The New Zealanders will be here in the summer

More The Datsuns The Datsuns

New Zealand rock stalwarts The Datsuns have announced an Aussie tour, with the four-piece confirming nine dates for this December.

The band, who formed in the town of Cambridge in 2000, will play dates all across the country, kicking the fun off in Hobart at Republic Bar on Thursday 4 December and finishing up on Sunday 14 December at Fremantle's Railway Hotel.

The tour is in support of their fortcoming sixth studio album Deep Sleep, which drops here on Friday 3 October through Hellsquad/Valve Records/MGM. Fans can grab a free download of one of Deep Sleep's tracks, Caught In The Silver, and the full record can be pre-ordered here.

And while you're in a Datsuns frame of mind, check out the video to their latest single Bad Taste:
