Having just completed a triumphant run of dates in the UK, a performance for uber cool website ‘Black Cab Sessions’ and a powerful performance at England’s coolest boutique festival ‘Secret Garden Party’ The UK love for Cloud Control continues with a freshly inked deal with Infectious Records, home to local super novas The Temper Trap and indie heroes Local Natives.
The love for Cloud Control continues on home soil too with the band being listed in the 1st round of J Award Nominations for Album Of The Year, alongside local heavyweights Tame Impala and Sia. The four piece got to show their wares recently at Splendour In The Grass Festival, where punters packed into a rammed GW McLennan tent, (spilling out literally into the thousands) to get a glimpse of the action. Cementing themselves for many as a Splendour highlight.
Their latest single ‘‘There’s Nothing In The Water We Can’t Fight’’ has been racing across the national airwaves and has been met with as much praise as previous singles ‘‘Gold Canary’’ and ‘‘This Is What I Said’’ making it a hat trick of hits. Local Art Duo Greedy Hen have just created a stunning video for the new single. The Sydney Art collective won the 2008 SMAC Awards and have recently made videos for the likes of Josh Pyke, Washington, and The Middle East and have been responsible for designing Cloud Control’s EP, Album and poster art, making them the perfect candidates for the next video.
All this action is a cause for celebration and as such Cloud Control will be hitting the road again this September / October for a full national tour. Joining them will be 2 of Sydney’s most promising acts, Electronic Whiz Kids Seekae and Psych Pop Maestros Deep Sea Arcade.
