EZEKIEL OX SIGNS SOLO DEAL WITH BIRD'S ROBE RECORDS AND ANNOUNCES NATIONAL "ON THE RECORD" HEADLINE TOUR TO DESTROY THE BUDGET BLUES 

The voice and heartbeat of defunct underground heros Full Scale, Mammal, The Nerve, and the still firing Over-Reactor has a had a massive 2014 since announcing his solo ambitions in January. 

This year has seen him support Boots Reily (The Coup, Street Sweeper Social Club), King Of The North, Sietta and Tim McMillan live, as well as appearing on stage and street with fellow buskers/headliners The Pierce Brothers (video). Forever relentless, he also found the time to write, record, mix and collate his debut EP "RAW STYLES", which has had tracks spun on JJJ and community radio around the country, and features production from James Mangohig (Briggs, Daniel Johns). 

This has lead to Sydney's art-rock champions, Bird's Robe Records (sleepmakeswaves, The Red Paintings, 65 Days Of Static) getting on board to release "RAW STYLES" officially to coincide with the tour.  Zeke couldn't be happier: 

"Mike and Bird's Robe were instrumental in the development of the The Nerve, and I took RAW STYLES to him first when I was shopping it around.  Having Bird's Robe on board gives me the support of a label that do it for the right reasons, and in the right way." 

Described by showbiz renegade Eddie Perfect as "so good, he's dangerous",  Ox is taking his new 'cyber/punk-hop/cabaret" around the country this October, November and December.  He'll be holding court in VIC, NSW, QLD, ACT, SA, WA and NT, bringing the protest, the beat and the his legendary energy to the far corners of Australia. 

In the coming weeks, Ox will also be releasing film clips for his singles "The Past, Present and Future" and "Policeman", the latter of which was performed live on the steps of Victorian Parliament in protest against Aboriginal Deaths In Custody. 

All 16 national dates are below, and support announcements will be coming soon, so stay tuned.
