“Next Exit” & “Midwest” continues a stream of highly anticipated new music from Australian indie outfit Vacations since their breakout 2022 year. The past year has seen the band’s music generate over 700m streams with over 1.1 billion streams to date. Their single “Young” reached platinum status & “Telephones” went gold in the US on top of impressive touring in 2022, which included their first-ever US tour with 32-dates sold-out and returning just 6 months later for a sold-out 11-date west coast run (upgrading from The Roxy in LA to the Fonda; 500 capacity to 1,200) with stops in Mexico City & a performance at the Austin City Limits Music Festival. The touring traction continues in 2023 with a sold- out May UK tour with an appearance at The Great Escape in Brighton (returning in August for All Points East), recently announcing a 30-date US tour with Last Dinosaurs for the fall (going back to CDMX), and heading to Singapore & Indonesia for the first time in August. The new music was produced by lead singer/guitarist Campbell Burns and John Velasquez (Zella Day, Broods) and shimmers with a bright upbeat urgency complimenting Burns’ crooning voice.
