Following the recent announcement of their ‘On a Truck’ festival experience in Albany and Dunsborough, OLD MERVS have doubled down and revealed a stack of regional dates for the first quarter of 2026. Dave and Henry will be hitting up regional centres across Western Australia, Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales from January through to March, belting out tracks for their 2025 debut album along with old favorites.
With regional touring a fond pastime for the Kojonup-raised duo, the tour sees a slew of dates across Australia, with Dave and Henry hitting Esperance, Albany, Geraldton and Dunsborough in WA before making a stop in the Victorian seaside town of Torquay and Toowoomba in Queensland. Spending the rest of the tour along the NSW coast, Old Mervs will take to the stage in Brunswick Heads, Coffs Harbour, Dee Why, Miranda, Gosford and Ulladulla.
Last embarking on a regional tour at the start of 2024, OLD MERVS can’t wait to get back on the road and back to their country roots. They said “Raring to get over to the east coast and out to some joints we haven’t played before! Best time of the year to do it!!”
The shows at Albany Racecourse and Dunsborough Footy Oval will see the duo deliver a festival experience like no other, with a custom built truck stage and lineup of mates. Inviting some of the best of the west along for the ride, Great Gable, Little Guilt and Polly will take to the stage in Albany, while Fool Nelson, Little Guilt and Polly will join the party in Dunsborough. There will also be a local artist added to the line up for each show. Big supporters of all things regional WA, Old Mervs are stoked to bring their truck stage idea to life, at the same time fundraising for local footy clubs along the way.
In the midst of this, OLD MERVS will pop over to Tasmania to play Party in the Paddock in February, along with Ball Park Music, The Veronicas, The Temper Trap and heaps more.
An unbreakable bond shared between lifelong mates, Dave and Henry hail from the tiny farming community of Kojonup, a town three hours south of Perth, WA.
Riding a wave of wins, OLD MERVS are celebrating a massive 2025 after the success of their ARIA-charting debut album release and sold out tours across Australia, the United States, including Chicago’s Lollapalooza, the UK and Europe.
Placing at 38 in the triple j Hottest 100 with “What You’ve Lost” and releasing their self-titled debut album, Old Mervs kicked 2025 off with a bang. Recorded with ARIA award-winning producer Chris Collins, the album scored triple j’s Feature Album of the week and landed at #1 on the ARIA album charts, winning hearts with hits “Parched“, “What You’ve Lost”, “Forget It”, “Everyone Will See It” and “Don’t Go”.
Marking their biggest year yet, the pair embarked on a mammoth 20 date album tour across Australia and New Zealand along with their biggest headline home-state show to date at Perth HPC. They then headed to the US to play at world-renowned festival Lollapalooza alongside names like Olivia Rodrigo, Tyler the Creator and Sabrina Carpenter, bookended by a massive run of headline shows across the States. They have closed out the year with a return to the UK and their first ever shows in Europe.
