Multi-award-winning Naarm/Melbourne-via-Belgium indie artist Romanie is hitting the road in celebration of her acclaimed sophomore album It's Not That Funny, which landed #14 in the AUS album ARIA charts and was nominated for the Australian Music Prize. It's Not That Funny asks what it means to keep going when life feels overwhelming.

This tour is Romanie's answer: an invitation to make something together.

At the heart of each show is a creative experiment in collaboration. Prior to the show, Romanie and her support Human Noise will write a brand new song together in the space during the day. On the night they'll perform it for the very first time at the end of the support set: raw, unfinished, or perhaps something unexpectedly beautiful. It's a celebration of vulnerability, community and the joy of creating without perfection, so come early to watch the support act and afterwards witness the cowritten song in its very first form.

Joined by her band, Romanie will then perform songs from It's Not That Funny, her most emotionally direct and sonically ambitious record to date. Every show is built around connection: between artists, between songs and, most importantly, between the people in the room. Because while It's Not That Funny was born from navigating life's darkest moments, this tour is about discovering we don't have to navigate them alone.

Disassociating On The Travelator is the second collaborative EP from Melbourne/Naarm songwriters Winter McQuinn & Acacia Pip.

Blending indie folk, jangle pop and folk-emo with understated, emotionally rich songwriting, the four-track release reflects on memory, contemporary life and the quiet search for meaning in everyday moments. Recorded with Liam "Snowy" Halliwell at Bakehouse Studios, the EP will be released by Third Eye Stimuli Records on October 16 as a special double EP edition alongside Recently I've Been Missing The Colour Green, bringing both releases to vinyl and CD for the first time.

The release follows a busy year for both artists. Winter McQuinn recently toured his third solo album throughout Australia, North America and Europe, sharing stages with Stella Donnelly, Sylvie (US), Kacy & Clayton (CA) and Glyders (US), alongside appearances at Berlin Folk Festival and New Colossus Festival in New York. Meanwhile, Acacia Pip toured nationally with Pinch Points, supporting legendary punk band Descendents on their Australian tour.

Winter McQuinn & Acacia Pip will celebrate the release of Disassociating On The Travelator with a 13-date Australian and Aotearoa/New Zealand tour throughout October, November and December.
