News : John Garcia announces Australian acoustic east coast tour dates
John Garcia, the voice behind Kyuss, Vista Chino and Unida (among others) will be performing special acoustic sets for the first time ever in Australia this April thanks to Destroy All Lines. John Garcia is no stranger to Australia having toured with Kyuss Lives in 2013 at the Soundwave Festival, and Unida in May of the same year.
Over the last two-plus decades, JOHN GARCIA‘s voice has set the standard for the sound of the California desert. His work in genre-progenitors Kyuss speaks for itself — loudly, and with much fuzz — and subsequent outfits Vista Chino, Unida, Slo Burn, Hermano. His contribution to the legacy of rock n roll is relentless not historical.
We invite you to hitch a ride, settle in the backseat and listen to his stories as he performs tracks across his storied catalogue acoustically for the first time ever in Australia.
Tickets go on sale Thursday 25 January, 9am local.
TOUR DATES:
Thursday 19 April – Barwon Club, Geelong 18+
Friday 20 April – Cherry Bar, Melbourne 18+
Saturday 21 April – Factory Floor, Sydney 18+
Sunday 22 April – The Brightside, Brisbane 18+
