Royel Otis Announce 2025 North American ‘Meet Me in the Car' Tour Dates
Australian indie-rock duo Royel Otis have announced another run of U.S. tour dates, with the group detailing their latest round of shows while in the country. Announced on Monday (May 5), news of the group's Meet Me in the Car tour coincides with the first of two sold-out shows at the Troubadour in Los Angeles on Monday and Tuesday. The 12-date run of shows launches in Philadelphia at the Franklin Music Hall on Sept. 12 before wrapping up in New York City at The Rooftop at Pier 17 on Oct. 11.

Rosalía Said She's Just Trying 'Not to Forget My Lines' On the Set of 'Euphoria' Following their current Los Angeles shows, the Sydney duo will perform at both New York City's Governors Ball Music Festival and Tennessee's Bonnaroo festival ahead of a run of festival dates throughout Europe, the U.K., and North America before launching their own headline shows in September. Royel Otis first formed in 2019, releasing a series of EPs between 2021 and 2023 before issuing their debut album, Pratts & Pain in 2024. Though their 'Sofa King' track reached No. 12 on the Alternative Airplay chart in 2023, the band found widespread fame last year following their cover of Sophie Ellis-Bextor's 'Murder on the Dancefloor' for Australian radio station triple j's Like a Version series. The cover topped the Alternative Airplay charts and also peaked at No. 41 on the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart. The group's penchant for covers was again felt when their SiriusXM session rendition of The Cranberries' 'Linger' was released, giving them their first appearance on the Hot 100 when it reached No. 94. In late 2024, Royel Otis won four ARIA Awards from eight nominations, including best group and best rock album, while producer Chris Collins won best produced release and best engineered release for Pratts & Pain. Currently, Royal Otis are ostensibly preparing the launch of their latest era, having recently overhauled their socials with a largely minimalist approach. Alongside noting that 'there will be singing. and dancing. and new music' alongside their latest tour announcement, the group have been teasing a song which 'may or may not be called 'Moody'' for a May 9 release.

I'm a haunted doll collector... here's why the infamous Annabelle toy should NOT be on tour across the US
A haunted doll collector who houses 54 'spirits' has weighed in on the debate surrounding the allegedly paranormal Annabelle doll being taken on 'tour.' The Raggedy Anne doll was made famous back in the 1970s when paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren looked into alleged attacks made by the infamous toy. While they warned that she should never be moved, Annabelle is now currently touring the US alongside other items from the Warrens Occult Museum collection – leaving people online up in arms. Now, haunted doll collector Teej, who has over 50 paranormal items in her possession, has issued a stark warning about the Annabelle tour. She insisted, however, that we shouldn't be so quick to make snap judgements about the toy, and said that she believes the haunted doll is misunderstood. 'Do I believe that Annabelle is responsible for all of the tragedy that she is being blamed for right now? Absolutely not,' the US-based woman told What's The Jam recently. 'Most of the stories tied to her are unverified and don't have any evidence to back them up. 'Honestly, I believe that Annabelle deserves a fresh investigation with an unbiased investigation team, to figure out what is actually going on with her.' Teej said she believes the doll's narrative was 'created' by the Warrens following their initial investigation. She added: 'This was a very long time ago and, since then, she has been sensationalized in Hollywood. 'We don't even know Annabelle's true story. We owe it not only to her, but to all spirits, to start asking the real questions and getting evidence on who they are and what happened to them. 'People keep saying "bring Annabelle home," but the truth is – Annabelle doesn't have a home. 'The Warrens Occult Museum has been closed to the public since 2019, so she [was] not at home – she was in storage. Locked away, not honored, not protected, not valued.' Teej pointed out that the doll has spent her entire 'afterlife' on display in a museum being 'gawked at, disrespected, and sensationalized for money' – without any way to 'defend' herself from the claims. 'Imagine being the center of basically an entire country's fear without any voice of your own, and no one to look out for and defend you,' she continued. 'Spirits like Annabelle are not props – no spirit is.' Teej explained that all purported spirits should be treated with 'dignity, respect and kindness' – no matter the rumors that have dogged them over the years. In Annabelle's case, the doll dates back to 1970 when she was gifted to a nursing student, who was told by a psychic medium that the doll was inhabited by the spirit of a deceased girl named Annabelle. The student and her roommate reported 'malicious and frightening' behaviors from the doll. Annabelle reportedly moved on her own and at one point attacked the fiancé of one of its owners. That's when the Warrens stepped in to investigate, deemed it to be demonic, and moved it to their museum. Annabelle then became one of the most well-known haunted items following the Conjuring and Annabelle movie franchises. The doll is now on tour across the globe through the Devils on the Run Tour, which takes items, including Annabelle, from the Warrens Occult Museum collection in Monroe to various cities to display them to horror buffs. Teej started connecting with the paranormal in childhood, encouraged by her family who took her on ghost hunts, and had her first encounter at the age of six. She said: 'We were in a parking lot using an Ovilus, which is a device that turns environmental energy into words that appear on a screen – a common spirit communication tool still used by investigators to this day. 'Out of nowhere, the Ovilus said, "Get out of the way, fast." We didn't wait, we moved immediately. 'Right after we cleared the area, a car whipped around the corner. It was really dark, and if we hadn't moved, there's a good chance we could've been hit. 'That moment stuck with me, not just because it was my first clear experience, but because it felt like a spirit was trying to help us. 'That was the first time I felt like a spirit interaction was actually positive, and that's something I've kept in mind ever since. 'It's a big part of why I'm now interested in haunted dolls, specifically ones with positive energy. That early experience shaped the way I look at the paranormal today.' She started collecting haunted dolls in 2020 – but will only house ones with positive intentions. 'What pulled me in were the stories behind them, specifically the personal accounts, the unexplained experiences, and the history behind some of the more well-known cases,' she continued. 'I spent a lot of time researching and reading about them, trying to understand what made each case unique. 'I choose to work only with positive spirits in my home because of the relationships that naturally develop over time. 'Many of these spirits have a genuine desire to communicate and be acknowledged, and that opens the door to meaningful and respectful connections. 'We treat them with respect, and in return, they do the same. Our interactions are often lighthearted and much of the paranormal activity in our home is playful, sometimes even meant to make us laugh. 'Just as importantly, I'm mindful of safety. When I investigate haunted locations, I always have the option to leave. 'But my home is my safe space, and I won't risk inviting in any spirit that could bring harm or disruption to me or my family. 'By setting clear boundaries, I'm able to stay open to paranormal experiences while still protecting the comfort and peace of our home.' She added of the recent news about Annabelle: 'While I know Annabelle is currently on tour and it's easy to fall into the trap of assuming all haunted dolls behave like the famous ones, it's important to remember that every spirit is unique 'No two spirits are exactly alike, and many are actually positive or neutral in nature. 'Making broad generalizations that all haunted dolls are dangerous or negative can be harmful and misleading. 'It's essential to take the time to get to know each spirit individually before jumping to conclusions about their behavior or intentions.'

