Featured Music Event

INCLUDING FOUR A DAY ON THE GREEN SHOWS

In 2017 Midnight Oil returned from a long hiatus with a sweat drenched pub gig at the legendary Sydney venue, Selinas. In the middle of that special set, frontman Peter Garrett borrowed some famous lines, exhorting “rage, rage, against the dying of the light”. And that’s exactly what they’ve done ever since. They sold out 77 shows in 16 countries on their epic “Great Circle” tour. They toured Europe again, did a memorable gig in the outback, then returned to the studio for the first time in over 18 years and recorded 20 new songs. The first batch of that material, The Makarrata Project, debuted at #1 on the same weekend that longtime bass player Bones Hillman sadly died. Despite that profound blow, and a global pandemic, the band and their First Nations Collaborators still mounted their acclaimed “Makarrata Live” shows early this year – championing the Uluru Statement and highlighting ongoing injustices suffered by First Nations people.

Today Midnight Oil announced that this chapter of their career will come to a memorable close next year with the release of the other 12 new songs they recorded with Bones and a series of big gigs. Both are aptly titled Resist.

The band also announced that this will be their final concert tour while making it clear that this does not mean the end of the Oils. Each of the members will continue their own projects over the years ahead. They remain very open to recording new music together in future and supporting causes in which they believe, but this will be their last tour.

Meanwhile Resist will be a fitting, forward-looking, statement for a band whose clarion call has always been “it’s better to die on your feet than live on your knees”. The tour will see them performing classic Midnight Oil songs from across their repertoire while also showcasing some urgent new works. As the title makes abundantly clear, Resist engages with the issues of today and tomorrow – like the lead single Rising Seas which tackles the climate crisis in typically uncompromising fashion.

The album pre-order and Australasian tickets will go on-sale from next Tuesday 30 November. Dates, venues and all other info is detailed below. A handful of international concerts is also being considered (subject to Covid restrictions).

Rob Hirst says: “If I look back, I see a blur of familiar names and faces: Jim, Pete, Martin, Bear and me, slamming loud prog-pop in a Chatswood garage; Giffo, magnificent, rocking back and forth at his first Royal Antler gig; Bonesy, headphones on, singing, lounging on the deck learning our catalogue.

“I see our managers in their offices – Gary, Zev and John; our tour managers in their cars and buses – Constance, Neil, and Willie Mac; our producers in their studios, Keith, Lez, Glyn, Nick and Warne; and our crew on countless stages, Michael, Oysters, Ozzy, Doc, Nick, Jock, Gerry – and so many more.

“I see our folks-in-the-engine-room that the outside world has never seen: Stephanie, Wayne, Diana, Arlene, Jonesy, Craig, Geoff H, Chris P, Peter T, and Mel C.

“I see our wives and trusted friends, and the tiny faces of the 'Baby Oils’, watching us from side of stage, from Sydney to Sao Paulo to Saskatoon.

“But mostly, blinded by stage lights, I see the first two rows of a thousand gigs: Midnight Oil fans, pumping, jumping, singing louder than the band.

“But I don’t look back.”

Peter Garrett says: “We all know time refuses to stand still for anyone but after many years together the band’s spirit is deep, the music and words are strong, and our ideas and actions as bold as we can make them. We’ve reached people in ways we never could have imagined. Our desire to create and speak out is undimmed. We hope everyone who hears this album and gets to one of the shows will come away charged up about the planet’s future, saying ‘why stop now?'.  Having always tackled every tour like it's the last – this time it actually will be.”

Jim Moginie says: “We’ve played intensely physical gigs since our humble beginnings back in 1977 and we never want to take even the slightest risk of compromising that.  A lot has happened over the last five years. Much has been achieved and with the passing of Bones much has been lost, so it now feels like we’re at the end of a cycle.

“These will be sad and beautiful gigs but luckily we’re still capable of blowing the roof off any stage and that’s what we intend to do. You could call this a farewell tour, but Midnight Oil will still continue in some form or other as we’re brothers, family. We stand as one, dependent on each other and grateful in all the important ways that make great bands great.”

Martin Rotsey says: “A huge thank you to all our fans around the world. We’ve shared so much together from the swelter of Sydney pubs to magical nights under starry skies. Your energy took us further than we could ever have dreamed.

