The iconic Todd Rundgren, returns to Australia for the first time since 2018, playing 3 headline shows, backed by a band led by You Am I’s Davey Lane.
Born and raised in Philadelphia, Rundgren began playing guitar as a teenager, going on to found and front The Nazz, the quintessential `60’s psychedelic group. In 1969, he left the band to pursue a solo career, recording his debut offering, the legendary Runt. But it was 1972’s seminal Something/Anything?, on which he played all the instruments, sang all the vocal parts, and acted as his own producer, that catapulted Todd into the superstar limelight, prompting the press to unanimously dub him ‘Rock’s New Wunderkind’. It was followed by such landmark LPs as The Hermit of Mink Hollow and the above mentioned A Wizard, A True Star, as well as such hit singles as I Saw The Light, Hello It’s Me, Can We Still Be Friends, and Bang The Drum.
The tour kicks off on February 22 at the Corner Hotel, Melbourne, followed by February 23 at The Triffid, Brisbane and concluding on February 24 at Sydney’s Factory Theatre. Tickets are available now.
