With special guest Gordi
Chugg Entertainment and Frontier Touring are excited to welcome back Icelandic favourites, Of Monsters and Men, as the globally-recognised group return to Australia for The Mouse Parade Tour in May 2026. Marking over six years since their last visit to Australia, the band also celebrate their first full-length project in six years, All is Love and Pain in the Mouse Parade.
Of Monsters and Men will kick off their highly-anticipated return with shows at Melbourne’s Palais Theatre on Sunday 17 May, Enmore Theatre, Sydney on Tuesday 19 May, Anita’s Theatre, Thirroul on Wednesday 20 May before a final show at The Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane on Friday 22 May.
Frontier Members can access the presale on Monday 23 February from 11am local time, before tickets go on sale, Tuesday 24 February from 12pm local time. Tickets and tour information via frontiertouring.com/ofmonstersandmen
From Reykjavík to the global stage, Of Monsters and Men (OMAM) first captured the world’s attention with their 2011 debut My Head Is an Animal, transforming from Icelandic indie favourites into a band known and loved worldwide.
Breakout single ‘Little Talks’ became a generational anthem with over a billion Spotify streams. Reaching #2 on the Triple J Hottest 100 in 2012, the track’s success led to a 2013 Saturday Night Live debut. Their follow-up, Beneath the Skin (2015), debuted Top 3 on the Billboard 200 and included a surprise cameo on HBO’s Game of Thrones. Over the past 15 years, OMAM have continuously explored, evolved, and built a world of music defined by growth and imagination - from the cinematic expansiveness of Beneath the Skin to the dreamlike textures of Fever Dream (2019).
After pursuing solo and side projects, the band reunited with All Is Love and Pain in the Mouse Parade, released at the end of 2025 - a tapestry of stories, moments, and conversations, the album explores how love and pain intertwine. Feelings that might seem at odds with each other but co-exist simultaneously and need one another. The album marks a new chapter in a career defined by growth, exploration, and a commitment to making music that reflects who they are today.
“With impactful writing, memorable hooks and stellar instrumentation, this record brings back the same hopeful melancholy that the band has brought since their breakout” - mxdwn mag
“At the heart of this album lies a very simple belief: stories of everyday love and pain are just as important – if not more worthy of attention” - The Indiependent
Marking this monumental return, the band will bring All Is Love and Pain in the Mouse Parade in its entirety to Australia for the first time. Known for their encapsulating live set, fans can also expect to hear some of their most treasured songs from over the last decade.
“On stage, the quintet are a bundle of energetic notes, seizure-inducing lights, charismatic characters and smoked-up vocals that would have you tearing up over their beauty. That is, if the desire to dance to their electrifying tunes don’t get you first.” - Scenestr (on Of Monsters and Men’s last visit to Australia).
Joining OMAM for all Australian dates of The Mouse Parade Tour is Australian indie-pop singer-songwriter, Gordi. An award-winning and beloved Aussie export, known for her emotive vocals and atmospheric indie-pop sound, Gordi gained international attention with her debut EP Clever Disguise (2016) and released her first full-length album, Reservoir (2017), which showcased her introspective songwriting and layered production. Her second album, Our Two Skins (2020), was critically acclaimed and explored themes of identity, distance, and belonging. Kicking off 2026 with the release of her latest single ‘High Line’, Gordi will embark on her own headline dates across Australia, before joining OMAM on their Australian return. Having previously toured with the band on their 2016 Australian visit, these shows promise to be a perfect blend of globally-recognised music, showcasing the artistic growth of both acts over the last decade.
Experience the emotion-driven set and expert musicianship as Of Monsters and Men bring these special live shows to Australia for the first time in six years, with special guest Gordi – The Mouse Parade Tour is not to be missed.

