HOODOO GURUS | REWIND TOUR – ALL KILLER, NO FILLER
WITH VERY SPECIAL GUESTS RATCAT AND THE STEMS
NOV – DEC 2026

Frontier Touring are thrilled to announce that one of Australia’s most enduring and beloved musical acts, Hoodoo Gurus, will celebrate the 45th anniversary of the band’s formation with the Hoodoo Gurus Rewind Tour – All Killer, No Filler in November and December 2026.

Joining the Gurus on all shows are one of our most influential indie pop-punk bands, Sydney’s RATCAT, celebrating their 40th anniversary as a group, along with Perth’s legendary arbiters of garage rock, THE STEMS.

This epic all Aussie line-up plays Adelaide, Perth, Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

Hoodoo Gurus occupy a singular place in Australian – and international – rock’n’roll history. Formed in Sydney in 1981 by members of seminal ’70s Australian punk bands The Victims and Fun Things, the Gurus fused garage rock grit with pop smarts, sharp songwriting and an unrepentant love of classic rock’n’roll. Their sound – drawing on ’60s and ’70s influences but unmistakably their own – helped place them at the forefront of the global alternative, garage-rock and power-pop movement of the mid-1980s and beyond.

Across four decades, Hoodoo Gurus have amassed 10 ARIA Top 20 albums, nine Top 40 singles and multiple platinum certifications, while remaining one of Australia’s most formidable live bands. Their influence can be heard in generations of artists from You Am I and Spiderbait to Violent Soho, and they continue to be name-checked by international peers.

Inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 2007, the Gurus remain vital and reveredelder statesmen of Australian rock. With sold-out tours, a catalogue of radio staples and a legacy that spans continents and generations, Hoodoo Gurus are one of Australia’s most enduring and beloved musical acts.

Join Hoodoo Gurus with special guests RATCAT and THE STEMS for an unmissable celebration of timeless classics and era-defining hits this November and December.

Performers

Hoodoo Gurus
Hoodoo Gurus (formed in 1981) is an Australian new wave influenced rock band who rose to national prominence in the late ’80s with the albums “Mars Needs Guitars” and “Blow Your Cool!” – hailing from Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Ratcat
RATCAT - A short biography Although rare occurrence to catch this ground breaking Australian act performing live, RATCAT remain permanently placed in the indie hall of fame for dragging Australian music culture out of a stagnant pub rock 80’s phase and bringing alternate pop/punk guitar rock to the masses during the late 80’s / early 1990’s. Being at the forefront of an international musical change of direction which witnessed the boundaries between the independent & commercial sectors literally smashed to oblivion, RATCAT’s incredible rise to popularity was the result of public demand and with virtually no mass marketing (at the time). Ratcat released the ground breaking ‘Tingles’ EP in 1990 (after a spate of independent releases via the Waterfront Label) which - & with no fanfare whatsoever - made a steady climb to the top of the National Top Forty after 7 months ‘Tingles’ thereafter scored the accolade of becoming the highest selling EP of that year. Featuring the ‘sleeper’ hit ‘That Ain’t Bad’, it did herald the beginning of a new musical era that would resonate worldwide not but 14 months later courtesy of a Seattle based 3 piece known as Nirvana & their ground breaking album, ‘Nevermind’. The subsequent release of the ‘Blind Love’ album resulted in yet another number 1 chart result & again to the complete surprise of the band members and all involved at the time, Ratcat also scored a coinciding duel number one with the single ‘Don’t Go Now’ (aria singles charts).
The Stems
One of Perth’s most popular and iconic bands THE STEMS.
