From dominating the ARIA charts and Hottest 100 to taking festival stages by storm, 2018 was undeniably a whirlwind year for Australian fuzz-punk luminaries Skegss.
The trailblazing three-piece have announced a massive run of headline shows for mid-2019, which will see the band take to largest stages of their career thus far.
The five-date run will see Skegss kick things off at Fremantle’s Metropolis on June 21, wrapping things up at Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall on July 27th.
Warming up crowds hungry for a cheeky mosh will be Ratbag Records signees Totty, rising skuzz-punks Mini Skirt and the one and only Aaron Gocs for a healthy dose of meme-worthiness.
“We are really excited to come and play our dream venues around Australia. Dropping our debut album last year My Own Mess everything has been crazy. We are taking our friends Aaron Gocs, Totty and Mini Skirt on the road. See yas there,” said Skegss upon announcement.
To celebrate the tour’s announcement, Skegss have also unveiled a new video for the My Own Mess track ‘Road Trip’, shot and directed by their good pal Kai Neville. The video documents the lads on tour, highlighting the high points and reflective moments of life on the road – a surefire way to get you amped for what will definitely be a run of insane shows.
