Ok, so here we go ... my first Tour of 2025 kicks off in Mansfield VIC on Saturday 1 March and then spends the whole of March and April whizzing around, mainly, Victoria and Melbourne.
There are a few dates in the ACT and NSW, though. You should check them out.
It kicks off with a special double-gig in Mansfield with a massive discount ticket.
Also, please, please, please share the news of the Tour and individual gigs with your networks - getting the word out via social media is proving really difficult at the moment.
Looking forward to seeing you on the road this year!
