Staff Writer

"The band's history with Australia is legendary. Getting to reconnect with that is going to be epic!"

Live Profile

Now that Pennsylvanian rockers Live have successfully broken in Chris Shinn as their replacement lead singer since the departure of Ed Kowalczyk in 2009, the quartet have got Australia in their sights for a one-off show.

The band will head to Melbourne's Forum Theatre for a one-off show this November, supported by Melbourne alt rockers Chocolate Starfish.

Shinn says of their upcoming Australian visit: "Australia has been at the top of our list since I joined Līve. This will be my first trip there and to say I'm excited would be a huge understatement.

"The band's history with Australia is legendary. Getting to reconnect with that is going to be epic!"

The outfit will have their ninth album The Turn in tow, which is their first release with Shinn.
