GRAMMY® Award-nominated Los Angeles quartet SILVERSUN PICKUPS are returning to Australia and New Zealand for the first time in 14 years. The acclaimed rockers will be belting out tracks from their brand new albumTenterhooks along with fan favourites from their timeless discography.
Known for their emotionally charged alt-rock anthems, the band’s rich catalogue continues to resonate with generations of fans, from huge single “Lazy Eye” and Gold-certified “Panic Switch” to acclaimed albums including Carnavas (2006), Swoon (2009) and Neck of the Woods (2012).
Released in February, the band unveiled their seventh studio albumTenterhooks. An unapologetic 10-track collection featuring singles “The Wreckage”, “New Wave” and “Long Gone”, Tenterhooks captures Silversun Pickups at their most electrifying with Sputnik Music calling it, “undeniably cinematic”.
A highly anticipated return for fans across the country, the band will be heading up Perth’s Astor Theatre, The Gov in Adelaide, The Tivoli in Brisbane, Hobart’s Odeon, Melbourne’s Forum and The Enmore in Sydney before crossing the pond to Auckland to play The Powerstation.
