Pioneering grunge rockers Mudhoney have announced their return to Australia for an extensive tour of the country. It’ll be the band’s first visit to Australia since 2014 when they performed as part of the final Big Day Out tour.
Mudhoney will play headline dates across Queensland, New South Wales, ACT, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia throughout April and May 2023. Alongside their own shows, the group will appear at a number of festivals, including Lower Belford’s Gumball Festival and Melbourne’s Cherry Rock.
Mudhoney – ‘Touch Me I’m Sick’
Formed in 1988 following the dissolution of Green River, Mudhoney have long been credited with helping to develop the Seattle grunge sound. Heavily influenced by Australia’s The Scientists and admired by Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain, the band were long hailed as underground heroes, with wider mainstream success escaping them across their 34-career.
Mudhoney have continued to tour and record frequently. Their latest album is 2018’s Digital Garbage. Tickets to their upcoming tour are on sale now.
