The Bedroom Philosopher Announces his “Head Sex and Bed Socks” national tour.
The thinking woman’s folk-ruffian, The Bedroom Philosopher is cranking the electric blanket up to ten with his National “Head Sex and Bed Socks” tour. To combat winter he’ll be layering his thermals and his performance with a radical rumpus of wit, song smarts and madcap banter. The only-child over-achiever is Australia’s Rushmore, recently releasing a single, co hosting triple j breakfast, staging a high school assembly, appearing on Spicks & Specks, starting a monthly music column ‘Treble Treble’ for Mess & Noise and presenting for ABC’s Collectors. Oh and he just released a brand new film clip. RAGE made it their ‘Indie Clip Of The Week’ the week before last and you can see it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrUJ_NGipv4
The Head Sex and Bed Socks Tour will see the BP in solo mode, aiming to connect intimately with his fans whilst previewing tracks from forthcoming album ‘Man’ – a series of manthems for the modern day retrosexual. The run of seated venues will ensure a cosy atmosphere, where lyrics can be savoured and pondered.
Sans his Awkwardstra, in solo mode The Bedroom Philosopher is a different beast – more likely to throw a tangent tantrum, showcasing his trademark flair for improvised songs and fuax-diva stunts.
Like snowflakes, no two The Bedroom Philosopher shows are ever the same, catch him (w’ special guest Melbourne singer/songwriter Catboy):
