Spiderbait

NATIONAL BLACK BETTY 20^TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR 

Presented by:  Frontier Touring and New World Artists

Iconic Aussie rockers Spiderbait will hit the road with their Black Betty 20^th Anniversary Tour this August, September and October, playing an extensive run of shows to celebrate the 20^th Anniversary of their seminal 2004 album, Tonight Alright and standout track, ‘Black Betty’. 

Recorded in California, Tonight Alright (2004) leant into the hard rock sound of the early-2000’s. The album debuted at No.14 on the ARIA Album Chart that year and featured the band’s most popular song to date, ‘Black Betty’. 

Renowned for their dynamic on-stage energy, Spiderbait are without doubt one of the country’s most beloved live acts. Most recently touring Australia in 2022, the trio shows no sign of slowing down, their intensity and camaraderie endearing them to fans right across the globe. 

“Spiderbait made a mighty lush sound… They played with an energising, steamrolling pace that never let up” – MusicFeeds

“… a roaring set, high energy, pub/alt-rock, shouting and groovy” – The Music

The story of Spiderbait is an unlikely but heart-warming one – three friends from a small Australian country town taking on the music scene, and emerging triumphantly thirty years later, friendship intact, and now one of the biggest and best rock bands on the national landscape.

The trio’s popularity spans three decades and shows no signs of abating. They’ve released seven acclaimed albums and chalked up almost every Australian accolade possible, taking home multiple ARIA Awards, topping charts and becoming the first Australian band to take the crown in triple j’s prestigious Hottest 100 of 1996 with ‘Buy Me A Pony’. 

Australian rock ‘n roll royalty, and with a catalogue of music that’s distinctive and uncompromising, Spiderbait’s anticipated Black Betty 20^th Anniversary Tour will see the band playing their greatest hits and celebrating their greatest hit of all.