MANCHESTER ALT ROCKERS HIT MELBOURNE, SYDNEY & BRISBANE – MAY 2026
TICKETS ON SALE WEDNESDAY 25 FEBRUARY
‘Hot Milk bound onstage determined to throw the party of their lives… Hot Milk is an emotion, so they say. And when that emotion is life-affirming joy, an hour and a half can really fly’ – Kerrang
Get ready to feel the heat! Frontier Touring are pleased to announce the return of euphoric Manchester alt rock force Hot Milk, performing in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane (their first headline show in QLD) this May.
The incendiary duo of Hannah Mee and Jim Shaw are headed back down, following on from their 2023 Australian debut visit, when the band tore through two huge headline gigs in Sydney and Melbourne and crossed the country as support for rock icons Foo Fighters. Hungry for more, Hot Milk return to our shores after three years bringing an unmissable live show that’ll see fans screaming back every word.
It’s been a busy start to 2026 for Hot Milk, who performed for the very first time in Mumbai, India, at Lollapalooza in January before wrapping up a run of European headline dates earlier this month. The band will then head to Japan, before arriving in Australia in May, with further festival sets at Madrid’s Mad Cool Festival locked in for July.
First meeting in a Manchester bar back in 2016, over the course of three EPs – Are You Feeling Alive? (2019), I JUST WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I’M DEAD (2021) and The King And Queen Of Gasoline (2022) – Hot Milk have escalated from cult favourites to one of the UK’s most vital young rock exports, supporting the likes of Foos and Green Day. Following the release of their debut album A Call To The Void in 2023 and their most recent release Corporation P.O.P in 2025 (both out now via Sony Music Australia/Music For Nations), the band have dominated festival main stages, sold out headline rooms across the UK, Europe and the US, and built a reputation for live performances that are chaotic, cathartic and utterly unforgettable.
Catch Hot Milk kick off their latest Australian tour at Melbourne’s 170 Russell on Wednesday 20 May. The band will then head to Sydney’s Metro Theatre on Thursday 21 May, before wrapping up their latest run at Crowbar Brisbane on Saturday 23 May.
Frontier Members can get early access to tickets via the Members’ presale, which starts Tuesday 24 February (1pm local time) – see website for full information. Tickets go onsale Wednesday 25 February (2pm local time).
Opening the night at all shows is Melbourne’s fiercest alt-rock disruptors Bad/Love. Blending emotional intensity with crushing riffs and cinematic soundscapes, the rockers are known for their raw lyricism and genre-bending sound and have carved a unique lane in Australia’s heavy scene. Bad/Love are unapologetically loud, heartbreakingly honest, and impossible to ignore.
From sneering choruses to life-affirming bravado, headlining London’s iconic KOKO and Roundhouse venues to festival main stage appearances, don’t miss the defiant Hot Milk live on stage when they return to Australia!

LIVE AT THE GARDENS
Live at the Gardens, Melbourne’s much-loved outdoor concert series, will return to the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne this November and December, launching its fifth season with another unmissable program of music under the stars in one of the city’s most iconic settings. Acclaimed UK rockers Wolf Alice lead the first announcement in the series, with the GRAMMY-nominated outfit set for summer headline shows around the country, including this one-night-only performance in Melbourne on Saturday 5 December amid the stunning surrounds of the Gardens.
Currently in Auckland for 2026’s Laneway Festival, following dates in Japan and China, the North London quartet have cemented their status as one of Britain’s most razor-sharp live bands. Widely praised for their commanding stage presence, the last 12 months have marked a defining chapter for Wolf Alice, including three Brit Awards nominations for Album of the Year, Group of the Year and Alternative / Rock Act. Released in August 2025, The Clearing showcases a band at the peak of their powers, a sublime widescreen collection of songs that are bold in ambition, full of heart, and the band’s most refined work yet. Featuring singles Bloom Baby Bloom, The Sofa and White Horses, The Clearing arrived as a moment of crystallisation for one of the UK’s most inventive and emotionally charged bands.
Having made their triumphant return to the global festival circuit with historic sets at Primavera Sound, Radio 1’s Big Weekend and a sunset performance at Glastonbury, Wolf Alice’s live momentum carried into a massive run of sold-out headline dates across North America, Europe, the UK and Ireland, culminating in the biggest shows of the band’s career to date – including a headline performance at London’s O2 Arena.
Tickets for Wolf Alice Live at the Gardens go on sale Wednesday 11 February from Ticketmaster at 11.00am local time, with Live at the Gardens, MG Live and Frontier Members presales beginning Monday 9 February at 11.00am local time.
“A phenomenal band at the peak of their powers” – NME ★★★★★
“Britain’s best rock band of the last decade” – Rolling Stone ★★★★★
“The four-piece have undergone their most fun and complete reinvention yet” – The Guardian ★★★★
After a spectacular debut in 2024, Live at the Gardens has fast become one of Melbourne’s most magical live‑music experiences. A collaboration between MG Live and Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne, it returns for its fourth season this March before lighting up the Observatory Precinct again in November and December. Previous seasons have featured standout international acts like Franz Ferdinand, Groove Armada, Róisín Murphy and Lake Street Dive, alongside Australian favourites including The Living End, The Presets, Chet Faker, Matt Corby, Tash Sultana, Xavier Rudd, Sarah Blasko, Vika & Linda and more.
PRAISE FOR LIVE AT THE GARDENS
“Any event that can be enjoyed under the stars is a welcome addition to the summer calendar.” – The Music
“Live at the Gardens teased what it’s like to be in Melbourne for a summer of music, nature and culture.” – Arts Hub

“One of the most beautiful places on earth.” – Alex Kapranos, Franz Ferdinand
Set against the breathtaking beauty of the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne in the heart of the city, this will be an unforgettable night of live music under the stars, featuring a must-see performance from Wolf Alice, with more exciting Live at the Gardens announcements coming soon.

