Californian rock royalty Stone Temple Pilots are returning to Australia to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their album Purple.

They’ll perform their chart-topping, multi-platinum second album in full at each show. The tour starts at ICC Sydney Theatre on February 28th, then heads to Melbourne (headlining Hello Sunshine Festival), Adelaide, Newcastle, and Brisbane, before wrapping up on the Gold Coast (Hello Sunshine Festival).

Aussie rock stalwarts Wolfmother will join the tour to kick off the shows.

Tickets go on sale Friday, September 6th at 9am AEST. For more details, visit www.teamwrktouring.com.

Released on June 7th, 1994, Purple was the follow-up to Stone Temple Pilots’ debut album Core, which sold over eight million copies and earned a GRAMMY Award.

Purple debuted at #1 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and sold over six million copies. It includes hits like “Interstate Love Song,” “Vasoline,” and “Big Empty,” which first appeared on The Crow soundtrack and won an MTV Movie Award.

Following their successful North American Jubilee Tour, Stone Temple Pilots are excited to continue the celebration in Australia, headlining Hello Sunshine Festival in Melbourne and Gold Coast, with additional shows in Sydney, Adelaide, Newcastle, and Brisbane.
