Redd Kross & Hard-Ons Add Extra Show To 2026 Australian Tour

The two rock bands will tour across the East Coast in March 2026.

Two beloved rock bands, Los Angeles outfit Redd Kross and Australia’s the Hard-Ons, are touring together in early 2026.

With performances along the East Coast booked for next March, demand for the tour, announced this week, has been massive. The demand for tickets has been so extraordinary that a Melbourne show has already sold out, with another gig announced today. Tickets to all shows, aside from the sold-out gig at The Tote, are on sale now via the Hard-Ons website.

Both bands have new music on the way and a shared history of brilliance, loved by punters across the country. Redd Kross have been touring Australia since 1992, and last visited in 2017 for a double bill with The Melvins.

Last year, Redd Kross celebrated their 45th anniversary by releasing their most acclaimed album to date – a self-titled effort – as well as a feature-length documentary, Born Innocent: The Redd Kross Story, and a memoir, Now You’re One Of Us: The Incredible Story Of Redd Kross.

The Hard-Ons also celebrated a milestone anniversary recently – their 40th – with a film and last year’s I Like You A Lot Getting Older, which followed their run of Top 40 records. The band hit #4 on the ARIA chart with I’m Sorry Sir, That Riff’s Been Taken in 2021, their first record with singer Tim Rogers.

A new documentary about the Hard-Ons, Harder & Harder, is currently in cinemas. It’s a sequel to the recently released The Most Australian Band Ever!, which will soon arrive on Blu-Ray.
