Everclear announce Australian tour

After a 14 year absence from our shores, Everclear have announced a long-awaited Australian tour for mid-October of this year.

The last time they were here, back in 1998, Everclear were riding high after the success of albums ‘Sparkle And Fade’ and ‘So Much For The Afterglow’, which provided such hits as ‘Heroin Girl’, ‘Santa Monica’ and ‘Everything To Everyone’.

Singer and guitarist, Art Alexakis, remains the only original member of the line up, which has released a wide variety of albums since their last visit, including concept albums about Alexakis’ divorce, ‘best of’ compilations, and cover albums. They are currently working on their first new album in six years.

Before arriving in Australia, they will be teaming up with fellow 90s acts Sugar Ray, Lit, Marcy Playground and Gin Blossoms for the ‘90s Retromania Of The Summerland’ tour.

Tickets for the gigs go on sale Friday June 1, and are available through Moshtix or The Hifi website(Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne), or Oztix (Coolangatta, Perth).
