The Hunters & Collectors Australian Tour 2014 has expanded, adding an extra date due to overwhelming demand for the reunion of the Australian music legends.
A second performance by Hunters & Collectors has been confirmed at Melbourne’s Palais Theatre on Saturday 12th April after tickets to the iconic band’s first Melbourne show were quickly snapped up after going on sale.
The reformed Hunters & Collectors will be performing Day On The Green concerts nationally, followed by a series of special indoor concerts (presented by Frontier Touring) in which the powerhouse Australian outfit is once again set to enthral and thrill not only devotees from the past, but also a whole new generation of music lovers.
Hunters & Collectors will be joined at the majority of winery shows by You Am I, with Diesel taking the stage at the others. Something For Kate and British India, who both pay tribute to the Hunters on the Crucible album, will be special guests at all winery shows. The Panics will be the supports for the theatre shows.
The tour news comes amidst a hub of recent Hunters & Collectors activity – including their winning performance at the AFL Grand Final, being special guests at Melbourne’s two Bruce Springsteen concerts in February, and most importantly, the release of Crucible – The Songs Of Hunters & Collectors, the lovingly curated album featuring 15 stunning tributes from the likes of The Living End, Birds Of Tokyo, Neil Finn & Eddie Vedder and Paul Kelly accompanied by 15 original H&C recordings/Liberation Music.
The album is testimony to the extraordinary Hunters & Collectors legacy, one that was built not only their uniquely-Australian songs and Mark Seymour’s razor sharp lyrics, but also on their commanding and powerful live performances. The album has been the fillip for the band’s reformation.
Ask anyone to describe a Hunters & Collectors gig and words like ‘primal’, ‘sweat-soaked’, ‘intense’, ‘ferocious’ come to the fore. Few bands made their mark in the live landscape like ‘The Hunnas’ did. It was a badge of honour they wore with pride and fought to sustain at every show – approaching 2,000 of them across 15 countries – resulting in a profound connection with audiences everywhere.
Don’t miss out before these tickets disappear!
