have spent their almost-decade together working towards” Rolling Stone

Riding high from the release of their recent album Barnyard, today Good Morning announce their worldwide tour across Australia and the United States in 2022. Tickets are on sale this Friday 3rd December, 9 AM AEST. SEE ALL TOUR DATES BELOW.
In their near decade long tenure, in the wake of Barnyard’s release Good Morning have been internationally celebrated, with widespread acclaim from Rolling Stone, NME, Stereogum, The Line Of Best Fit, Consequence, Alt Press, Paste, DIY Mag, Music Feeds, The Music, Northern Transmissions, KCRW, 6Music and many more, including a warm embrace across local community radio stations Triple R, PBS, FBi Radio, 2SER, Edge Radio and SYN. The album’s release also tracked New Music playlist support upon release across DSPs, alongside tastemaker editorial.
Thoughtful, catchy, idiosyncratic, and nearly twice the average length of their back catalogue, Barnyard is all the things one might love about Good Morning, this time around presented with the fat trimmed and the edges sharpened. Recorded at Wilco’s famed studio The Loft, for the first time in a long time the record was made with the help of an outside engineer and featured as an international release on a record label not operated by a friend, but instead, Polyvinyl, joining the likes of Alvvays, Julia Jacklin, STRFKR, Kero Kero Bonito and joining the ranks at Sub Pop Publishing.
Those seeking grand reinvention or earth-shaking hubris in Barnyard will come up short. This is an album of good, well-made, finely-written songs, notable for its purity and coherence of vision, but not by any means a concept album; it is a record significant in Good Morning’s history, but not one with such self-importance that it would consider itself historically significant for all. That is likely what those drawn to it will love about it. Including the singles ‘Country’, ‘Burning’ and ‘Depends On What I Know’, Barnyard is not too little and not too much. It’s just right – just Good Morning. The local leg of their world tour across so-called Australia follows their recently announced appearance at the upcoming Sydney Festival and regional Victoria tour earlier this year. Plus the band will play their biggest headline show to date at the Balsco Theatre. Supports and more dates will be announced soon!

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