Australian Indie-pop band Sheppard CANCEL their US tour for heartbreaking reason - after selling just 59 tickets to show in Poland
Australian indie-pop band Sheppard have made the shock decision to cancel their upcoming American tour for a heartbreaking reason. The band shared a sad statement to social media on Friday confirming the scheduled concerts would not be going ahead, due to the challenging reality of touring. 'To our beautiful fans, I'm afraid we have some rather upsetting news. We've had to make the incredibly difficult decision to cancel our upcoming US tour,' they began. The Geronimo hitmakers had been performing across Europe earlier this year and were set to bring their shows to the States in June. They revealed a combination of the high touring costs and challenging concert logistics meant it was no longer feasible for them to perform in America, and reassured those who had already bought a ticket they would be refunded. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'A combination of sky-high touring costs, ambitious production standards so that we can give you the show you deserve and complex logistics have made this tour impossible,' they wrote. 'We're heartbroken. Being on stage in front of our fans - watching you not just sing but feel every word in our words - is always the greatest experience of our lives. 'Please know this isn't the end. It's just a pause. We're taking time to reset, to rebuild a more sustainable path forward.' Devastated fans took to the comment section to share their sadness over the band's shock decision. 'I was so looking forward to this concert, but it's okay! Next time,' one person wrote. 'Guys, better times will come, you've worked so hard this past year,' a second added. It comes after the band made the shock decision to not cancel their recent concert in Poland, despite selling just 59 tickets to the show. The Brisbane-based band were performing across Europe and had a scheduled performance in Warsaw on April 12 that sold below expectations. However, the band decided the show must go on and played their hearts out to a small yet passionate crowd. They later shared a clip to social media revealing why they made the decision to continue with the performance. '59 people showed up to our show in Poland. We knew we had only sold minimal tickets but also knew the people that would show up would be our biggest fans,' they began. 'We knew that no matter what we had to show up for them. So we got on stage and gave it 100 per cent.' Sheppard formed in 2009 and the current line-up comprises of siblings Amy, Emma and George Sheppard and Jon Butterworth. The band shot to fame in 2014 with the song Geronimo. The track reached number one in Australia and also charted in America and the UK. They have released four studio albums, all of which have made the top ten in Australia. They are still scheduled to perform two shows in Queensland, Australia and will take the stage in Port Douglas on May 24 and Logan Central on May 31.
