Bliss n Eso Party On The Moon PRESS SHOT 1 1

For more than 20 years, Bliss n Eso have built one of the most loyal fanbases in Australian hip hop — a passionate community of music and culture lovers who’ve stood by the Sydney trio through every chapter of their journey. Across eight studio albums, including now four ARIA #1s, nine ARIA nominations, two ARIA awards, over half a billion streams, and 50,000 tickets sold on their most recent national tour for The Sun, the group has carved out an enduring legacy.

Just a month after their 8^th studio album The Moon (The Light Side) flew straight to #1 on the ARIA Albums chart, Bliss n Eso are returning with a powerful companion record, picking up where its predecessor left off with The Moon (The Dark Side) – out Fri 3 Oct via Flight Deck / Mushroom Music, pre-order. The 9^th studio album delivers a rich, layered soundscape that showcases the iconic trio’s ambition and evolution which features the brand new single ‘Chemical Heart (GEED UP) feat. Grinspoon’ – a bold reimagining of Grinspoon’s classic Australian rock hit.

“When Grinspoon gave us their blessing to sample Chemical Heart years ago, we knew we had something seriously special. Bringing our raps and modern-day hip-hop production to this classic just fit perfectly… Seriously can’t wait to play this banger live!.” – Bliss n Eso

The Moon (The Dark Side) is available for pre-order now on exclusive Transparent Nebula Blue & Marbled Moon Glow Vinyl, alongside limited-edition merch.

The upcoming Party on the Moon tour supports Bliss n Eso’s recent ARIA #1 Album ‘The Moon (The Light Side)’ – out via Flight Deck / Mushroom Music, here – featuring the singles ‘Party On The Moon’, ‘Vacation’, ‘Feeling Fly’ and ‘Been Through Hell feat. Masked Wolf, 360 & Benny Morrell’.

Special guest on all shows will be Melbourne’s Ivan Ooze. After exploding into the spotlight in 2014, acclaimed rapper and industry stalwart Ivan Ooze has built a cult following through tours with Wu Tang Clan, Ice Cube, Azealia Banks and Peking Duk, as well as his own sold-out national tours and festivals. Check out ‘Ghosts’, ‘Way Past Them’, ‘FIRE’ and ‘Man Down’.
