Currently making waves in the United States, the band will kick off their New Zealand tour at Auckland’s Spark Arena in late August with our own home-grown blues maestro, C.W. Stoneking before hitting our shores from the 28th, starting with Brisvegas’ Riverstage before playing a string of shows until closing at W.A’s Perth Arena.
Undoubtedly one of the best rock bands of the new millennium, they’ll be hitting the stage with fan favourites including, Head Like a Haunted House, The Way You Used to Do and The Evil Has Landed.
