THE MISSION RETURN TO AUSTRALIA FOR 30TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR

80s UK bad boys The Mission are heading downunder for their 30th Anniversary tour this November, the first time they’ve set foot in Australia since 1990.

Known as the kings of excess, the band’s memory of their last trip is hazy as they embraced the rock n roll lifestyle while the world fell in love with goth rock gems like Wasteland, Stay With Me and Butterfly on a Wheel.

“30 bloody years! Who would’ve thought it, eh?” said vocalist Wayne Hussey. “As we were well renowned for our, ahem, lifestyle choices, shall we say, I remember Melody Maker ran an office pool betting which member of The Mission would die first. I seem to remember Mick was the favourite with yours truly running a close 2nd. Well, we’re still here, alive and well and still going strong.”

With over 4 million albums sold worldwide over nine albums, The Mission’s status as one of the world’s cult rock acts has never been questioned, winning countless accolades and inspiring both lurid media stories and a fanatical following as they toured constantly. Highlights such as seven consecutive sold out shows at the Astoria Theatre in London (a house record never beaten), headlining the famous Reading Festival twice, and also playing with U2, The Cure and Robert Plant all make the bands lengthy list of accolades.

Despite trips to countries as far flung as Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Mexico, USA, Peru, Portugal, Hungary, South Africa, Greece (Recon 2000 tour), this will be only the band’s second trip to Australia.

“(In 1990) Australia fell in the middle of a year-long tour and by that time the band were hardly talking to each other, I was using white powders fairly heavily, and I was as were the band, quite frankly, in a bit of a mess,” said Hussey. “Now I’m healthier both physically and spiritually and a lot of water has passed under the bridge since then. Hence I am really looking forward to returning and experiencing Australia as if it was my first time. And with a reasonable coherency.”

Black Stone Cherry

Hard Rock Heroes BLACK STONE CHERRY have had a dynamite year. They’ve dropped their latest record KENTUCKY worldwide, they’ve toured Australia with Steel Panther and they have done the biggest show in the world, Wembley Arena earlier in 2016.

The Good ol’ boys from Kentucky, USA are today announcing their April 2017 Australian tour, via promoters MJR Presents. The tour will go on fan pre-sale 20th September 2016 and on general sale 21st September at mjrpresents.com.

The tour takes in amazing, iconic and vibing venues in Brisbane’s The Triffid, Sydney’s The Factory Theatre, Melbourne’s Corner Hotel and Perth’s The Capitol.

Black Stone Cherry will be arriving in Australia hot on the heels of their tour down under earlier this year with Steel Panther, where they wowed full houses early on. That was the band’s maiden voyage down under and they are returning ASAP to cement their place in Australian audiences’ hearts.

Australian crowd-favourites blues-rock legends CHASE THE SUN are joining the tour as special guest support – and they themselves will have a new album out in time for this good-times, rough-and-tumble rock tour.

Levellers

 

LEVELLERS ANNOUNCE DATES IN AUSTRALIA IN OCT 2016

PERFORMING Levelling The Land LIVE

Levelling The Land features the hit singles One Way, 15 Years and Far From Home plus The Game, Liberty Song, Sell Out, Another Man’s Cause, Riverflow and Boatman.

The era-defining album will be performed in its entirety, followed by an extended encore of live favourites from the Levellers extensive back catalogue.

Levellers have been called a lot conflicting of things over their 27-year history. However, the closest thing to a consensus surrounding the seminal British folk-punk band is that their platinum-selling 1991 album Levelling The Land is an absolute classic. In one fell swoop it propelled a group of disenfranchised misfits from playing pubs in Brighton to headlining Glastonbury Festival, and in the process becoming ‘The most popular band in Britain’ (NME).

During the summer of 1991 Levelling The Land redefined the UK’s musical landscape. Counter-culture became culture, the disenfranchised found a voice, and not a single pub, club, campfire or festival anywhere in Europe failed to reverberate with the refrains of this iconic album. Levellers provided the soundtrack for a society fed up with the twin evils of Thatcherite politics, and the post-80’s, pre-grunge musical wasteland.

