Australian Rock Collective (ARC) To Celebrate 50 Years Of 'Hotel California' With National Tour

"We’re not shy of challenging ourselves, and this could be the most challenging yet," said ARC's Davey Lane.

The country’s favourite supergroup, Australian Rock Collective (ARC), will hit the road again this June, today announcing a tour in celebration of the Eagles’ classic album, Hotel California, turning 50.

After commemorating legendary records such as Led Zeppelin IV, Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side Of The Moon, The Beatles’ Let It Be, and others, ARC – comprising Australian rock royalty Kram (Spiderbait), Darren Middleton (Powderfinger), Mark Wilson (Jet) and Davey Lane (You Am I) – are ready to take on a new challenge.

The tour will see the group honour Hotel California and perform a string of other Eagles’ greatest hits.

Commencing in Brunswick Heads on Friday, 5 June, the tour continues in Brisbane, Newcastle, Thirroul, Canberra, Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, and concludes in Perth on Wednesday, 24 June. You can find the list of dates and venues below.

“Strap yourselves in and be our esteemed guests as we set the controls for the heart of the sunny Californian state, the spirit of ’76 and one of the greatest selling albums of all time - The Eagles’ Hotel California,” Davey Lane said.

Lane continued, “It’s incredibly precise and loose, fast and easy (seemingly) - we’re not shy of challenging ourselves, and this could be the most challenging yet. We’ve been very lucky to grace some of the greatest Australian venues and concert halls over the last seven years we’ve annually done this and we’re limbering up for this to be the biggest tour yet. We might even grow moustaches especially for the occasion!”