“To those down the front in the maelstrom, those at the back of the room singing their hearts out, and all of those onstage, backstage, and back home who helped make everything possible, we send our thanks.”

Resist will be Midnight Oil’s 15th studio release since the band exploded out of the post-punk scene back in 1978, blazing a singular trail of blistering gigs through Australia’s pubs and clubs. In the four decades since they have created an unparalleled string of classic tracks including I Don’t Wanna Be The One, Power & The Passion, US Forces, Best Of Both Worlds, The Dead Heart, Blue Sky Mine, Forgotten Years, Truganini, Redneck Wonderland, Say Your Prayers and the 2020 APRA Song of the Year, Gadigal Land (feat. Dan Sultan, Joel Davison, Kaleena Briggs and Bunna Lawrie). Their Diesel & Dust LP topped the critics’ “100 Best Australian Albums Of All Time” and its worldwide hit Beds Are Burning is one of the “500 Songs That Shaped Rock’n’Roll” according to the U.S. Rock’n’Roll Hall Of Fame. The band’s performance of that song at the Sydney Olympics is etched in the memory of billions.

From the northern beaches of Sydney to the streets of Manhattan, they have stopped traffic, inflamed passions, inspired fans, challenged the concepts of “business as usual” and broken much new ground. Seeing Midnight Oil in full flight is to experience the kinetic power of live rock’n’roll. They leave you inspired to live life more passionately and to Resist.

Midnight Oil calls for governments to urgently take serious actions that reduce carbon pollution. This tour will embrace best practices for emission reductions and offsetting. A portion of proceeds will be set aside for organisations seeking to elevate the existential threat posed by the climate crisis.

In addition to these shows, the band has already announced special appearances in Tasmania for Mona Foma 2022 and at Byron Bay Bluesfest next Easter. Details about those festival events at monafoma.net.au and bluesfest.com.au

Don’t miss a very special Midnight Oil performance on The Sound this Sunday 28 November at 5.30pm on ABC TV or ABC iview.

The ‘If I Don’t Hear From You Tonight’ singer is currently on the road in the USA, hitting stages across the States in support of her recently released, critically acclaimed third album Things Take Time, Take Time, out now via Milk! Records / Remote Control.

Due to overwhelming demand from fans back home, promoters are pleased to announce Barnett’s show at Melbourne’s The Forum on Thursday 17 March is officially sold out! A 2nd Melbourne performance for Friday 18 March has been added today, with Barnett now set to play back-to-back nights at the iconic venue.

Sydney fans, we’ve got the news you’ve been waiting for. Supported by the NSW Government together with ARIA (Australian Recording Industry Association), Courtney Barnett will also perform a headline show at the Enmore Theatre on Friday 25 March. The gig is part of the Great Southern Nights initiative – a celebration of live music in March and April 2022, which will see hundreds of live COVID-safe gigs taking place across Greater Sydney and regional NSW. 

Tickets to both new dates announced today are on sale immediately – head to frontiertouring.com/courtneybarnett.

Today we also announce that Barnett will be joined at all dates by Wergaia / Wemba Wemba songwriter and artist Alice Skye. It’s been a huge year for the Naarm-based singer, who released her hugely anticipated sophomore album I Feel Better But I Don’t Feel Good back in July, while she also collaborated with Midnight Oil on their release The Makarrata Project and featured on US superstar Moby’s latest album Reprise. Charming, driven and emotionally astute, Alice is one of Australia’s brightest and most prolific lyricists. With gorgeous tracks like ‘Party Tricks’, it’s no surprise her name is on everyone’s lips.

One of the most crucial voices of our time, don’t miss Courtney Barnett live on stage, touring March 2022!

INCLUDING TWO A DAY ON THE GREEN SHOWS

We’re back! After the toughest two years in a day on the green’s 21-year history, Australia’s favourite outdoor concert event is proud to announce its return with the a day on the green debut for one of the biggest live bands in the world – THE KILLERS.
 

