Irish rock trio The Coronas announce Australian tour

Irish rock band The Coronas are returning to Perth this year, bringing their national tour to Magnet House on Saturday, November 23.

The Dublin trio hit our shores on the back of their latest single, That’s Exactly What Love Is, featuring their friend and collaborator, Gabrielle Aplin. Arriving with a new music video filmed at Glastonbury, That’s Exactly What Love Is is the second single from The Coronas’ eighth studio album, Thoughts & Observations, which is out on Friday, September 27.

“We’re so excited to be sharing new music,” said the band. “To be honest we didn’t really take a break after the last one, as soon as the touring and promotion of Time Stopped slowed down, we were already working on Thoughts & Observations.”

“Thematically, the album deals with love, loss and growing older,” they added. “It’s possibly us fully embracing our man-band status. After seven albums we’re probably a little more cynical now than we were when we started! In saying that there’s still an optimistic feel to this album that The Coronas albums tend to have.”

A multi-platinum group who can claim supporting Bruce Springsteen in Hyde Park, playing for President Biden, and a burgeoning global fanbase, The Coronas’ last three albums also went straight to #1 on the Irish Charts. Recent sold-out tours across North America and Australia are further testament to the trio’s enduring popularity.
