The tour comes in support of San Cisco’s fifth studio album, Under The Light, which arrived last Friday (March 1). In the latest cover story for TheMusic.com.au, lead vocalist Jordi Davieson told Bryget Chrisfield: “This record is a lot more reflective and we’re looking at things from a lot more angles as opposed to, like, ‘Here’s a love song. I love you. I love you this much…’ It’s more like, ‘This is the intricate, in the weeds of what relationships are like – with friends, with family, with archetypes that you maybe steer away from – and how you interpret them…’
“We’ve grown up a bit and it’s a little bit more all-encompassing; they’re not just cut-and-dried breakup songs or love songs.”
