UK alt-rock powerhouses Nothing But Thieves are heading back Down Under — and they’re not just tagging along for the ride. In addition to their already announced dates supporting Ocean Alley and Rainbow Kitten Surprise, the Essex genre-benders have just dropped news of two headline shows this January, giving Aussie fans the chance to catch them in full flight.
The band will hit Adelaide’s Hindley St Music Hall on Monday, 26th Jan and Anita’s Theatre in Thirroul on Wednesday, 28th Jan, rounding out a scorching summer run that’ll also see them join Ocean Alley for a trio of massive outdoor shows in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney.
Nothing But Thieves – ‘Oh No :: He Said What?’
With a sound that effortlessly swerves between thunderous alt-rock, cinematic electronica and soaring pop anthems, Nothing But Thieves have earned a rep as one of the UK’s most daring and dynamic live acts. Their rise has been nothing short of meteoric — 2.2 billion global streams, 1.7 million album sales, sold-out Wembley Arena dates, and sets at basically every major Euro festival worth knowing about, from Glastonbury to Mad Cool.
Their latest album, Dead Club City was a smash — debuting at #1 in the UK and Netherlands, while also nabbing chart peaks here in Aus. Critics and fans alike have praised its bold sonic evolution, blending the band’s signature raw emotional punch with layered, futuristic production.
If you’re a fan, you can suss all the dates and details down below.
