US rockers Papa Roach are currently preparing for their first-ever Australian headline tour, and they need some local bands to take up support slots.
The ‘Last Resort’ hitmakers are scheduled to arrive down under later this month for shows in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney, and have called on Aussie musicians to hit them up if they’re interested in supporting them.
“We know what it’s like to work hard for our dreams,” says frontman Jacoby Shaddix. “Help us spread the word cause we want to give you a leg up on the music industry ladder.”
To apply for the tour, artists need to send Papa Roach an email (to AreYouBFG@gmail.com) containing “a song, video and their influences in rock, indie punk [and] alternative genres” before Monday, 15th January. They also need to state which show (or shows) they are applying for, and DJs are also welcome to apply.
Papa Roach were last in Australia for Soundwave Festival back in 2015. Catch all the dates and ticket details for their 2018 headline tour, below.
