Following the recent reissues of Frontierland, Honey Steels Gold, Electrical Storm, and the unreleased Mr. MiraKle, ‘Black Ticket Day’ makes its triumphant return after 30 years, available on black or opaque purple vinyl. The album, a winner of the ARIA Award for Best Independent Release in 1992, boasts timeless tracks like the title song and ‘Real Wild Love,’ making it a long-awaited treat for fans. This reissue also marks its debut on streaming services.

Meanwhile, ‘Law Of Nature,’ the 1984 post-punk masterpiece from Laughing Clowns, emerges from obscurity for the first time in over 40 years, available on black or royal blue vinyl. With the legendary ‘Eternally Yours,’ the album has achieved mythical status over the years and is set to captivate a new audience with its streaming debut.

For the April tour, Ed Kuepper’s band features the stellar lineup of drummer Mark Dawson, bassist Peter Oxley, pianist Alister Spence, and brass arranger Eamon Dilworth.
