Joining Empire of the Sun on all Australian dates is alt-electro duo Sumner. Comprised of Chloe Wilson and Jack McLaine, the Tassie pair have garnered critical acclaim for their captivating melodies, intricate electronic production, and authentic lyrics.
Catching the world’s attention in 2018 with their self-released material, Sumner signed to Nick Littlemore and Peter Mayes’ (PNAU) label Lab78 soon after. Releasing their single ‘Stranded’ in 2021, this marked the beginning of a series of singles co-written and produced by PNAU, that propelled the Tasmanian duo to new heights. With over 2.5 million streams and heavy airplay, the song quickly became triple J’s most-played track for over a week.
Sumner has recently supported acclaimed artists such as SAFIA, PNAU and Boo Seeka and has performed at Party In The Paddock, For The Love and Wine Machine, leaving audiences wanting more of their addictive live show.