Roundhouse Entertainment and Frontier Touring are thrilled to welcome THE KILLERS back to Australia and New Zealand for a massive nine-date mix of arena and outdoor shows on their Imploding The Mirage Tour 2022 in November-December. Originally announced in 2020 when COVID first halted worldwide touring, this will be THE KILLERS' first time back on our shores since their 2018 Australasian tour which included ten completely sold-out arena shows.    
 

The tour will see THE KILLERS make their a day on the green debut with two big outdoor shows – Peter Lehmann in the Barossa Valley, SA on Saturday 3 December and Mt Duneed Estate in Geelong, VIC on Saturday 10 December, 2022.
 

Tickets on sale Monday 15 November via adayonthegreen.com.au/thekillers
 

THE KILLERS will play headline shows and festivals across the globe in celebration of their sixth studio album, the critically acclaimed ARIA #1 album Imploding The Mirage (out now through Island Records/Universal Music Australia).

“The Killers are the pinnacle of live music performances and should be seen for both the spectacle and showmanship of the band.” – The Advertiser

Earlier this year while touring was still on hold due to the pandemic, THE KILLERS released their seventh studio album, the quieter, character-study-driven Pressure Machine.  It’s an aural document of growing up – and living – in the American Southwest, told from a myriad of perspectives.  Pressure Machine includes Quiet Town and Runaway Horses (featuring Phoebe Bridgers). The band performed album track In Another Life on The Late Late Show with James Corden. 
 

Imploding The Mirage was self-produced by the band in partnership with musical engineer Shawn Everett (The War On Drugs, Kacey Musgraves, Beck) and Foxygen multi-instrumentalist Jonathan Rado. The album, as a whole, is heavily influenced by the likes of Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel, Bruce Springsteen and New Order and was a return to the Heartland Rock sounds of much-loved albums like Sam’s Town and Battle Born. The list of featured artists includes Lindsey Buckingham, k.d. lang, Weyes Blood, Adam Granduciel (War On Drugs), Blake Mills, and Lucius.

“If Wonderful Wonderful was an arm around a trembling shoulder, Imploding The Mirage is a raised fist to the future. It’s the sort of attitude that could help us all endure such trying times, and The Killers’ sixth album sounds unbreakable too. They long ago reached their natural pumped-up radio rock peak, yet here sound as though they’ve been hitting the sonic steroids. The Killers have made another dazzling statement of ultra-modern pomp, and one arguably even more in step with new generations of alt-rock. It’s a musical DeLorean: rooted in mainstream Americana but speeding into adventurous horizons.”  ★★★★ – NME

THE KILLERS first burst onto the scene in 2004, topping Australian charts and going double platinum with debut album Hot Fuss. Featuring hit singles Mr. Brightside and Somebody Told Me, the album received instant popularity and widespread international success. Since then, the band have sold more than 30 million albums worldwide, and headlined all of the world’s top festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza, Glastonbury, and received countless accolades, including multiple Grammy nominations, American Music Award nominations, MTV Video Music Awards and NME Awards. THE KILLERS have amassed more than 393 million streams and sold more than one million albums (and counting) in Australia alone!
 

On the very same day that 2017’s Wonderful Wonderful hit #1 on the ARIA Album chart, the band took to the stage at the hallowed Melbourne Cricket Ground for the 2017 AFL Grand Final and absolutely nailed their set: 

“The Killers’ set has already started to be considered as one of the greatest AFL performances.” - Tone Deaf
 

“The Killers have killed it with the crowd at the AFL Grand Final as they kicked off pre-game festivities in front of a packed MCG with a bite-size rock festival” - Herald Sun

THE KILLERS are exceptionally well-loved Down Under with all ten shows on the band’s 2018 tour completely selling out. 
 

Live music is back and we’re thrilled to welcome fans back to a day on the green to celebrate our 21st season. Secure tickets now for these not-to-be-missed shows.

ALL SHOWS ALL AGES
TICKETS ON SALE FRIDAY 12 NOVEMBER

Frontier Touring are thrilled to announce Vance Joy’s The Long Way Home Tour. Multi award-winning Australian singer-songwriter Vance Joy is ready to embark on the tour he's been waiting his whole career for. Joined by his full band, and some very special guests, the tour will see Vance travelling across Australia for more than two months, playing regional towns and major cities from early September to late November 2022. All shows will be all-ages events.
 

