The two members of the Californian hip-hop collective Odd Future most likely to be refused permission to enter a country, Earl Sweatshirt and Tyler, The Creator have announced they’re touring Australia as co-headliners on the ‘Earlwolf Tour’.
It will be the first trip to Oz for the teenage Mr Sweatshirt – arguably the most proficient rhymer and cleverest lyricist of the whole OFWGKTA crew – who missed Odd Future’s Big Day Out 2012 tour, but with his debut album Doris slated for a release sometime in the not-too-distant-future (via his Tan Cressida imprint under the Columbia Records/Sony umbrella) Earl’s presence is due. Pencil in the dates.
Earlwolf featuring Earl Sweatshirt and Tyler, The Creator Tour:
Tue 4 Jun – Capitol, Perth
Thu 6 Jun – Enmore Theatre, Sydney
Fri 7 Jun – Palace Theatre, Melbourne
Sat 8 Jun – Eatons Hill Hotel, Brisbane
Tickets on sale from 9am local time, Tues 7 May.
UPDATE: Earl Sweatshirt just debuted a new track at Syracuse music festival, Mayfest, with a hook allegedly produced by RZA. Check out the footage.
