CRASH TEST DUMMIES RETURN TO AUSTRALIA
THE GREATEST HITS TOUR — ALL THE SONGS YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR
Last time, the classic album. This time, every hit.
Crash Test Dummies are heading back to Australia in April 2027 — and they’re not coming quietly. After a sold‑out 2025 run that reminded audiences exactly why they became one of the most unmistakable bands of the ’90s, the Dummies return with a full‑throttle, career‑spanning Greatest Hits Tour.
Their comeback was met with glowing praise, celebrating the band’s singular sound, razor‑sharp musicianship, and Brad Roberts’ iconic baritone; a voice critics still can’t stop talking about.
“Crash Test Dummies, 30 years on, still have the magic” (Hear 2 Zen Magazine)
“Brad Roberts sounded as pitch perfect as on any original 1993 vinyl recording” (Music Festivals Australia)
Last time, they delivered God Shuffled His Feet front to back. This time, they’re opening the entire vault. Fans will get the songs that shaped a generation — the hits, the deep cuts, the moments that made Crash Test Dummies a global phenomenon.
Expect Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm, Superman’s Song, Afternoons & Coffeespoons, Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead, God Shuffled His Feet and plenty more.
There’s simply no mistaking this band. Their blend of folk‑rock, alt‑pop, wry storytelling and that unmistakable voice carved out a lane nobody else could occupy and their songs still hit with the same strange, warm, unforgettable charm.
If you were there last time, this tour is a whole new beast; bigger, broader, built around the tracks fans have been shouting for. If you’re new, prepare to meet a band whose originality remains as sharp as ever.
The songs you remember. The voice you never forget.
“It was a hearty, soul-restoring night of music” (Scenestr)
“The most wholesome slice of nostalgia I think I’ve ever had the chance to experience. What a show!” (May The Rock Be With You)
“Brad Roberts’ unmistakable voice remains as captivating as ever” (The Live Wire)
“As soon as Brad Roberts opens his mouth... one can't help but hear it — that voice remains as iconic as ever, in front of another sellout crowd” (13th Floor)
“The band sounds great, and hearing Brad’s vocals live is something special” (May The Rock Be With You)
