Fire up Australia! Brace yourself for the ultimate trans-pacifc matefest hitting our golden shores this August and September: Dune Rats and FIDLAR are teaming up once again for a tour that promises to be nothing short of epic!

The Dune Rats / FIDLAR relationship has been a legendary touring brotherhood that has seen these two bands ping-pong across the globe side by side. They have spent the better part of a decade playing shows together, starting back when FIDLAR frst ventured down under to join Dunies on a tour across Australia. After

Dune Rats showed them our classic Southern hospitality consisting mainly of beer and BBQ’s, all the while throwing in a bit of surfng and a healthy amount of partying,

FIDLAR was stoked to return the favour by bundling them into a van for a wild 3 month tour of the US of A - where they found themselves gigging through Gator Back

Come on a darkly wild ride of immersive storytelling, physical theatre, laughter and song with NORPA’s wondrous epic Wildskin.

This isn’t your traditional theatre experience. Inside an industrial warehouse, your journey will take you inside the performance as the dark, outrageous, and unpredictable world of Wildskin unfolds before you.

Eva believes the only way to mend her broken life is to go on the road, solo. Lost, alone and under-prepared, she is soon breaking rules, and embracing danger. After encountering wild animals and even wilder humans, does Eva have the primal instincts to handle any challenge life throws at her?

From the team behind Love For One Night, Wildskin is another sensory-smashing, destination theatre experience. Staged inside a gritty warehouse at Lismore Showgrounds – to really enhance the bush-horror vibe – this is daring and joyous theatre.

If you love the unexpected, grab some friends, and hold on for this one-of-a-kind evening.

EVENT DETAILS:

• When: 12 - 28 SEP, 7.30PM

• Where: Lismore Showgrounds

• Price: $30 - $59

• Tickets: Via the QR code scratchers in Florida to the bright lights of New York City and everywhere in between! The camaraderie only grew stronger when Zac from FIDLAR signed on to produce Dune Rats second album - “The Kids Will Know It’s Bulls**t” back in 2017, putting his magic touch on what have since become iconic Aussie classics such as “Bullshit” and “Scott Green”.

After playing the UK together last year, where the two bands would fnd themselves sitting backstage drinking warm ales and talking about their soon-to-be-released albums - Dune Rats’ “If It Sucks, Turn It Up” set for release on August 9 and FIDLAR’s “Surviving The Dream” out September 20, they realised they all very much wanted to keep the party rolling. And thankfully for Australian fans, out of those talks came this very tour. This time around the venues will be bigger, the crowds will be wilder and the vibes will no doubt be off the hook! So grab yourself a ticket right now to guarantee yourself a piece of the mayhem!
