GRETA VAN FLEET Announce Second Brisbane Date Due To Demand As Part Of Their STARCATCHER WORLD TOUR

Grammy Award Winning U.S. Rock act GRETA VAN FLEET are set to make their highly anticipated return to Australian and New Zealand shores this August for the first time since 2019. Having sold out their Brisbane Fortitude Music Hall show on August 21st, they will now play a second show at the Brisbane venue on August 22nd before heading to Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion on August 24th and the Margaret Court Arena in Melbourne on August 27th before jumping over the ditch to Auckland to play Spark Arena on August 30th.

Tickets for the Thursday 22 August Fortitude Music Hall show in Brisbane go on sale on Wednesday June 19 at 12pm.

Artist Fan Club pre-sale begins Tuesday June 18 at 9am.

My Live Nation members can secure tickets first during the exclusive pre-sale beginning Tuesday 18 June at 10am.

Australia and New Zealand are directly in the firing line of the hugely successful Starcatcher World Tour! The tour, produced by Live Nation, saw the band hit the iconic Madison Square Garden in New York, The Forum in Los Angeles as well as London’s OVO Arena Wembley. The tour has seen them roll through the U.S., Europe and U.K. before heading back to the U.S. then on to the festival scene in Europe and Japan before landing in Australia.

The Frankenmuth, Michigan natives formed in 2012, consisting of brothers – vocalist Josh Kiszka, guitarist Jake Kiszka and bassist/keyboardist Sam Kiszka – who were then joined by drummer Danny Wagner. The band announced their arrival on the scene in a massive way in 2017 with their EP From The Fires, which won Best Rock Album at the 61st Grammy Awards.

Their meteoric rise continued with the release oftheir critically acclaimed sophomore album The Battle at Garden’s Gate which was released in 2021 and debuted at #1 Billboard Rock Album, #1 Billboard Hard Rock Album, #1 Billboard Vinyl Album, #2 Billboard Top Album Sales and in the Top 10 on the Billboard 200. 2023’s Starcatcher album also crashed into the Billboard Top 200 chart at #8 which has seen GRETA VAN FLEET entrenched as a fully-fledged Rock Powerhouse!

Starcatcher was written and recorded by the band – alongside Grammy-winning producer Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile). Recorded at the legendary RCA Studios in Nashville, the band utilized the large recording room to capture the pure energy of their world-renowned live performances.

Throughout the ten-song collection the band explores the duality of fantasy versus reality and the contrast between light and darkness. “We had this idea that we wanted to tell these stories to build a universe,” says Danny Wagner. “We wanted to introduce characters and motifs and these ideas that would come about here and there throughout our careers through this world.”

The band took multiple concepts from critically acclaimed sophomore album The Battle at Garden’s Gate and brought them into Starcatcher, although Sam Kiszka’s take on the new record’s big ideas hint instead at new beginnings. “When I imagine the world of Starcatcher, I think of the cosmos,” he says. “It makes me ask a lot of questions, like ‘Where did we come from?’ or ‘What are we doing here?’ But it’s also questions like, ‘What is this consciousness that we have, and where did it come from?’”

With Starcatcher the band has definitely managed to capture their live energy in the recording studio.

They have performed across multiple continents, sold over 3.5 million records, one million tickets worldwide and amassed well over 2 billion streams! They have performed on late night television shows such as “Saturday Night Live,” “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” and “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” whilst dazzling live audiences at major festivals such as Lollapalooza, Coachella, Pinkpop and Rock Werchter.

Boston Manor Announce Australian Headline Shows This August

Today, British rock band BOSTON MANOR announces a run of headline shows while they are in Australia as supports on the Trophy Eyes’ August tour.

Boston Manor’s headline shows will see them stopping off in Newcastle at King Street on August 25, The Baso in Canberra on August 27, and wrapping up in Geelong at The Barwon Club on August 29.

Boston Manor will be joined for all three dates by the dynamic Brisbane-based four-piece SUNBLEACHED.

Tickets for all shows go on sale 10am local time on Friday 14 June.

My Live Nation members can secure tickets during the exclusive pre-sale beginning Thursday 13 June at 10am local and concluding on Friday 14 June at 9am.

