After postponing their largest headline tour to date due to COVID-19 (originally scheduled from May – July), Australian alt-rock group The Rubens have now officially announced their re-scheduled tour dates, taking place from Sep – Dec & onsale now.
The NSW band will play metro cities for the first time since their 2018 LO LA RU album shows, across venues such as Fortitude Music Hall (Bris), Freo.Social (Freo), The Forum (Melb), and The Enmore Theatre (Syd). After having embarked on 3 regional tours in the past 18 months, the band will be revisiting some old regional favourites as well as some towns they’ve never played before, including Bundaberg, Warrnambool, Shepparton and more.
The tour, presented by triple j, is in celebration of their summer hit, ‘Live In Life’ – which is now certified Platinum. The band performed the track for the Channel 9 broadcast of Music From The Home Front on Anzac Day, which is available to watch back here. Since its November release, ‘Live In Life’ has been a summer anthem across triple j (#1 most played) & the HIT network, as well as spins across Nova National Late Nights & Triple M National Late Night/Weekends.
Check out The Rubens new single Live In Life below and a full list of the rescheduled tour dates.
