The Life After Football Australian Tour will see The Smith Street Band joined by old tour mates, Press Club who are fresh off a huge European tour, the two bands did a massive 35 date Australian tour together in 2018. Press Club recently released their third album Endless Motion.

“It’s been a long time coming, trying to record around lockdowns and shut downs and everything else was tough but we’re so happy with what we’ve made and are very excited to show you! This album is more defiant than depressed, more upbeat than down trodden and is inspired by a search for meaning and what’s next. We’ve all lived through a once in a lifetime event, some of us have lived through multiple once in a lifetime events, and it can be hard to come to terms with what we’ve been through and what comes next. But hopefully this summer feels like summers past and this album helps with that feeling a little.” - Wil Wagner

“It’s The Smith Street Band at their finest, with life After Football highlighting a renewal of the group’s pub rock roots” - Forte Mag