For complete tour and ticket information, visit: livenation.com.au

Recently, Boston Manor returned with some brand-new music for 2024, dropping the new single ‘Container’ back in February. Full of thrust and intention, ‘Container’ is rich with depth and groove, offering an early signpost to where their sound is taking them next: from parallel universes to personal growth, vivid dreamscapes to raw grief. Change is a colour that Boston Manor wear well, and ‘Container’ signals the first step in a bold and inspiring new journey.

Following up ‘Container’ with two more singles, ‘Sliding Doors’ and ‘HEAT ME UP’, Boston Manor has already proved that 2024 is going to be the most exciting year yet for the UK-based 5-piece.

Boston Manor have been making waves in the alt rock scene since the release of their 2022 album Datura. A band known for using their music to make bigger statements, they’ve always been a group with something to say, but these new songs see them looking inwards to harness the uplifting power of their music and the communion it creates.

Sunbleached is a dynamic rock four-piece from Brisbane, known for their visceral hard hitting performances and stirring alternative rock sound. According to BLUNT Magazine “The future of post-hardcore is in good hands, so long as Brisbane trailblazers Sunbleached are the ones holding it.”

Their latest EP, “Delicate Places We Hide”, has received acclaim both nationally and internationally, and showcases the band’s ability to embrace the spirit of the 90s but avoids drowning in a sea of nostalgia, resulting in a fresh and captivating sound that sets them apart from the pack.

About BLAKE ROSE:

As a dynamic vocalist, deft multi-instrumentalist, and dexterous producer, Blake Rose not only dives in and out of different sonic wavelengths, but he also attunes to experiences and emotions. Against a backdrop of glistening alternative atmospheres, hummable pop choruses, and immersive electric guitar-laden soundscapes, he lyrically places himself inside of identifiable moments and unfiltered conversations unlocked by a keen sense of empathy. You’ll practically hear his memories and anecdotes unfold in real-time as he ponders the nature of nostalgia, infatuation, struggle, mental health, and family.

Emerging in 2018 out of Perth, Australia, he initially gained traction with “Hotel Room,” “Best of Me,” and “Lady” before 2020’s “Gone” exploded to the tune of 65 million Spotify streams. “Lost” picked up over 100 million streams as well. Meanwhile, his A World Gone By EP arrived to widespread critical acclaim. FLOOD hailed it as “a body of work that’s easy to get lost in,” while V Man dubbed him an “Artist to Watch” and FLAUNT attested, “Blake Rose is your new favorite artist.” He notably sold out headline gigs on both coasts of North America in addition to sharing stages with Noah Kahan, Ashe, Boys Like Girls, girl in red, Mimi Webb, Dean Lewis, Lauren Spencer Smith and many others on the road.

In 2023, the Australia-born and Los Angeles-based artist chronicled a series of realizations and revelations on his second EP, You’ll Get It When You’re Older, making his US Television debut, performing the song “Dizzy” from the EP on CBS’ The Late Late Show with James Corden. Earlier this year, Rose released his 3rd EP – Suddenly Okay, out via AWAL Recordings. Written and co-produced entirely by Blake Rose, the four-track collection offers listeners a tantalising and refreshing glimpse of what’s to come from one of Australia’s most exciting musical exports in 2024.

Olivia Rodrigo announces her first-ever run of Asia and Australia dates on critically acclaimed GUTS World Tour

Multi-platinum, three-time Grammy award-winning artist Olivia Rodrigo announced her first-ever run of shows in Asia and Australia, adding 9 international dates to her highly celebrated GUTS world tour. Produced by Live Nation, the tour now includes a massive 82 shows globally, with the new dates kicking off Monday, September 16 in Bangkok, Thailand and continuing through Seoul, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Singapore, Melbourne, and Sydney, wrapping up on Friday, October 19 at Qudos Bank Arena. Rodrigo also teased on social media, “Stay tuned, Manila!”

The GUTS world tour kicked off on February 23, 2024 in Greater Palm Springs, CA to rave reviews. Rolling Stone observed, “Rodrigo cemented her position in pop culture as a generation-defining artist. As a rockstar. And as an energy-filled idol that is only just beginning her career.” The Los Angeles Times praised the “thrilling tour opener” while Variety noted, “It’s a rock ‘n’ roll show, by the way — maybe the best rock tour we’ll get all year, even if the season is young.”

Olivia’s tour supports her second studio album, GUTS, which was released September 8 via Geffen Records to critical acclaim, landing her six GRAMMY-award nominations including Album of the Year and Song of the Year. Following the resounding success of her inaugural 2022 tour, The SOUR Tour, the GUTS world tour is Olivia’s first arena tour to date, taking her to renowned venues worldwide such as Madison Square Garden, Kia Forum, Sportpaleis, The O2, and more.

