X-Mas Even Shows + East Coast Dates
EVEN hit the road this December / January for three very special shows In Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, relaunching their debut album ‘Less Is More’ as it celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.
With the Melbourne show doubling as the bands annual X-Mas EVEN show, these East Coast dates will give fans the chance to hear all the classics from the seminal album including the three hit singles, ‘Don’t Wait’, ‘Peaches and Cream’ and ‘Stop and Go Man’.
EVEN toured Australia with Perth indie Rockers Header back in ’96, who have reformed for this very special occasion, and will join EVEN for the east shows alongside Mike Noga Band and The Plastic Crowns.
For all fans purchasing a ticket in advance, EVEN are offering every presale ticket holder a free 7″ picture disc featuring ‘Don’t Wait’ from their debut album ‘Less is More’, and their latest single ‘Little Piece’.

In 1996, EVEN released their widely anticipated debut album ‘Less Is More’ through Rubber Records. The album was critically acclaimed and received an ARIA nomination for Best Independent release, and the band were named Rolling Stone Hot Band of the Year.
Recorded by Greg Wales and mixed by Nick Launay, ‘Less Is More’ was also recognised by The Age EG in 2008 in their Top 50 Australian Albums of All Time, coming in at #36, wedged between Rose Tattoo and AC/DC.
While the band members Ashley Naylor, Matthew Cotter & Wally Kempton remain the same in 2016, the reissue of ‘Less Is More’ has been remastered by John Ruberto at Mastersound with new cover art layout by Mark Van De Beek from Beek Creative.
The reissue of ‘Less Is More’ will be on vinyl only and available at all shows.
With a single ‘Little Piece’ recently released and their 7th album nearing completion, 20 years on, EVEN are stronger than ever.