About Wolf Alice…
Wolf Alice have come a long way since the North London quartet first emerged in 2013 as a young band holding a mirror up to their own emerging generation. Today, they stand as one of the most important and consistently acclaimed British bands of the past decade. Their fourth album The Clearing finds Wolf Alice at the peak of their powers — a confident, emotionally rich record that topped the UK Albums Chart on release last summer and since earned them a spot on the shortlist for the 2025 Mercury Prize, marking an extraordinary four nominations across their four-album career. Following the Grammy-nominated My Love Is Cool, the Mercury Prize-winning Visions Of A Life and the UK Number 1, BRIT Award-winning Blue Weekend, The Clearing signals a band who have transcended the trend cycle to arrive at a collection of songs that is truly timeless.
Written in Seven Sisters and recorded in Los Angeles with Grammy-winning producer Greg Kurstin, The Clearing captures a moment of clarity, peace and hard-won self-knowledge, delivered with the ambition and melodic authority that have become synonymous with Wolf Alice. Since its release, the band have celebrated the album with their most ambitious global tour to date, playing landmark festival sets at Glastonbury and Radio 1’s Big Weekend before taking to some of the biggest stages of their career across North America, Europe, the UK and Ireland, and most recently Asia. Entering 2026, Wolf Alice have been recognised with BRIT Award nominations for Best British Group, Album of the Year and Alternative Rock, cementing their status as a generational band still growing, evolving and pushing forward together.

Biffy Clyro have announced they’re returning to Australia for the first time in 8 years. Headed to Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane in April 2026, the Scottish trio will be playing gems from their triple-platinum discography including their new album Futique.
Known for songs like “Many Of Horror” and “Bubbles”, Biffy Clyro have secured their spot as one of the UK’s most successful rock bands. Their latest album Futique, released in September, received widespread critical acclaim. Praised by NME as “a vulnerable yet life-affirming blast”, the release saw Biffy Clyro climb to the top of the UK album charts for the fourth time.
Biffy Clyro started out in the Glasgow club scene, accumulating loyal fans with their grunge, hardcore and prog rock-influenced sound. 2009's Only Revolutions saw the band break through to an international audience, going platinum in 2010 and earning a Mercury Music Prize nomination. The band have experimented with various genres across their ten-album discography, evolving from their math rock roots to an arena-ready rock sound.
Renowned for their live performances, Biffy Clyro have performed numerous headline sets at the legendary festivals like Reading & Leeds, Download, TRNSMT and Isle of Wight. With their live show praised by Kerrang! as “a masterclass in joy and professionalism, with every element finely tuned”, Biffy Clyro were recently nominated by Rolling Stone for The Live Act category at this year’s awards. No stranger to an awards ceremony, the band have received four NME Awards, five Kerrang! Awards, two Q Awards, a BAFTA and three BRIT nominations over the course of their career.
Biffy Clyro’s 2026 tour offers Australian audiences the chance to see the rock legends at the top of their game.

Australia, get hyped! German electronicore titans ELECTRIC CALLBOY are thrilled to announce their hotly-anticipated return down under in 2026, with a massive arena headline run locked in next September.
Now in command of six studio albums, including most recently the gold-certified 2022 outing Tekkno, over 3 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone and a horde of smash singles like RATATATA featuring BABYMETAL, We Got the Moves and Still Waiting.
And after drawing a crowd that could barely be contained and had security being deployed from every corner of the site at Good Things Festival in 2022, the band levelled up to the main stage in 2024, showcasing their unwavering energy that eternally leaves you wanting more. The band performed the penultimate spot on the festival and produced one of the most electrifying sets in the festival’s history.
A cross-cultural cavalcade of theatricality, cinematic wizardry and genre-defiance, this unforgettable tour will commence on Friday 4 September in Perth before heading to Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, with the tour also marking ELECTRIC CALLBOY's largest Australian headline shows since their entirely sold out 2023 down under run.
A sonic hurricane and permanent heaving party, churning with 90s pop synths, driving alternative rock, explosive metalcore and a modern spin, ELECTRIC CALLBOY have become a bona fide global phenomenon. Between their insatiable live shows and their larger-than-life sonic output, ELECTRIC CALLBOY first emerged back in 2010, before pivoting into a dazzling new era via the release of their gold-certified 2020 single Hypa Hypa. Now in command of six studio albums, including most recently the gold-certified 2022 outing Tekkno, over 3 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone, and a horde of smash singles like RATATATA featuring BABYMETAL, We Got the Moves and Still Waiting, ELECTRIC CALLBOY have always seemed destined to exceed global domination, relentlessly reaching beyond the stratosphere with each new chapter.
In 2023, ELECTRIC CALLBOY sold out the majority of their world tour, which also included their debut headline run in Australia; an entirely sold out affair with Scenestr declaring after the Brisbane leg: "An EC live show is an intoxicating blend of barraging rock & roll, techno beats and crushing metalcore that will at worst put a smile on your dial, and at best have you dressing up, testing out your best metal screams and melodious refrains while moshing like a wild beast". And after drawing a crowd that could barely be contained on Stage 4 at Good Things Festival in 2022, the band levelled up to the main stage in 2024, showcasing their main character energy as well as their unwavering energy that eternally leaves you wanting more.
Don't miss out on one of the biggest parties on the heavy music calendar in 2026 - tickets will absolutely not last long!