The tour announcement comes off the back of Vance Joy’s five ARIA Award nominations, including Best Artist, Best Pop Release for his latest hit, Missing Piece, and Song of the Year.
 

Vance Joy will play outdoor shows in Darwin, Cairns, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Canberra, Newcastle, Gippsland, Hobart, Adelaide, Busselton, Sydney and Melbourne.

“I've been talking about doing a tour like this one for years, so it's incredibly exciting that it's becoming a reality. I love touring in Australia and can't wait to really explore the country on this extended tour, playing not just the cities but also the regional areas too.
 

“I'm also pumped that I get to go on the road with some of my favourite artists: The Rubens, Thelma Plum, Middle Kids, Budjerah and Mia Wray. It's been way too long since I've been on tour in Australia so I cannot wait to re-connect with everyone again and play some new songs as well as the favourites.”
 – Vance Joy

The Long Way Home Tour will give Vance Joy the opportunity to perform for his fans across Australia, in a tour that celebrates the magic of live music, gathering together and sharing the spirit of community; all the things that we’ve been reminded of the importance of in the past 18 months.
 

After travelling to all corners of the country, Vance Joy will perform two shows at one of Australia’s most iconic locations with one of the world’s most recognisable backdrops – the Sydney Opera House Forecourt, and then complete The Long Way Home Tour with a final hometown show at Melbourne’s Sidney Myer Music Bowl, almost a decade to the day since he played his first ticketed headline show to just a handful of fans at The Toff In Town in 2012.
 

Joining Vance on The Long Way Home Tour will be an array of hand-picked guest artists and friends including The Rubens, Thelma Plum, Middle Kids, Budjerah and Mia Wray.
 

One of Australia’s finest contemporary singer-songwriters, Vance Joy has had two number one albums – 2014’s Dream Your Life Away and 2018’s Nation of Two. He has won two ARIA awards and 10 of his songs are now ARIA-certified platinum or multi-platinum, including his breakout hit Riptide, which is currently 12x platinum. Riptide also topped triple j’s Hottest 100 and was APRA’s Song of the Year in 2014.
 

Vance Joy’s story is equally as impressive globally. His singles – including Riptide, Mess is Mine, Georgia, Fire and the Flood, Lay It On Me, I'm With You, Saturday Sun and We're Going Home – have been streamed more than 3.2 billion times. Nation of Two cracked the US Top 10 and hit number two in Canada. And he has appeared on a swag of UK and US TV shows including Jimmy Kimmel Live, Late Night with Seth Myers, Jools Holland, The Today Show and Good Morning America.
 

Vance Joy’s affable charm and unassuming nature has won hearts around the globe and saw him perform 83 dates on his Nation of Two tour, with performances at dream venues such as Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado. He has played festivals around the world including Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and Splendour in the Grass and also toured stadiums in direct support of pop powerhouses Taylor Swift and P!NK.
 

Vance Joy returned in 2021 with a collaboration with Marshmello and Benny Blanco, You, becoming an international radio smash.
 

Missing Piece – a rousing song for our times about navigating long distance relationships and the euphoria of reuniting – became Vance Joy’s seventh Top 40 hit in Australia, is Top 5 at Alt Radio in the US and Canada and was featured in iconic US TV show Grey's Anatomy. Vance Joy recently performed the song on The Late Late Show with James Corden, performing from the Antoni Gaudí building, Casa Vicens, in Barcelona, and Missing Piece will make its Australian TV debut with a performance on The Sound on ABC TV and ABC iview this Sunday night at 5.30pm.
 

The Long Way Home Tour will be an unforgettable homecoming for one of Australia’s favourite artists. In the tour that he’s always dreamed of, and his biggest Australian tour yet, Vance Joy will give us all a chance to finally come together again and celebrate the best of Australian music. This promises to be one of 2022’s most special events.
 

Frontier Members can access pre-sale tickets from Wednesday 10 November, 10.00am local time, before tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday 12 November, 12.00pm midday local time. Secure your tickets early.