Then as now, Levellers may have been hated, but they were also adored. More importantly, this album caused a reaction in everyone who heard it. Musically and lyrically it absolutely forbade ambivalence. It is exactly this quality which explains that why, 2 decades later, when all but the era’s very best music has faded from memory, each and every track has stood the test of time.

From The Jam -2016

Bruce Foxton with From The Jam

Australian Tour September 2016

Earlybird tickets available for $45 + booking fee. Available until Tuesday 8th December.

 

From The Jam, featuring former The Jam bassist Bruce Foxton and Russell Hastings return to Australia, September 2016 after multiple sell-out shows on their last tour in March 2015. Tickets for the tour go on sale 9am from Oztix, Ticketek and The Venue Collective on Wed 2nd Dec.

The Jam exploded onto the punk scene in 1977 delivering their ferocious mission statement – debut single ‘In The City’. With a catalogue that includes 18 UK Top 40 singles The Jam became the sound of The British youth and one of the greatest and biggest selling bands in British history. In 2000, Q magazine placed The Jam’s third album ‘All Mod Cons’ at Number 50 in its list of the 100 Greatest British Albums Ever.

From The Jam have gained a reputation for the kind of incendiary ‘live’ performances that sealed the reputation of The Jam all those years ago. Audiences can expect to hear classic The Jam hits such as Down In The Tube Station At Midnight, Going Underground, Town Called Malice and The Modern World as well as some live favourites and songs from Bruce’s solo career.

OCEAN COLOUR SCENE – The Moseley Shoals Tour Australia 2016

Ocean Colour Scene are heading to our shores for their first ever Australian tour in the 25 year history of the band.

The Ocean Colour Scene story is already the stuff of legend; a rip-roaring rock’n’folk odyssey set to a backdrop of pop culture at its very best.

In their 25 year existence Ocean Colour Scene have notched up many memorable moments commencing with 1996’s smash hit The Riverboat Song and in the decades that followed releasing ten albums, including the top-selling, Moseley Shoals – ‘96, Marchin’ Already – ‘97 and One From The Modern – ’99.

From their days as Breton-shirt wearing disciples of The Stone Roses to transforming into million-selling Britpop stars (Marchin’ Already bumped Oasis’ What’s the Story from the top spot in 1997) and also becoming long-term touring allies with Paul Weller, their story is inseparable from the greats of modern British rock.

February 2016 will see Ocean Colour Scene performing The Moseley Shoals Tour where they will perform the album from start to finish, along with their other greatest hits.

In 2015 UK indie-rock stalwarts The Charlatans released their twelfth album MODERN NATURE on BMG Chrysalis and under exclusive licenses through Cooking Vinyl in Australia.

Following up from the release we are excited to announce that THE CHARLATANS – Tim Burgess, Mark Collins, Martin Blunt and Tony Rogers will be touring in Australia in March 2016.

The band went into their studio Big Mushroom in January 2014 and as Tim recalls “We were aching for the summer when we wrote it. It was freezing and we were trying to write songs that made us happy. “

 The result is Modern Nature. Featuring eleven new tracks, the album was produced by The Charlatans and Jim Spencer and mixed by Craig Silvey (Arcade Fire, Portishead). The album features a cacophony of contributors from their three temporary drummers – Pete Salisbury of The Verve, Stephen Morris of New Order and Gabriel Gurnsey of DFA’s avant-disco group Factory Floor, to Kate Bushs’ backing singers Melanie Marshall and Sandra Marvin, strings by Sean O’ Hagan and brass courtesy of Dexys’ Big Jim Paterson. Q have already described the album as “one the finest of their career.”

