KING GIZZARD & THE LIZARD WIZARD ANNOUNCE HUGE AUSTRALIAN TOUR

Set to make way through the country during June and July, the psychedelic slingers will of course be making a pit stop at Splendour In The Grass, but will be pleasing their faithful fans with these sweet sideshows.

 

The Nonagon Infinity Album Tour announcement has been revealed alongside a brand new music video for their single, ‘People-Vultures’. Directed by Danny Cohen, the clip is exactly what you’d expect from the off-beat band members. Inspiringly quirky and as surreal as it gets, it features the guys in a big-bird styled vulture costume.

 

Taking thirty people around three weeks to put together the production, the clip is just a killer creative collaboration. Danny Cohen & Jason Galea shared their thoughts:“We conceptualised a giant 6 meter (20+ feet) tall musical vulture. The vulture housed all seven band members along with their instruments and trundled across different landscapes fighting various characters plucked from the tracks on Nonagon Infinity. With the vulture fully assembled and all the band members inside, it weighed over a tonne and was difficult to move safely across the rough terrain without breaking or toppling over. Stu had the daunting job of being inside the vulture’s neck and head with only a small railing to battle the vertigo and bumps as the vulture slowly moved.”