“The Strokes are still one of the best bands in the world.” DIY

Secret Sounds is thrilled to announce that NY rock icons, The Strokes will play sideshows in Melbourne and Sydney, their first Australian headline dates for a decade, when they head to Australia for Splendour in the Grass in July 2022. Accompanied by The Chats and The Lazy Eyes, punters are in for one helluva show.
 

Armed with songs from their 20 year, six-album catalogue, The Strokes live set will also feature tracks from their 2021 Grammy Award winning Best Rock Album The New Abnormal.

Formed in NY in the late 90s, it is impossible to overstate the impact that The Strokes made on the global music scene when their debut album, Is This It and its singles ‘Last Night’, ‘Hard To Explain’ and ‘Someday’ dropped in 2001. Universally acclaimed, this minimalist rock masterpiece propelled singer Julian Casablancas, guitarists Nick Valensi and Albert Hammond Jr, bassist Nikolai Fraiture and drummer Fabrizio Moretti into the stratosphere. Two decades on, Is This It is still as stunning as ever and a perennial feature on best album lists around the globe.
 

Always on point, the band followed their debut with an onslaught of successful albums including Room on Fire (2003), First Impressions of Earth (2006), Angles (2011), Comedown Machine (2013) and EP, Future Present Past (2016).
 

In 2020 The Strokes returned with The New Abnormal. Produced by legendary producer Rick Rubin and recorded at his Shangri-La Studios in Malibu, their sixth studio album has received rave reviews. Associated Press called it “a superb slice of indie rock, varied, exciting and complex, with elements of glam, straight-down-the-line rock and dreamy pop,” while Under the Radar declared it “the most vital and consistent the band has sounded in over a decade.”  
 

The New Abnormal features tracks ‘Brooklyn Bridge To Chorus’, ‘Bad Decisions’ and ‘At The Door’. The album’s cover artwork is a painting by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Bird on Money.
 

The Strokes Australian performances will come hot off the back of a whirlwind tour of headline festival slots including Corona Capital Guadalajara in Mexico, Primavera Sound Barcelona, Berlin’s Temple of Sounds, TRNSMT in Scotland and England’s Lytham Festival. The five-piece will be well and truly limbered up when they hit our shores!

The Strokes will be joined by the rebel spirit and iconic anthems of pub punk outfit The Chats. When 2017 single ‘Smoko’ became a bona fide viral hit on YouTube, the band were propelled from their Queensland shed to almost overnight renown in all the right circles. Dave Grohl loved it so much he sent it to Josh Homme, who immediately booked the band to support Queens Of The Stone Age in Australia, Iggy Pop did the same when he played Melbourne and now The Strokes can be added to the list. The Chats released their debut album, High Risk Behaviour, in March 2020, debuting at No.5 on the ARIA Albums chart.
 

Sydney rockers The Lazy Eyes are also in for the ride, with their impulse driven riffs and hypnotic drums and bass. Their debut EP saw The Lazy Eyes sell out headline shows, amass a combined 1.5 million streams and receive praise from the BBC’s Matt Wilkinson, Bandcamp, Atwood Magazine, American Songwriter, Monster Children, land at #17 on triple j Unearthed’s Top 50 Most Played Artists of 2020 and many more. Their second release, EP2, follows on this trajectory, cementing the band’s position as a key emerging act in the golden age of Australian psychedelic music.
 

Don’t miss what will be some very special live shows when The Strokes come to town. Presale tickets are available from 12pm local on Monday 08 November - hop to it!

Passengers, it’s been one helluva long layover but it’s finally time to prepare for boarding!

Australia’s favourite high-flyers, Jimmy Lyell and Hugo Gruzman, aka Flight Facilities are preparing for take-off across the country, touring their highly anticipated sophomore album FOREVER throughout March and April 2022. The mammoth tour includes shows in some of the country’s best outdoor venues with dates at Perth’s Red Hill Auditorium, Melbourne’s Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Brisbane’s Riverstage, Hobart City Hall, Bonython Park in Adelaide, Darwin Amphitheatre and a personally curated event ‘Airfields’ in Sydney’s Victoria Park on Saturday 19 March.