The tracklisting for the album is as follows; Talking In Tones/So Oh/Come Home Baby/Keep Enough/Tall Grass/Emilie/Let The Good Times Be Never Ending/Need You To Know/Lean In/Trouble Understanding/Lot To Say

The live shows in March will be The Charlatans’ first Australian tour since 2010.

The Stranglers

Seminal stars of the 70s/80s Brit-punk movement THE STRANGLERS are making their way to Australia in 2016, celebrating over forty years raising hell with hits like Golden Brown, Always the Sun and Skin Deep.

Winding around Australia to all mainland capitals, The Stranglers will play hits and much loved tracks from their extensive back catalogue,from 1977’s acclaimed debut ‘ Rattus Norvegicus through to 2012’s return to form ‘Giants’.

Forming in 1974 in small-town England, The Stranglers are now revered as one of the most exciting, credible and influential bands to have emerged from the British new wave scene. They are as essential today as at any time in their lengthy career. The band revelled in their harnessing of absurdity, making a habit of wrong-footing both supporters and haters with stunts, antics and music that made their radio success even more incredible.

The tour graces some of Australia’s best stages including The Metro (Sydney), The Corner (Melbourne) and The Tivoli (Brisbane), giving fans the opportunity to get up close and personal with one of the world’s most influential music acts.

Memory Lane

MEMORY LANE

SUNDAY OCTOBER 18, 2015

ALL AGES – 12.00 Noon – 7PM

SOME MEMORIES WILL NEVER FADE

Port Macquarie’s MEMORY LANE Festival has dropped an impressive musical lineup featuring San Cisco, Stonefield, Patrick James and Zefereli, together with a handful of amazing local acts including Bear in a Man Suit, Plebeian Groove andWithernecks.

Promoter and Director of MJR Presents, Scott Mesiti says “I’ve had my eye on this laneway for about 5 years, I just think it’s a cool space and really think the towns youth could do with their own event. Every time we put a venue show on we get asked by under 18’s if they can come so we know there are kids out there that really want to see live music. Unfortunately they can’t attend those gigs due to licensing laws so we thought we’d throw a Melbourne style laneway party with some great indie acts.”

Headliners San Cisco released their debut self-titled album to international acclaim in 2012. This year has seen the band playing a bunch of festivals and sold out tours following the release of their sophomore studio album in the form of the eclectic offering ‘Gracetown’. The new record showcases different sounds, including disco and funk vibes, against the backdrop of a worldlier undertone from the band. The highly anticipated sequel to their critically-acclaimed self-titled debut is set to please MEMORY LANE audiences as they perform their anthemic, quirky indie pop tunes.

Joining San Cisco high on the bill is former Triple J Unearthed High winners, Stonefield who take to the MEMORY LANE stage after winning ‘Rock Work of the Year’ at this year’s 2015 APRA Awards for their highly praised debut album. The all girl group are currently producing their second studio album with Spiderbait’s Kram and recently released a darker moodier track ‘Golden Dream’ which is the first taste from the collaboration.

MEMORY LANE will also feature live performances from Patrick James and Zefereli and local acts Bear in a Man Suit, Plebeian Groove and Withernecks.

MEMORY LANE will be held on Sunday October 18th from noon until 7 pm and promises to get audiences grooving in the laneway behind Port Central in celebration of music, food and more.

Aimed at providing Port Macquarie’s youth with a recreational stress release valve in the lead up to exams and end of year pressure and promises to grace their eardrums with a deliciously exciting mix of musical talents.

With the announcement today of some of Australia’s most hectic indie rock bands, provides significant opportunities for local acts to play with calibre bands, bringing together musicians, music lovers, creatives and party people in search of a good time.

MJR Presents have joined forces with Port Macquarie Hastings Council, headspace and Mid North Coast Lifesaving to bring you the all ages drug and alcohol free event transforming the Port Central laneway into a vibrant and engaging youth precinct. The laneway will be filled with young people entertaining and being entertained in a place they can call their own.

Tickets available soon from oztix.com.au and will be strictly limited, so pre-purchase will be essential.
