Following Illy’s “Good Life”, his 3rd ARIA #1 Aus album, and the huge capital city tour of the same name, comes “The Good-er Life Tour”, mammoth, 27 date party around Australia. With an explosive live show, a litany of certified classics, and an album of new hits, Illy and the band are bringing high octane energy to stages country wide this August to November.

Jumping straight back into another tour to celebrate Half The Laugh and probably play more new songs. Playing more cities this time and with our best mates, The Beefs. Can’t wait to watch their set every night. Greg coming to Canberra and the snow with us also!!

Hi, it’s your friend Ben. Hope all's well.  I am celebrating the 20th anniversary Awake is the New Sleep with an Australian tour for September and October. I’m not really a nostalgic person, I prefer to keep pushing forward with new projects and ideas, but this feels weirdly right to me. I’ve done so much touring in the last couple of years, averaging about 100 shows a year, and it's become abundantly clear to me that this album Awake was a really vital part of so many people’s lives and emotional journeys. I’ve chatted to so many people about the wide-eyed exploration and optimism of the record, and how it still seems to find people at the exact right time that they need that kind of energy. It’s an album that seemed to change a lot of lives, including mine. I’m looking forward to facing that, head on, and exploring what these songs mean to me and the audience today, 20 years on. They still feel potent. I’m going to play the whole album in full, with a great band behind me, and tell you some stories about how these tunes came to be. We're doing it 2005 style, no backing tracks, no click tracks, no video screens. Just a great band on a stage covered in flowers, singing songs about love and lust and adventure and interconnectivity. It’s gonna be a vibe. Come along for the ride.  Big love! Your friend. Ben

Do you have the best singing voice in the world? Unlikely. But do you have the WORST singing voice in the world? EQUALLY UNLIKELY. Your voice is probably average (at best), and at Pub Choir: we think that’s great!Now in it’s 8th year, Pub Choir is the easiest, funniest, largest music lesson in the world. Created and led by the human rubber band Astrid, be snapped into shape and flicked by her quick humour as she teaches everybody how to make a BRAND NEW PIECE OF ART TOGETHER.What will happen at the show? An entirely improvised, comedy music lesson, where you are the main attraction. Astrid will teach you one song (yep, just the one) in 3-part harmony, and you will do your best to follow her instructions and not to cry.Generally, you should prepare yourself to learn something new and to not be a dickhead in public. But what should you specifically prepare? Nothing. It’s not that kind of choir. There’ll be no auditions and no homework. Just bring your mouth and we’ll do the rest.So come and bring your average-at-best self, and your average-at-best friends, and let’s try to worry less and feel better. Also worth mentioning, Astrid wrote a book, and it’s called Average At Best and signed copies will be available for pre-order purchase with Pub Choir tickets, to be collected at the show. Vocal health depending, Astrid plans to sit at the merch desk and sign these books after every show until her audience grows tired of her.

YEEHAW! It's Grinspoon's 30th birthday and you're invited!
