The Living EndWith seven out of ten shows on their upcoming regional tour sold out, The Living End have revealed the special guests joining them on the run.
Aligning with the theme of the tour – promoting their latest album, I Only Trust Rock n Roll – The Living End have announced that a variety of impressive local, rocking support acts will open the shows.
On the Sunshine Coast, no-frills female-fronted alternative rock band SPEIRA will open proceedings. At the band’s other Queensland shows – Cairns, Townsville, and Mackay – The Living End will be joined by alternative rock, pop-punk and emo heroes Talk Heavy.
In Newcastle, viral teen outfit Maple’s Pet Dinosaur are opening the show; rock and roll band Big Alcatraz open in Hobart; ferocious rockers The Maggie Pills in Ballarat; Sydney alt-rock group LAHGO in Thirroul; and punks Sonic Reducer in Canberra.

The Living End’s shows in Sunshine Coast, Hobart, Ballarat, Cairns (first of two shows), Townsville, Mackay and Thirroul have sold out. Limited tickets remain for shows in Newcastle, Cairns (second show) and Canberra. You can find tickets here.
Frontman Chris Cheney said of the forthcoming shows, “The hunger we had when The Living End first began still drives our energy on stage every time we play.
“The songs from our latest album ‘I Only Trust Rock n Roll’ hit as hard as any of our older songs. Our gig philosophy is pretty simple: blow the fricken doors off! See you at the show.”
The Living End are touring in support of their most recent album, I Only Trust Rock n Roll, their first album in eight years, released last September.
