Jethro Tull guitarist Martin Barre will head to Australia for a tour this year. 

Barre will be here for the 50 Years Of Jethro Tull tour, which will see him share a two-hour performance of the band's hits and deep cuts, including tracks like Aqualung, Locomotive Breath, Songs From The Wood and more.

"It’s going to be an exciting set encompassing my 50 year history with Jethro Tull," shared Barre. 

"We love being on the road and touring, seeing our dedicated fans and we’re so excited to be coming to Australia this year!  


"I receive so many emails from fans there asking when I’m next playing Down Under, so it will be brilliant to spend November playing for everyone and taking them on that incredible journey I had with the band."

The tour will kick off at Sydney's Factory Theatre on 20 November and will then head to Newcastle, the Blue Mountains, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth, wrapping up in Fremantle.
