The core lineup of Melbourne indie rock outfit Children Collide have announced a pair of one-off shows for later this month.

After spending several years apart, the trio got back together for rehearsals while vocalist/guitarist Johnny Mackay was back in town from New York for Melbourne Music Week. They’re set to play special shows in Sydney and Melbourne, but there’s no word of any gigs beyond that, so fans are advised to grab tickets quick.

Children Collide will hit Oxford Art Factory on Thursday January 15. Tickets are available through Moshtix.
