The Jungle Giants Announce New Album And Nz Tour

Hot on the heels of last week’s launch of the galvanising, sharp heel turn of new single 'Tell Me How It Feels' The Jungle Giants are now announcing a one-two punch – the title of their new album, to be released later this year, and New Zealand tour dates this July.

The new album, EXPERIENCING FEELINGS OF JOY, is an apt title not only for the listener, but its creator. Careening from crushing personal loss to hopeful exuberance, it’s an album Sam Hales could only write after thinking he’d never be able to write one again.

“I'd overextended and kind of cooked it, but I really found myself,” he says. “That’s where the joy comes from, having this unwavering hope even after experiencing adversity. This record is what everything culminated in for me, because I'm so in love with it and I'm so addicted to music again.”

Presented by Radio Active, 95bFM, and RDU. Tickets go on sale to the general public at 12pm on Tuesday March 10.
