Patti Smith and Her Band Announce 2020 Australian Tour

UPDATE (21/1/20): Due to overwhelming demand, Patti Smith and Her Band have added another show in Melbourne as well as a new show in Newcastle. Details below.

Original Story:

The legendary Patti Smith and Her Band have already been announced as a headliner for next year’s Bluesfest, but now the music icon has announced that she will be taking on other dates down the east coast next year as well.

This will be the first time Smith has been in Australia since she headlined Bluesfest back in 2017, and she said in a statement that she thought she might never come back – but is glad she was wrong.

“I’d like to do it all over again. I’m ready if you are!” she said.

“I really didn’t expect to be coming back, but it was just such a great trip. I really thought that I wouldn’t be able to come back – so I’m delighted that I was wrong.”

Smith will play two shows at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre and two shows at Melbourne’s The Forum, following her performance at Bluesfest.
