Dictaphone Blues Announces Nationwide Tour

Dictaphone Blues, the musical project helmed by Eddie Castelow, is hitting the proverbial road to celebrate the release of new album Mufti Day. The tour will see Castelow and his band meander around the country during early December to taking their swell indie-pop tunes around five main centres. The first show at Chicks Hotel in Dunedin coincides with the unveiling of Mufti Day, which is coming out via Banished From The Universe records. And as a bonus, the tour will be augmented by the specially brewed Mufti Ale, a craft beer that comes courtesy of Hallertau breweries. Here's the details...

PRESS RELEASE:

DICTAPHONE BLUES – ‘Mufti Day’ Album Release Tour: Dates Announced, Vinyl + Ticket Combo, Dictaphone Blues Beer from Hallertau.

Several months have passed with many hours spent beavering away in the studio for Edward Castelow, as he has slowly but surely created a new Dictaphone Blues album, entitled Mufti Day. And in December Dictaphone Blues will be on the road traversing both islands.

Released on December 5th via Banished From The Universe records, Mufti Day arrives shining, boundless, bellowing from a mountaintop on limited edition ruby red vinyl, CD and digital formats. Tickets for the tour are now available at Under The Radar with the option of a discounted ticket/vinyl combo. Your limited edition vinyl will be available for collection at the gig.

Dictaphone Blues heads out upon the joyous trail of New Zealand on tour throughout December, with musical wares to be peddled and performed perfect for the start of the long hot summer.

Sponsored by Hallertau breweries, the Mufti Day Album Release Tour will have it’s own craft beer MUFTI ALE available at shows.

The album – without question the band’s finest, experimental and most complete offering to date - features the #1 alternative airplay radio single, Her Heart Breaks Like A Wave, and current alt radio hit 365 (feat. Emily Edrosa)