TICKETS: Tickets for the newly added Asia + Australia dates on the GUTS world tour will be available starting with the American Express® presale in select markets. On-sale start dates + times vary by market, check local listings for more information.

PRESALE: American Express® Card Members in Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Melbourne, and Sydney can purchase tickets before the general public (while supplies last) – this is one of the many entertainment benefits American Express Card Members can access.

SILVER STAR TICKETS: Olivia Rodrigo has introduced Silver Star Tickets on the GUTS world tour, making a limited number of $20 USD plus taxes and fees (or the local currency equivalent) tickets available for all shows. Olivia has launched this program to make it as easy and affordable as possible for her fans to make it out to her shows. Silver Star Tickets must be purchased in pairs with a limit of 2 per purchaser. These seats will be located next to each other and the seat locations will be revealed the day of show when picked up at the venue box office. Ticket locations within the venue will include limited view seats, lower and upper level seating, as well as the floor.

Silver Star Tickets will be available at a later date.

OLIVIA RODRIGO’S FUND 4 GOOD: In conjunction with the GUTS world tour, Olivia Rodrigo has launched Olivia Rodrigo’s Fund 4 Good, a global initiative committed to building an equitable and just future for all women and girls through direct support of community based non-profits that champion girls’ education, support reproductive rights and prevent gender-based violence. A portion of Olivia’s proceeds from ticket sales will go to Olivia Rodrigo’s Fund 4 Good.

Critical Acclaim for the GUTS world tour:

“This was true of her performance as well, which brought the perfection and order of musical theater to the pop-punk and piano balladry that her songs toggle between.” – The New York Times

“Rodrigo is a natural at commanding an arena stage, and that’s no small feat, considering it’s her first time doing it.” – Miami New Times

“Rodrigo strutted around the U-shaped stage with the confidence of a pop pro, complete with her standout vocals that didn’t waver throughout the full hour-and-a-half performance.” – Billboard

“It’s a rock ‘n’ roll show, by the way — maybe the best rock tour we’ll get all year, even if the season is young.” – Variety

“Olivia Rodrigo is the fastest-rising rock ‘n’ roll sensation of her generation” – Arizona Republic

“Olivia Rodrigo has always been better than ‘great for her age.’ The Guts Tour proves it.” – USA Today

About Olivia Rodrigo

After shattering records with her chart-topping, 4x Platinum debut album SOUR – the fastest album in history to have all of its songs certified RIAA Platinum or higher – Olivia Rodrigo made a monumental return with her sophomore album GUTS, revealing newly heightened sophistication as a vocalist and lyricist. Produced by and co-written with Daniel Nigro (her main creative partner on SOUR), each song intensifies the emotional honesty that’s always imbued her work, leading The New York Times to hail her as “a songwriter of rather astonishing purity.”

Praised as an “instant classic” by Rolling Stone, GUTS debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, coinciding with lead single “vampire” returning to the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 and Rodrigo’s No. 1 ranking on the Artist 100, thereby giving her a chart triple. Rodrigo is the first female artist in nearly a decade to debut her first two albums atop the Billboard 200 and the youngest artist in Hot 100 history to debut three hits at No. 1 (“vampire” and SOUR’s “drivers license” and “good 4 u”). GUTS’ remaining 11 tracks charted in the top 40 of the Hot 100. GUTS topped the album charts in over 13 countries, including the UK.

The album, which appeared on more than 30 Best of 2023 lists, including The New York Times, Rolling Stone, NPR and Pitchfork, received GRAMMY® nominations for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album while “vampire” received three nods andballad of a homeschooled girl” was nominated for Best Rock Song. Before the year ended, Rodrigo achieved another career milestone with the release of her first contribution to a film soundtrack: “Can’t Catch Me Now” from The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes (Music From & Inspired By).The song won a 2023 Hollywood Music In Media Award for SciFi/Fantasy Film, a 2024 SCL Award for “Outstanding Original Song For A Dramatic Or Documentary Visual Media Production” and was shortlisted for the 2024 Oscars.

Shortly after the GUTS tour launched, Olivia released GUTS (spilled) – the deluxe edition of her sophomore album, which contains five additional songs, including “obsessed,” a highlight of her live show and a brand-new song “so american,” recorded following the release of GUTS.

