The Rubens will head out around Australia for a two-month tour starting in September.

The 22 dates will show the second album for The Rubens ‘Hoops’, due August 7.

The last time The Rubens toured Australia they sold out three Forum Theatres in Melbourne and two Enmore’s in Sydney. For this tour Sam Margin says, “We put more of a focus on how the songs would work in a live setting for this album. We wanted to write songs that would be fun for us to play live as well as fun for our audience to listen and move to.”

Melbourn’s Saskwatch and Central Coast folk rock duo Winterbourne will be joining the bill for most of the dates.
