachlan Bryan & The Wildes and their new album follows:

Lachlan Bryan and The Wildes have built their reputation on storytelling. Over the past eight years they have released four records, toured Europe and the USA multiple times, shared stages with Americana and country heavyweights and picked up a string of awards, including the Golden Guitar for ‘alt country album of the year’ with their landmark release 'Black Coffee'.

Since emerging in 2009, Lachlan Bryan and The Wildes have become known as the finest Australian exponents of Americana Music, winning the prestigious Golden Guitar Award for Alt-Country Album of the Year in 2014 and being finalists again in the category in 2016 (Lachlan returned to the awards to present the very same award to Kasey Chambers in 2018).

At home they have played the main stage at every major country and roots festival, as well as supporting international acts such as Steve Earle, Joan Armatrading, Shawn Colvin and John Hiatt in theatres across the country. Lachlan and band have also toured the USA several times and made their first visit to Europe in 2017, where they performed shows in Switzerland, Germany and The UK (where the band was a highlight of the iconic Maverick Festival).

Whether appearing as a stripped-back roots three piece or in their full five piece formation, Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes are always an engaging live act. The stories are universal and their authenticity is palpable.
