In April 2011, Hey Rosetta! won the hearts of Australian audiences when they toured nationally with fellow countryman and labelmate Dallas Green of City & Colour. The sold out tour proved the perfect launching pad for the six-piece, and the City & Colour crowd the perfect hosts to Hey Rosetta’s “fantastic and spirited” multi-instrumental, layered melodies.

Finally, this October, Hey Rosetta! return to perform alongside one of Australia’s hottest exports, The Jezabels.

Hey Rosetta! hails from the rocky and cold northeastern province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. In 2005, Tim Baker arrived home from a road trip with a suitcase full of poems and melodies. Hey Rosetta! formed soon after with the addition of a string section (cellist Romesh Thavanathan and violinist Kinley Dowling) and rhythm section (bassist Josh Ward, drummer Phil Maloney and guitarist Adam Hogan). Since then, they’ve blossomed into a powerful group whose explosive live shows have earned them a devoted following.

The band’s new album, Seeds, was produced by Tony Doogan (Belle and Sebastian, Mogwai , Wintersleep) and reveals a maturing lyrical depth and an adventurous musical atmosphere rooted to the band’s passion for epic musical experiences. It was recently short-listed for the prestigious Polaris Music Prize.
