Aussie band break-up but will play in Perth one more time
Northeast Party House has called time on their career as a band, having been together for 15 years and more than a year after their guitarist quit. The electronic band hailing from Melbourne announced on Tuesday, taking to social media to share the devastating news. 'From the very beginning, our dream was to make shows feel like house parties with friends. We never imagined that party would last 15 years,' the band said on Instagram. 'It's been a wild, lucky, beautiful ride.' However, the band will be leaving fans with a bang, going on one last run of shows across the country on The Final Party tour. Kicking off at Freo Social on October 17, the band will stop off in Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. 'We want to throw one last party — a big thank you to everyone who's danced, sung, written to us, shared a stage or a story,' they said. If you'd like to view this content, please adjust your .
