Secret Sounds presents GROUPLOVE Tuesday 13 February PRESALE STARTS 9AM WED 18 OCT GENERAL ON SALE STARTS 9AM THU 19 OCT Sign up to the mailing list at thecroxton.com.au Currently touring across America, Grouplove will be bringing their energetic live show and infectious tunes to Australia for the first time in more than 18 months. Be sure to get your dancing shoes on, because they’ll be sure to have their new single ‘Remember That Night’ in tow, along with a setlist chock full of fan favourites from all three of their albums. Fronted by the husband-and-wife team of Hannah Hooper (vocals, keyboards) and Christian Zucconi (vocals, guitar), Grouplove also includes Andrew Wessen (guitar, vocals), Ryan Rabin (drums), and Daniel Gleason (bass). The five-piece are renowned for their relentlessly positive live performances, bringing an energy and pure joy to the stage that is rarely seen in modern music. Formed in 2009 after the band members met at an arts colony on the Greek Island of Crete, Grouplove have been a household name ever since the release of their debut album Never Trust a Happy Song. Party anthems such as ‘Tongue Tied’and ‘Itching on a Photograph’ quickly cemented the band as a staple of festivals, sold-out shows and indie radio around the world. The group’s follow-up album Spreading Rumours produced the hits ‘Ways to Go’and ‘Shark Attack’, while their most recent full-length effort –2016’s critically acclaimed Big Mess gave the world catchy sing-alongs ‘Welcome to Your Life’and ‘Good Morning’. Big Mess was produced by the band’s own Ryan Rabin and Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, Band Of Horses, The Shins) and reached the top 20 of the Australian charts after its September 2016 release. Grouplove have been far from quiet since then, with the release of the Little Mess EP and new single ‘Remember the Night’ this year. You might also recognise their distinctive style as the creators of the closing credits theme song on the Netflix Original Series ‘Bojack Horseman’. "We've been writing a lot of new music recently – Hannah in particular is starting to come into her own in a new and very honest way. She is really starting to show her fire. Hope you can feel it,” said Grouplove’s Christian Zucconi about the new single.
