L7 to Perform ‘Bricks Are Heavy’ in Full on 2023 Australian Tour

LA rock icons L7 are returning down under for the first time since 2016, in honour of the 30th anniversary of their breakout third album, Bricks are Heavy.

The ’90s grunge legends will be performing the LP in full when they return to our shores this December, visiting fans in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Melbourne.

L7 – ‘Pretend We’re Dead’

What’s more, they’ll be doing it with the bona fide OG lineup of Donita Sparks (guitar/vox), Suzi Gardner (guitar/vox), Jennifer Finch (bass) and Demetra Plakas (drums).

Bricks are Heavy was produced by the legendary Butch Vig, whose CV includes Nirvana’s historic Nevermind LP, and catapulted the band to mainstream success with the help of lead single, ‘Pretend We’re Dead’.

L7 released six albums throughout their decade-long career but called it a day in 1999 following their final record Slap-Happy. They reunited in 2014, before touring Australia in late 2016 (after becoming one of the first bands to drop off the ill-fated final Soundwave festival, which was ultimately cancelled).

You can peep all the details of their 2023 Bricks are Heavy Australian tour down below.
