Australian rock duo Hockey Dad bring the Rebuild Repeat tour around Australia this June, presented by triple j and Volcom. The tour announcement follows the release of their latest single ‘Base Camp’ and news of their fourth studio album, Rebuild Repeat, due for release on June 14.
Hockey Dad, comprised of childhood friends Zach Stephenson and Billy Fleming, will kick off the Rebuild Repeat tour in Perth, before making their way to Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne and concluding at Sydney. Militarie Gun will be joining them as special guest for shows in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, with The Belair Lip Bombs opening proceedings for all dates.
What began as a pastime during surfless days, Hockey Dad have now been a band for 10 years. Built around their EP and three album releases (earning them Gold and Platinum awards) they have amassed a legion of fans that have seen them headlining tours across Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Canada, the USA, and UK, and performing main stage sets at some of the world’s biggest festivals. On announcing the ‘Rebuild Repeat’ album and Australian tour, Hockey Dad are in the middle of performing 21 headline shows across the USA and Canada. It’s start of a new and exciting era for the band.
Reflecting on how their performances have grown over the years Zach said: “The feeling on stage playing remains the same over all this time. It’s just deep trust and brotherhood. These new songs sound very different live, Moshers fear not! Come hang out at a show. Sing some songs, see friends and make friends.”
