The Paper Kites have released their new album 'At The Roadhouse' today via Nettwerk Music Group, a sixteen-song collection that serves as a gripping ode to what waits for us on the winding paths of love, loss, acceptance and wanderlust. Recorded among the red dirt and bushfire moons of Campbells Creek - a remote village outside their native Melbourne - the journey to 'At The Roadhouse' began with the five-piece working together to build the music venue of their dreams. Converting an old gold-mining supply shop into "The Roadhouse," The Paper Kites began to craft the album during an unannounced and unadvertised residency; building on the DIY spirit that's helped them continuously win over new fans one at a time - with remarkable results like a Platinum record in the US and over one billion Spotify streams to date. "There were no expectations or pressure around the performances - just us and a small room full of people," explains songwriter Sam Bentley of their residency at The Roadhouse. "The whole point was to try and connect with people and in turn develop a sense of community around the music - I think that’s what happened.”

The Paper Kites will bring 'At The Roadhouse' to North America this fall, with a run of headlining shows kicking off October 25 at Toronto's 1,500-capacity Danforth Music Hall. From there, notable stops include New York City on Halloween night at Racket, Nashville's 1,200-capacity Brooklyn Bowl, Washington DC's historic 1,200-capacity Howard Theatre and a three night Texas run from November 10-12. The band have previewed their enthralling 'At The Roadhouse' live shows with performance videos for each of the album's advance track - including "The Sweet Sound Of You," "Till The Flame Turns Blue," "Hurts So Good," "Black andamp; Thunder," "I Don't Want To Go That Way" and "June's Stolen Car." As No Depression noted in a recent album review, "anyone who steps into The Roadhouse — in person or via listening to the recording — can carry with them a light against the darkness."
