Angus & Julia Stone prepare debut LP + tour
By: Thomas Hannan
Angus Stone and Julia Stone, or as they are less clumsily and more commercially known Angus and Julia Stone, are an Australasian brother and sister duo who've making quietly brilliant alternative folk music for a while now (as THIS REVIEW of their last record, Heart Full of Wine / Chocolate and Cigarettes attests). Thankfully for us, they've gone and made even more of it.
A Book Like This, actually their debut album proper after a string of, well, shorter releases, hits the shelves via Flock Music on March 31st. Produced by Travis frontman Fran Healey and already a big hit in their native Australia, the release acts as the culmination of some determined UK touring around the following venues.
27/01 - Miss Peapods, Falmouth
29/01 - Glee Club, Birmingham
30/01 - Soho Revue Bar, London
01/02 - Ruby Lounge, Manchester
02/02 - Beat Club, Glasgow
08/05 - The Scala, London
