Australian rock icons Grinspoon are psyched to hit the road for their anticipated whatever, whenever, wherever tour, set to kick off tonight with a sold out show at Ballina RSL, before rolling on to sold out shows at Vinnie’s Dive Bar (Gold Coast) tomorrow and The Tivoli (Brisbane) on Friday, before moving to Toowoomba on Saturday and back to the Gold Coast on Sunday.  The extensive tour, a run of 43 shows nationally, has fans from all pockets of the country eagerly anticipating the chance to see Grinspoon perform live at some of Australia’s best loved venues.

Following the release of the band’s new album, whatever, whatever, Grinspoon landed an impressive #3 ARIA Album chat debut for their 8th studio album release, their first new release in 12 years. The record’s success underscores the band’s enduring appeal and their ability to deliver music that resonates deeply with their audience.

Grinspoon’s tour promises an electrifying experience, celebrating their new music while paying homage to the hits that have defined their career. Each show will feature a dynamic setlist that includes tracks from whatever, whatever alongside fan favorites from their extensive back catalogue.

One cannot help but be bursting at the proverbial seams with the imminent arrival of the ‘whatever, whenever, wherever’ tour.  We cannot wait to play these songs to people because they’re new; we also cannot wait to see the people because we haven’t seen them for so long. Mackay I’m looking at you, Cairns, what’s it been? Seven years?
It fills us with great excitement, joy, and danceathons, anticipating our touchdown in the regional areas and in the capital cities, especially on Tuesday nights. Why Tuesday nights? Because Tuesday night is a night that people could be partying but they don’t. It’s kind of the rejected night, Tuesdays. Where restaurants and movie theatres run special offers to fill empty seats. We want to bring Tuesdays back to the masses. We wanna make Tuesdays part of the vernacular again. What are you doing Tuesday? This should be the new, ‘what are you doing Friday?’ This is our mission. What are you doing Tuesday? We’re seeing Grinspoon. That’s what we’re doing. What are you doing Wednesday? We’re gonna go see Grinspoon again, because they were so good on Tuesday. So forget Friday, forget Saturdays. Let’s do Tuesdays. See you soon? Phil Jamieson.

Tickets for the remaining shows are selling fast, and fans are encouraged to secure their spots soon to avoid disappointment. For more information on tour dates and ticket availability, please visit Grinspoon’s official website.

With 13 ARIA Award nominations, over half a million records sold, and an untouchable live reputation, their impact on contemporary Australian rock is undeniable. Grinspoon’s influence continues to shape the Australian rock scene, and whatever, whatever is a testament to their lasting legacy and creative rejuvenation.

Set to tear up stages around Australia with Press Club as main support for all shows, tickets to the band’s extensive 43 date ‘whatever, whenever, wherever’ tour are moving fast.

Ballina, Southport, Brisbane x 2, Gladstone, Mackay, Townsville,  Coffs Harbour, Port Macquarie, Pooraka, Adelaide, Barwon Heads and Perth shows are already sold out.

Tickets to remaining shows are available from grinspoon.com.au/.
