For the first time ever in Australia, UK legends Happy Mondays will perform their seminal Pills 'n' Thrills & Bellyaches album in full during a tour of the country next year. 

The Salford-founded group are due to arrive next March, with shows slated in for Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, as well as their appearance at the Golden Plains Festival. 

Following its release in 1990, Pills 'n' Thrills & Bellyaches helped Happy Mondays break the big time, as it went platinum in the UK and featured hit tracks such as Step On and Kinky Afro.


Joining Shaun and Paul Ryder and Mark Day in the line-up is Bez (percussion & dancer), Gaz Whelan (drums), Rowetta (vocals) and Dan Broad (keyboardist and musical director). 

General public tickets for all shows go on sale from 9am local time this Friday (26 October); for more details, scroll down.
