Who Is Blonde On Blonde?
Formed in the desolate playground known as the Fortitude Valley, Blonde on Blonde is intrinsically about psychedelic indie infused rock and roll.

The band played their first live show on February 5th 2010 to a sold out crowd at the now defunct Troubadour in Brisbane, launching their debut EP Tease. The EP received critical acclaim in street press and blogs around the country, and was named Single of the Week in Brisbane’s Time off Magazine.

In the following months Blonde on Blonde were handpicked by Tame Impala to open for them on their Brisbane leg of their Inner speaker tour, and their third show was supporting Australian rock legends Wolfmother. With Tease receiving airplay on Dom Alessio’s Home and Hosed program on Triple J, FBI ( Sydney) and RRR (Melbourne), the song Oh My Oh My went to number 1 on the 4ZZZ radio top 20 charts and stayed there for 2 weeks in a row. Blonde on Blonde also graced the cover of Brisbane news labelled as one of the city’s next big things.

The band followed up the success of Tease with the release of the double A side single Friends in Danger/ Are You Entertained. The release led to their first interstate shows in Melbourne and Sydney, as well as a tour with Dead Letter Circus and a local spot on the line up for the 2011 Big Day Out (alongside Tool and Iggy and the Stooges).

In 2012 the band signed with agent Damien Costin of Premier Artists, and headed out on their first headline east coast tour in support of their newly released single Act 1. The band started receiving heavy airplay on radio in the US, leading to them being invited to the annual MUSEXPO conference in Los Angeles, Also performing at legendary rock venue The Viper Room.

Upon their return to Australia, the band toured with rock legends INXS on their final headlining tour, as well as scoring support slots for Urge Overkill, Presidents of the United States of America, Violent Soho, Redcoats, Ballpark music, Sugar Army, British India, DZ Deathrays and Papa Vs Pretty.

In 2013 Blonde on Blonde joined the roster of Damien Costin’s newly formed 123 Agency alongside acts such as Stonefield, Kingswood, Ariela Jacobs, Cabins, Cairo Knife Fight, Calling All Cars, Dune, Ella Hooper, Katalyst and Owl Eyes.

In the latter half of 2013 the band released their next single Lucid which received great reviews by multiple Triple J presenters, leading to a high rotation position on Triple J Unearthed radio, as well as airplay on Triple J. Blonde on Blonde toured with Stonefield and She Rex on the east coast, and in support of Grinspoon at their final show before their indefinite hiatus.

The band kicked off the 2014 by supporting Kingswood and Calling all Cars on selected dates of their Life’s a Beach tour, as well as supporting Birds of Tokyo at OZ Fest on Australia day in Brisbane.
