Mission Control Supporting Ladytron this June
April 16, 2009 Posted by Eva at 11:47 am
etcetc’s very own Mission Control will be supporting Ladytron’s Brisbane and Melbourne shows in June.
Before Ladyhawke, before Lady Sovereign, and long before Lady Gaga, Ladytron were original catalysts in the rebirth of electro pop. Mission Control, meanwhile, have been busy recording their debut album, a follow up to their Innerspace EP which received plenty of love from Triple J, and their new single Silhouette can be heard there too if you ask nicely.
Being supported by Mission Control puts Ladytron in good company, with the boys having recently supported Bloc Party and The Mystery Jets, as well as opening the Sydney Festival.
Make sure you get tickets early – it won’t be the first time Ladytron have sold out in Australia!
