Melbourne seven-piece Vanilla Gorilla are emerging from their "celestial hiatus" with a brand new album and a special hometown show at Brunswick Ballroom.

The band will be touring in support of their third album Home. Fans can expect a massive 90-minute set featuring both the new album and favourite tracks from their back catalogue.

Known for their genre-blending sound, Vanilla Gorilla infuses the emotive core of blues and reggae with psychedelic rock and hints of hip-hop to create their distinctive musical identity.

Their mid-January single served as a teaser for what the band describes as “a lush creative landscape awaiting exploration,” giving fans a taste of their evolved sound after their break from performing.

The band’s return marks a significant new chapter in their musical journey, with Home representing what they’re calling a rebirth and an invitation to join them as they venture into “uncharted sonic territories.”