Described by the duo as a chronical of where they’ve been, where they are and where they’re going, FOREVER is the culminating result of a playground coloured by experimentation, set for release on 12 November. Drawing from various moments in time and Flight Facilities era-defined sounds, FOREVER is a record that gives as much back to the day-one fans, as it does to Lyell and Gruzman. Based on the outpouring of singles from the album so far, including ‘FOREVER’ featuring BROODS, ‘Move’ featuring DRAMA, ‘The Ghost’ and ‘Lights Up’ featuring Channel Tres, there’s no doubt FOREVER will have you on the dancefloor all summer long and take you sky-high when you catch it live.

Flight Facilities’ first Australian tour since 2018 is set to be a momentous event, with dates spanning the country and a bunch of the duo’s favourite artists joining them as they welcome us back to the dancefloor. Get ready for some sweet relief as the duo reignite the party vibes with one of the largest national tours back in 2022.

In Sydney, where Flight Facilities first spread their wings, Lyell and Gruzman have personally curated a special event, Airfields, to take place at Victoria Park on Saturday 19 March. Airfields is a homage to Flight Facilities home town, a salute to their first fans and a celebration of their musical roots in the fine city of Sydney.
 

“It will have been over two years since we last set foot on an Australian live stage, and it has felt like an eternity. Returning with an event in Sydney, where we first started, felt like the best way to reignite the flame for a live music culture that, while wounded, is alive and deeply important to us. Some of our favourite music memories have been within the crowds of Australian acts, and we wanted to showcase similar experiences, to plant the seed for the next generation of local artists.” Said Lyell and Gruzmen. “With support from Cosmo’s Midnight, Jayda G, CC:DISCO!, Sycco and merci, mercy, we figured the only way to celebrate, after years of being cooped up in a studio, is outdoors in the sun. It seems only fitting that Australian artists should be the ones throwing the first and biggest party of 2022.”
 

Flight Facilities are also giving one lucky winner and a friend the chance to win a trip for two to Airfields, including Business Class flights, 5-star accommodation, transfers to and from the concert and tickets for First Class treatment. To enter simply sign up to the Secret Sounds presale.
 

Flight Facilities started in the Sydney nightclub scene, coming off the back of Bang Gang and the Modular era. Airfields aims to re-create the vibe of the city when the duo first started performing, when Sydney was on the world stage for its music and night scene, something they hope to see again.  Specially and personally curated, the event will feature a selection of Flight Facilities favourite local food and beverage outlets, along with exclusive surprise offerings, festival activations and one stacked lineup of party starting legends.
 

So gather your friends (!) and get ready to rejoice and revel as Airfields lands in the heart of the Harbour City with 8 hours of world-class local and international talent!

It is with a heavy heart that Frontier Touring & Eccles Entertainment (New Zealand) announce the postponement of Lorde’s Solar Power Tour of Australia & New Zealand.

Due to the continuing uncertainty around the current NZ outbreak, and unknown implementation dates of the new traffic light system, we have been faced with the difficult decision to move the tour to February-March 2023 so we can proceed with some surety and fully deliver the shows without risk of last-minute lockdowns.

In order for us to feel confident fulfilling the current dates, Frontier and Eccles would need both countries’ borders to be fully open to both citizens and non-citizens, as the majority of Lorde’s touring band and crew are non-citizens and would currently all require travel exemptions. We would also need assurance that there would be limited or no quarantine in place, as the tour was routed almost a year ago with that expectation. No one could have predicted the current outbreak, and while we understand that systems are moving in the right direction and could well be permissive of an international tour in February, any doubt means that we unfortunately cannot proceed in good faith.

“I was really looking forward to the shows and we were so hopeful we’d be in a different situation right now. It’s such a complicated case because Ella’s entire crew and most of her band are international and we have to take that into consideration. I know Ella is upset about moving the shows, however moving the dates to early 2023 gives everyone the certainty we need.”  Brent Eccles  

“I am beyond devastated to be postponing these shows. Starting the tour in New Zealand was always really important to me, and would have been a huge high. I fought this decision for a long time, but the truth is that touring internationally through a COVID outbreak has a ton of unforeseen moving parts, and I’d much rather play for you when we’re all confident it will go smoothly. I want to apologise wholeheartedly to the fans. I’m so gutted to let you down, but so grateful for your understanding. We’ll rage next year.” Lorde

The reschedule has at least enabled us to add additional shows at previously sold out venues in Lower Hutt, Days Bay (NZ) on Wednesday 22 February, Brisbane, Riverstage on Tuesday 7 March and Perth, Bevoir Ampitheatre on Friday 17 March so that more eager concertgoers will get to experience Lorde’s Solar Power Tour in 2023.

