Hands Like Houses Album Launch Shows - 18+ & AA

Hands Like Houses are a fresh and explosive 6 piece from Canberra, Australia. With a rapidly expanding international fanbase, the band has captivated audiences with their electric blend of technical, effects- heavy songwriting with post-hardcore passion and stage presence. Driven by rich lyricism and melodic, emotive vocals in the vein of Emarosa and The Getaway Plan, the band presents a complex and finely crafted mix of guitar and electronics, drawing from a broad range of influence including Thrice, The Receiving End of Sirens and Closure in Moscow.

HLH traveled to the USA in 2010 and 2011 to record ‘Ground Dweller’ with Cameron Mizell of Chango Studios (Woe, Is Me, Sleeping With Sirens, Oceana). The subsequent single releases, ‘This Ain’t No Place For Animals’, and Lion Skin (feat. Tyler Carter and Jonny Craig)’ earned the band over 5,000 independent single sales via iTunes during 2011, and their most recent single ‘Antarctica’, released on Youtube through Rise Records, has amassed almost 200,000 views in its first month. Along with the band’s self-produced acoustic versions of ‘Lion Skin’ and The Sowerʼ, their YouTube channels have seen over three quarters of a million views, growing daily.

Boasting a dedicated and fast-growing international fanbase, built through years of personally managing their social networks and independent promotion and touring, Hands Like Houses released their hotly anticipated debut album ‘Ground Dweller’ on March 9th in Australia (March 13th worldwide through Rise Records)

To celebrate, the band will be hosting album launches in Melbourne, Sydney and Canberra during the month of March.
