Crowded House have announced that they will be touring Australia in November and December. Off the back of their upcoming album, Gravity Stairs, they will be performing in Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Newcastle and Brisbane.
In Sydney, they will be re-visiting the site of their famous ‘farewell’ concert of 1996, where an estimated 150,000 people came to the forecourt and surrounds of the Sydney Opera House. This year, they will be playing two nights at the iconic venue.
The superlatives about this band have been written so many times before. Incredible songwriting, a catalogue of hits a mile long – there is no doubt this will be a night to remember.
The new album, Gravity Stairs is out on the 31st May, so you will have plenty of time to get familiar with it. You can pre-order it HERE.
About playing this tour, Neil Finn shares: “So looking forward to getting amongst our people having practiced in the northern hemisphere for a few months. The band will be running hot and we can’t wait to sing with you and elevate our collective spirits. Sing it if you want to be a part of Some Greater Plan”
Tickets will sell like proverbial hot cakes.
