'Washington teased the audience with her soft and melodious tunes and husky voice. Washington?s almost bashful demeanor adds to the deliverance of her poetically original melodies' Fasterlouder JAN 2010

It?s hard to believe that Washington were unearthed by Triple J only 12 months ago! That accolade led to their first performance as a band being the Big Day Out. Since then Washington have earned their chops by playing just about every town in Australia with the likes of Tim Finn, Camille, Grizzly Bear and Paul Kelly. The year ended with their leading lady Megan Washington winning the inaugural Vanda & Young Songwriting competition from a field of more than 3,000 entries.

Having just finished an amazing run of summer festival shows in Australia including Falls, Southbound & Sunset Sounds, it is with great pleasure that Washington announce their first ever headline tour in support of the much-loved How To Tame Lions EP. These 5 intimate shows will provide the last opportunity to catch Washington before the band travel to the US to play the prestigious SXSW Festival.

Joining the band on tour are Melbourne?s Rat Vs Possum whose show has been described as a 'tribal-psych glitter circus'. So dancing shoes are compulsory.

Dinner & Show tickets will be seated upstairs, downstairs will be standing general admission only
