HUNGRY KIDS OF HUNGARY

Serving their touring apprenticeship throughout 2009, Hungry Kids of Hungary have emerged with hardened stomachs, the ability to sleep standing and a dynamically honed live show capable of drawing new audiences purely by word of mouth.

A short 12-months since triple j Unearthed invited the newbies to play a spot at the Gold Coast Big Day Out, the Hungry Kids of Hungary have since toured alongside the Philly Jays and Washington and provided national support for Bertie Blackman and Little Birdy before heading out on their very own national headline tour. The monumentally busy year was capped off with solid festival appearances at Woodford, Falls, Sunset Sounds and Southbound.

With an overseas assault to the UK and USA scheduled for April, the lads are currently bunkered down in producer Matt Redlich’s poolside Brisbane studio as work begins on their debut album. And just as studio cabin fever is predicted to set in, Hungry Kids of Hungary will let loose on the road again with a string of dates around the country in late February.

Along for the ride are the musical explorations of Ernest Ellis and the ethereal melodies of Boy and Bear, with a local support for each date still to be announced.
