Sleep Theory has treated fans to a new EP, Paper Hearts – Reimagined, a stripped-back take on their 2023 debut release.

Taking away the heavy sound they are known for, Sleep Theory delivers an emotion-charged collection of songs that highlights the dynamic range of vocalist Cullen Moore.

The release coincides with venue upgrades for the Memphis outfit's upcoming Australian tour.

Heading our way in support of their 2025 album Afterglow alongside RIVALS, Sleep Theory get things underway at Fremantle's Metropolis on Saturday 6 February. The band then performs at Thebarton Theatre in Adelaide on Wednesday 10 February, followed by Festival Hall in Melbourne and two gigs in Sydney at Metro Theatre on Saturday 13 February and Enmore Theatre on Sunday 14 February, before the final concert in Brisbane at The Tivoli on Monday 15 February.

Ahead of their Aussie run of shows, Sleep Theory have several US festivals lined up before they tour the UK and Europe with Papa Roach.
