Missy Higgins' first new studio album in five years, 'The Ol' Razzle Dazzle,' isn't out in the U.S. until July 17, but Australian critics are already raving. Missy was recently featured on the cover of the Sunday Herald Sun, Rolling Stone Australia praised her new album as "a brilliant re-entrance," and PETA even named her "Australia's Sexiest Vegetarian."
Missy will perform two intimate album release shows in NYC and LA ahead of her U.S. fall tour opening for Gotye.
