Papa RoachPapa Roach have today announced they will head to Australia in 2018 for what will be their first-ever headline shows in the country.
The US alt-rockers previously performed throughout Australia in support of Red Hot Chili Peppers' 2002 tour and also featured on the 2015 Soundwave line-up.
Papa Roach have locked in two shows next January in Melbourne and Sydney, in support of their May-released album, Crooked Teeth.
"This is the first time we have been able to bring our show to the people of Australia," frontman Jacoby Shaddix said.
"We know that Aussies are some of the best fans in the world and we have not been able to tour there as much as we had hoped but our label Sony convinced us that we had to come over and start the process to build our base and we are more than ready for the challenge.
"The internet has been a great tool and our fans are still finding us through YouTube and now Spotify helping us regenerate our audience after nearly 20 years as a band. Our streaming numbers are pretty undeniable and they are growing rapidly."
Tickets for the shows go on sale this Wednesday (11 October); click on theGuide for more details.
