2022 saw Ball Park Music release album number seven Weirder & Weirder, yet another number 2 ARIA album from the band. triple j listeners voted the album in at #2 on the station’s annual favourite album poll in December, following the #21 spot for the album’s first single ‘Sunscreen’ on the 2021 Hottest 100 countdown, ‘Stars In My Eyes’ backed it up with an incredible #8 position on this year’s list. That’s 13 Ball Park Music “golden greats” ranking in triple j’s annual H100 poll!
The ‘Weirder & Weirder’ album tour also saw Ball Park Music perform their 500th show at Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion. NME said of the show “it was clear to see how they’ve continued to mean so much to so many over an illustrious run.”
The ‘GET THE F**KING NERDS BACK ON!’ TOUR 2023 proudly adds to that total and with the band performing in some of Australia’s most beautiful theatres, it will be a tour not to be missed. “Can’t wait for this one,” Cromack said. “Our appetite to perform is huge. We’re looking forward to getting back in some smaller theatres. They feel like our natural home. We wanna be close to the audience, to feel like we’re together in the same room. Paul got a new synth too, so that should be good.” You f**king nerd Cromack.
