Richard In Your Mind are back already with a new record and new live show which they are touring this September.

Following up on their 2010 album My Volcano is certainly a hard ask, My Volcano gained Richard In Your Mind an AMP nomination and more importantly loving appreciation from more people than ever before.

Yet nothing is beyond Richard In Your Mind and SUN, their 2011 release, may indeed be the band’s most cohesive and beautiful album yet.

As a band who naturally and continuously write and record, while on tour last year, Richard In Your Mind began writing SUN and because it’s what they do best, Richard In Your Mind have produced this stunning album in under one year.

In celebration of this new record Richard In Your Mind are hitting the road to tour the record live and are extremely excited to be accompanied by two of Australia’s finest groups around today – The Laurels and Fishing.

The Laurels released their debut EP ‘Mesozoic’ in July to some serious acclaim – The Age awarded it four stars and declared The Laurels to be “one of the most compelling bands around right now.”

Sydney-based production duo Fishing have already scored supports with Cloud Control and Jonothan Boulet just to name a few and now Fishing are taking their dexterous beat-tweaking live show to impress audiences further on this exciting tour!