Good Neighbours Announce Debut Australia Shows For This June

British viral wunderkinds Good Neighbours today announce their debut Australian shows this June.

The duo kick off their tour at Sydney’s Oxford Art Factory on Tuesday June 25 before heading to Brisbane’s Outpost on Thursday June 27 and concluding at Melbourne’s Corner Hotel on Saturday June 29.

Tickets for all shows go on sale 10am this Friday 10th May.

For complete tour and ticket information visit livenation.com.au.

Good Neighbours AKA Scott and Oli leapt onto the global scene from their East London studio in January of this year with debut single and viral sensation Home – a tender yet triumphant track that has since racked up over 160 million streams, peaked at number 21 in the ARIA Singles Chart and received extensive radio play across the country. The boys have since followed up with the equally infectious Keep It Up, with plenty more releases on the horizon.

A band born out of small towns and spare time, Good Neighbours first started out of Scott and Oli’s desire to make something positive and unpolished in a music scene where everything felt mellow and intimate. Throughout 2023, they began making music for the love of it with an urge to rekindle early 2000’s sounds of the likes of Passion Pit and MGMT, a nod to classic songwriting and raucous production and inspiration from A24, friendship, and a cinematic approach to making music.

Good Neighbours are wasting no time capturing the world’s attention – don’t miss their exciting debut shows down under.

Tickets go on sale at 12pm Thursday May 9.

Named “R&B’s next big thing” by V Magazine, Indianapolis-raised, Los Angeles-based Maeta first introduced her soulful, intimate style to the world in 2019 with the release of her debut EP, Do Not Disturb. The Kaytranada-produced Teen Scene featuring Buddy appeared a few months later, and soon garnered millions of streams. Maeta then followed up with Toxic, executive-produced by Skrillex, and signed with Roc Nation, returning a month later with the retro soul-infused Bitch Don’t Be Mad from her sophomore EP Habits.

Maeta followed up with the When I Hear Your Name EP in June 2023, her powerful vocals pairing alongside appearances from the likes of Lucky Daye, Ty Dolla $ign and The Free Nationals, with production from Pharrell and Kaytranada. A raw and sensual exploration of intoxicating lust, over 13 songs, Maeta envelops you into a whirlwind of emotions.

Maeta’s next EP “Endless Nights” produced by Kaytranada is slated for release on June 21, 2024.

As Maeta puts it: “I have a feeling it’s gonna be an amazing year.” This is one debut tour you don’t want to miss.

Tasmanian best mates Luca Brasi are back with their sixth studio album; one that thrums with renewed energy and verve; a fiery blast from a band refreshed, renewed, and better than ever. It’s often said that there’s something magical about Tasmania. And true, too, is that there’s something magical about Luca Brasi. They’re a marvel of an act – always humble, not an ego among them, as comfortable in amongst the crowd as they are in front of it.

This band of mates, formed in the pristine yet rugged surrounds of Tasmania’s oft unforgiving east coast, has long been on a journey. From 2011’s raucous Extended Family debut that grabbed everyone by the scruff and hauled them into a party that was already well underway, to 2021’s Everything Is Tenuous, that displayed a more matured, slowed down reflection on love, growing up, and getting older.

And now with The World Don’t Owe You Anything, the group’s sixth studio album, Luca Brasi gives us everything they’ve got. The riffs are desperate, fast, and are aching to be heard. The songwriting takes us on a journey of introspection and self-reflection and throws it up against a bombastic, urgent backing track that harkens back to the group’s salad days. The result is a collection of songs that beg the sky-flung fists and beer showers of bandrooms across the country to come with it.

Special guests on the tour are Spanish Love Songs. Despite their name, the LA-formed indie-punk band aren’t known for forays into the uplifting. Since 2013, the quintet have instead made hay on the backs of a string of beloved albums –2015’s Giant Sings The Blues, 2018’s Schmaltz and 2020’s Brave Faces Everyone – lauded by critics and fans alike for their richly personal, no-holds-barred lyricism awash in existential dead, hyper-personal cultural ruminations and attempts to answer life’s big questions. Their most recent album release NO JOY find the band grappling with the messiness of what it means to be alive in the modern age – unsure of the answers themselves but confident that together, we can all come a little closer to the solutions.

Don’t miss Luca Brasi on their national tour with special guest Spanish Love Songs this May!
