Tortoise Return To Melbourne
The Chicago instrumental five-piece Tortoise are returning down under this October.
In a career that spans over two decades and includes six critically acclaimed studio albums, Tortoise are an astonishing fusion of minimalism, techno, dub, rock and jazz - producing sonic soundscapes which in a live setting are unmissable.
Tortoise hit the Corner Hotel with Grails on Saturday October 13. Tickets through Moshtix.
