Aotearoa New Zealand outfit The Veils today announce new Australian tour dates. The tour will see the band perform exclusively at Oxford Arts Factory, Sydney and Northcote Social Club, Melbourne, this August, following the release of their new album Fragile World, out June 19 on V2 Records.

Arriving just over a year after their critically acclaimed Asphodels, Fragile World marks a striking shift in tone and energy for the band. Recorded live to tape in New Zealand by Paddy Hill, with production by Tom Healy (Folk Bitch Trio, Tiny Ruins, The Chills), Fragile World captures The Veils in an urgent and instinctive mode.

With its immediacy, intensity, and emotional clarity, Fragile World stands as one of The Veils’ most compelling releases to date. Since being signed to Rough Trade Records when lead singer Finn Andrews was just 16 years old, The Veils have now released eight studio albums: The Runaway Found (2004), Nux Vomica (2006), Sun Gangs (2009), Time Stays, We Go (2013), Total Depravity (2016), ...And Out Of The Void Came Love (2023), Asphodels (2025). As well as a fruitful collaboration with Run the Jewels’ El-P for their 2016 album Total Depravity, they have also been praised by film directors Paolo Sorrentino, Tim Burton and David Lynch, who have all used their music on their soundtracks.
