Following the release of their first new music in 10 years last November, ARIA Award-winning act The Audreys unveil a brand new country-soaked ballad, Beatles V Stones, alongside the announcement of their fifth studio album, Ruin & Repair, due out on Friday March 14. The troubadours are also taking Ruin & Repair on the road around Australia, with an extensive list of dates also announced today.
Formed back in 2004 by Taasha Coates and guitarist Tristan Goodall, The Audreys have gone on to release four full-length albums, with 2006’s Between Last Night and Us, 2008’s When the Flood Comes and 2011’s Sometimes the Stars all taking home the ARIA Award for Best Blues & Roots Album, as well as their most recent album, 2014’s ‘Til My Tears Roll Away scoring an ARIA nomination itself. Renowned for their dynamic and silken sonic wiles, The Audreys became a beloved fixture on the Australian touring scene, with countless gigs in their wake, and have also ticked off club and festival shows in North America, the UK, and Europe. Hitting pause briefly in 2016, with Coates releasing her first solo album, Taasha Coates and Her Melancholy Sweethearts, The Audreys continued to share their musical magic and tour up until the COVID years hit; and, devastatingly, The Audreys journey changed irrevocably in 2022 with the untimely passing of Goodall. But for Coates, the chance to continue The Audreys creative pursuits is also a chance to pay ongoing homage to Goodall, with The Audreys also celebrating 20 years in 2024 since Coates and Goodall first started the project, and The Audreys now courageously venturing into a brand new chapter; and it’s one that will joyfully include some extensive Australian touring kicking off not long after brand new album; Ruin & Repair releases into the world.
“I’ve overcome a lot of hurdles to get to this point and I’m really gosh darn happy to be here!” Taasha Coates reveals. “We have a whole national tour coming up starting at the end of March and running right through until June. It will be lots of songs from the new album and lots of old Audreys favourites. Can’t wait!”
