Sin City kick-off European tour behind THIRD full-length album of 2020 “Sin City Or Bust”

Sin City proclaim the Apocalypse be damned!! This insanity kicks off tomorrow night in Kortrijk, Belgium and they'll be chasing the party across Europe for the next few weeks.

When the ever-profligate pair of Cavemen, Nick and Jack, found themselves quarantined in a sleazy flat in Alicante, Spain with only an acoustic guitar and piano this Spring, the New Zealand rockers got busy recording three albums worth of booze-soaked numbers.

Sin City wrote and recorded a project of songs inspired by their love for Mink Deville, Gram Parsons, Glen Campbell, Phil Spector, Van Morrison, and other favorite country, soul and rock n’ roll artists and records. Staying true to their name, if the pandemic can’t stop Sin City, then nothing can!

Reprobate Media · Sin City - She's Got No Heart

"The project consists of thirteen songs, of country ballads, old fashioned soul crooners, and classic rock ‘n’ roll bops. The album has the perfect vibe to reminisce on better days and help yourself out of the 2020 blues" - PlayTooMuch

Reprobate Media · Sin City - Bet Your Life (feat Pansy)

"Spanish-based spaghetti dad rockers Sin City, who are preparing to release their third – yes, their THIRD – album this year alone, which they have prefaced with this cautionary, but highly fun, tale of a woman with no heart. If nothing else, this slice of pure cheese will put a smile on your face wider than the Cheddar Gorge" - Uber Rock
