Skindred are officially heading back down under for their biggest ever Australian headline tour.
The Welsh ragga-metal heavyweights will kick things off in Perth on Tuesday 1 September before tearing through Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney, wrapping up the run in Brisbane on Sunday 6 September.
Skindred – ‘If I Could’
Formed in Newport in the late ‘90s, Skindred have built a global rep as one of the most electrifying live bands on the planet, blending reggae, punk, hip hop, nu metal, rock and electronica into one gloriously unhinged sonic cocktail. Across eight studio albums, countless world tours and festival takeovers – including their Knotfest Australia appearance in 2024 – the band have carved out a legacy built as much on unity and energy as it is on sheer musical firepower.
Their return also comes with fresh music in tow. Skindred’s ninth studio album, You Got This, lands April 17, with the newly streamlined trio of Benji Webbe, Mikey Demus and Arya Goggin teaming up with GRAMMY-winning producer Jay Ruston (Diana Ross, Meat Loaf, Mr Bungle). The record promises the same explosive fusion of dancehall grooves, arena-ready hooks and heavy-hitting riffs that made 2023’s Smile such a fan favourite.
Whether they’re sharing stages with KISS, Korn and Rob Zombie or turning festival fields into bouncing seas of sweat and smiles, Skindred don’t do half measures.