The World Tour has been a massive undertaking, covering more than 60 dates across North America, Europe, UK and Latin America as it rolls out across the year.
Pierce The Veil recently released a deluxe version of their hugely successful, chart-topping album, The Jaws of Life. Released in 2023 the LP debuted at #14 on the Billboard Top 200, #2 on the Alternative Chart, and claimed the #1 spot on the Top Hard Rock Albums Chart - the record’s singles have amassed over 140 million streams to date.
Pierce The Veil have pulled off something truly unique at this stage in their career: they’ve been able to reinvent themselves without abandoning their past—a fact that isn’t lost on their members. “The Jaws Of Life kicked off a new way of thinking for our band in the sense of trusting when things are not working for you,” Fuentes says, explaining that the band changed producers, recording environments and drummers in the process of making the album. “The experience was so fulfilling and exciting that it made us reevaluate every part of our career—what we’re doing, how we’re doing it—and start chasing that feeling again by trying new things, pushing ourselves into uncomfortable territory, and seeing where it takes us.”

ABOUT PIERCE THE VEIL
Pierce The Veil may have started out in 2006 as a scrappy post-hardcore band, but these days the San Diego act are practically a household name. Over the course of five full-length albums, the trio of Vic Fuentes (vocals, guitar), Tony Perry (guitar), Jaime Preciado (bass), have transcended musical subgenres to become an innovative rock act who have as much in common with Muse as they do My Chemical Romance. Their 2023 album The Jaws Of Life contained the #1 Alternative Radio hit “Emergency Contact” and Pierce The Veil have garnered 2 billion global streams, over 500 million YouTube views and won stadium crowds over as the main support for Blink-182 on the One More Time… Tour. “We are finding a balance between embracing the emo roots that got us here and finding the opportunity to explore new things like playing Lollapalooza,” Fuentes explains. “I think it’s really about having new experiences because that’s what keeps things fun and exciting.”
That spirit of experimentation is exemplified on The Jaws Of Life, an album that showcases the fact that the band isn’t afraid to take chances when it comes to their creative decisions. “I think The Jaws Of Life was just a natural progression of exploring other influences we’ve always had but never really expressed,” says Fuentes “I grew up in the nineties playing songs by Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden, so I’ve always had that inside me and I think we finally let some of that out on this record and had some fun with that.” From the groove-driven neo-grunge sound of “Pass The Nirvana” to the melodic powerhouse “Flawless Execution,” The Jaws Of LIfe sees Pierce The Veil seamlessly integrate their adolescent influences into the band’s sound, a fact that is made even more surreal by the fact that Third Eye Blind’s Brad Hargreaves plays drums on the album.
The band’s Radiohead cover also seemed to fit with the expansive scope of The Jaws Of Life. “‘Karma Police’ is one of my favorite songs and during COVID, I tried to learn it on piano because I love the chords,” Fuentes says. “ “We had the chance to perform on a show in Australia called Like A Version, where you play one of your own songs and a cover, so we put something together specifically for that." Admittedly covering Radiohead is an ambitious proposition, but Pierce The Veil’s version of the song reimagines the instrumentation into a heavier landscape without losing any of the subtle musical motifs of the original. “From the second we listened to it in the recording booth in Australia, we knew it was more than a one-time thing, so we did a radio campaign for it,” he adds. “The song came about in a really organic way, which made it a really fun experience.”
While some bands seem to get more rigid as they age, the members of Pierce The Veil seem to connect with each other more with each passing musical milestone, which include selling out Madison Square Garden in New York City and three nights at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles. “I think the chemistry we had from day one is still going strong, you know? We just got lucky and found a good group of people,” Fuentes responds when asked about the current dynamic of Pierce The Veil. “The challenge is you have to adapt with each other as we become different people and luckily we’ve grown closer throughout the years as we get to know each other on deeper levels.” Another important initiative for the band is the Living The Dream Foundation, a non-profit that supports music fans with terminal or life-threatening illnesses, of which Fuentes is the CEO and Co-Chairman. “I always looked up to bands who stood for something when I was growing up and I always wanted to be one of those bands, so I was happy we found a cause that was worth it for us.”
