Kiwi stars Midnight Youth gear up for Aussie tour, album release

New Zealand rockers Midnight Youth may not yet be household names in Australia, but it's only a matter of time. The band have taken their homeland by storm, with their debut single, "The Letter", rocketing up the charts and becoming one of the most played songs at radio in recent memory. Midnight Youth's debut album, The Brave Don't Run, has already been certified Gold in New Zealand, and is on its way to Platinum status.

With New Zealand well-and-truly conquered, it's time for Midnight Youth to head to Australia. The band will embark on an extensive national tour this August with fellow rockers Dukes Of Windsor and Trial Kennedy – and The Brave Don't Run will receive an Australian release in October.
