Folk champs The Waifs return with a new album and a mammoth tour.
The Perth/US trio returned with their sixth album, Temptation, and will play around the nation for the first time in two years.
Temptation is due to hit stores in early-March 2011 and they hit the road hard from late-February to the end of March over 22 dates.
It’s a monolithic, truly national tour, taking in Darwin, Far North Queensland and multiple dates in WA, including the usual spots.
Tickets will be on sale from most of the venues, or Ticketek.
