Martika Makes First Ever Australian Visit

This is starting to get ridiculous.

It was just last night that we were ruminating on the nostalgia acts that have been announced as touring Australia in the past few months and wondering where it would end. So imagine our surprise to wake up this morning to news that Martika is going to be in Australia for the very first time in 2012.

Hear who we want to see in Australia.

While Martika was probably more of an '80s star, she retained the limelight in the early '90s as well. She had plenty of hits while she was in her heyday; you'll know Love… Thy Will Be Done, I Feel the Earth Move and Toy Soldiers and she has plenty more hits of equal brilliance which have kept her relevant even through a period of relative inactivity.

In 2012 she comes to Australia for the very first time as a part of her return to the touring circuit, championed by Perez Hilton, which she announced late last year and she will treat Australian audiences to performances at the following shows:

Thursday 27 September – Metro Theatre, Sydney
Friday 28 September – Trak Lounge Bar, Melbourne
Saturday 29 September – Panthers, Newcastle
Thursday 4 October – Metropolis, Fremantle
Friday 5 October – HQ, Adelaide
Saturday 6 October – The Auditorium, Canberra
Wednesday 10 October – The Hi-Fi, Brisbane
Friday 12 October – Brothers League Club, Cairns
