Fremantle's indie-popsters San Cisco are jumping aboard their rocket ship this April and May for a string of side shows to coincide with their Groovin' The Moo performances. The San Cisco Rocket Ship will be landing in Adelaide, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth delighting fans with their lively jangly pop tunes.
After whetting the appetite of Australians on their SOLD OUT national tour with The Jungle Giants, San Cisco will be taking to the road again. This time revealing a few new tunes as well as 'Awkward' the song that landed them at #7 in triple j's Hottest 100 countdown. The band haven't stopped since releasing their sophomore EP, Awkward, which rocketed to GOLD status.
The young guns have been considerate enough to open the doors to anyone who is 8 to 88 in Adelaide for a special ALL AGES show at Fowlers Live on Thursday, May 3.
The band's hometown were lucky enough to get a taste of what to expect on the 'Rocket Ship' tour when San Cisco made a special in-store appearance at Fat Shan Records in celebration of release of their EP. The record store was packed to the rafters spilling out onto the streets with fans waiting to see the band perform.
But it isn't just fans that have been swooning, reviews for the sophomore EP and shows have illustrated that they are the band to watch.
"Davieson is a particularly good vocalist his youthful voice carrying just enough swagger to be highly convincing."

"It brims with more sweetness and energy than a cold glass of Milo."
