Philadelphia Grand Jury have never done things the conventional way, from launching their first album Hope Is For Hopers by playing shows around Sydney on the back of a truck, to recording in a dangerously unfinished building site, to holding a listening party for their latest album Summer Of Doom on a free bus around the city. So it somehow makes sense that they’re about to embark on a concept tour, taking their already infamous crowd interaction to the next level.
Getting personal at up-close venues around the country, the Philly Jays will be creating their very own karaoke bars where some lucky fans will be able to get up on stage and join the band to sing their favourite Philadelphia Grand Jury songs. There might even be some classic karaoke covers thrown in there as well.
