Hands Like Houses have returned with ‘Flowers’, a commanding new single that doubles as a statement of intent ahead of their April Lótus Tour with Dream On Dreamer.
Out now via Civilians, the track lands as the Canberra heavyweights gear up for a national run that blends established firepower with grassroots support. “Flowers” is about the quiet exhaustion of always being the one who shows up, carries the weight, and keeps going when it would be easier to walk away, it speaks to the need for recognition, not fame or praise, but simple acknowledgment that the effort mattered.
The sentiment doesn’t stop at the studio version, in the lead up to the tour, the band launched a nationwide search inviting local artists to apply via social media for opening slots at each show.
It’s a practical extension of the song’s message, if you’re grinding it out in your hometown, this is your shot to step onto a bigger stage.
Lótus Tour Kicks Off In April
The Lótus Tour pairs Hands Like Houses with post-hardcore mainstays Dream On Dreamer for a tight run across the country, it kicks off April 16th at The Baso in Canberra before rolling through Sydney, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, Albury, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
Fresh off a #2 ARIA album and a #4 ARIA deluxe release, plus national tours alongside The Used and The Butterfly Effect, Hands Like Houses are hardly coasting with more than 280 million Spotify streams and a triple j Feature Album nod back up their staying power.
Two respected heavy rock acts on one bill is already a solid draw, opening that space to emerging talent makes it something bigger.
‘Flowers’ is streaming now.