Frontier Members can access their pre-sale for these new shows from Wednesday 17 November, before tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday 19 November.  For all ticketing information, frontiertouring.com/lorde

Tickets for the original performances will be valid for the rescheduled dates without taking further action.  Ticket holders will be contacted directly by the original ticketing agency with details.  Patrons unable to attend new show dates may obtain a full refund.  Refund requests must be submitted prior to Friday 10 December 2021.

GENESIS OWUSU & SYCCO JOIN AS SPECIAL GUESTS
ON ALL AUSTRALIAN DATES

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Laneway Presents, Chugg Entertainment & Frontier Touring wish to advise that Tame Impala are rescheduling their upcoming Australian and New Zealand The Slow Rush Tour from December 2021 to October 2022.

Tame Impala are back on the road in North America this month, performing their very first live shows anywhere in the world after an extensive delay. Their Australian and New Zealand shows are unable to proceed as planned in December 2021, due to ongoing changing local and international border closures and associated Government directives in both countries. 

Tame Impala will now hit our shores for their epic live shows in Spring 2022, kicking off their rescheduled tour at Auckland’s Spark Arena on Saturday 15 October 2022. Limited tickets remain and are on sale now for all 2022 dates.

Current ticketholders are advised to hold onto their tickets – tickets to the December 2021 shows are valid for the corresponding rescheduled October 2022 dates (see below), with no action required. Patrons unable to attend new dates meanwhile may obtain a refund. Refund requests must be submitted prior to Friday 22 October – for AU shows, please follow the steps in the link here. #keepyourtickets

In exciting news, Tame Impala also today announce that rising stars Genesis Owusu and Sycco will join them on all Australian dates in October 2022.

One of Australia’s most exciting emerging talents, Canberra rapper Genesis Owusu is a force to be reckoned with. His debut album Smiling With No Teeth is music in a league of its own, surpassing genre and disrupting boundaries. The record garnered critical praise on release in March 2021, NME calling it a “transcendent conceptual opus”, Rolling Stone touting it as “the making of a music giant” and The Guardian claiming it to be “a freaky, funky marvel of a debut”. Known for his multi-faceted showmanship, Owusu will bring a powerful live performance when he hits the stage at arenas around Australia next year. Listen to Missing Molars here.

Nineteen-year-old First Nations writer/producer Sycco is riding a high following an epic breakout year in 2020. Her hit single ‘Dribble’ came in at #29 in triple j’s Hottest 100 in 2021, and since then she’s eclipsed over 20 million streams, accumulating over 500,000 monthly listeners on Spotify alone. Quickly establishing herself as one of Australia’s most promising and popular new artists, Sycco’s colourful, psychedelic-pop sonics and crystal-clear melodies have gained her global recognition – while her debut EP, Sycco’s First EP, was released to acclaim in July 2021. Back in April, Sycco took on Tame Impala's “Lost In Yesterday” for a cover at the 2021 APRA Music Awards – a track she’s also just released, listen here.

One of Australia’s greatest musical exports, Tame Impala claimed #1 on triple j’s ‘Hottest 100 of the Decade’ countdown with 2015 track ‘The Less I Know The Better’. The band’s acclaimed 2020 album, The Slow Rush, was triple j’s Feature Album on release, with three album tracks featuring on their impressive home concert for NPR’s Tiny Desk series, and stunning renditions of singles ‘Lost In Yesterday’ and ‘Breathe Deeper’ performed live on Jimmy Kimmel Live! In March last year. The band recently performed their first headline show in ages in Chicago, where they threw in a cover of Travis Scott’s ‘SKELETONS’, (which Kevin Parker produced for the rapper’s acclaimed Astroworld album).

Tame Impala, Chugg Entertainment, Frontier Touring and Laneway Presents thank fans for their support and understanding during these unprecedented circumstances.
