FACE TO FACE TOURING is thrilled to announce that celebrated trailblazer, SUZI QUATRO, the undisputed queen of rock ‘n’ roll, will be returning to Australia later this year.  The rock icon has defined a place in music history, and her status remains unmatched.  

SUZI QUATRO will be playing at both seated venues & spectacular outdoor shows across the country.  These will be with very special guests, Baby Animals, and will take place in Rooty Hill, Sydney, Hobart, Gold Coast, Melbourne & Fremantle.  

Additionally, she will headline RED HOT SUMMER TOUR in true classic style – locations being Brisbane, Lake Macquarie, Torquay & Barossa Valley.  These outdoor shows will be supported by a rock fuelled line up of local acts, including Jon Stevens, Baby Animals, Rose Tattoo, Screaming Jets, Dragon & Choirboys (line-ups differ in several states).

SUZI QUATRO is a living rock legend. The singer, bassist, actress, author, and radio host was born in Detroit in 1950 and began her career early in her family's band, "The Art Quatro Trio." At 14, she played with her sister Patti in the band The Pleasure Seekers and with her distinctive blend of leather, bass, and unbridled energy, she became one of the first women not just to participate in rock music, but to shape it. In 1973, she scored a worldwide No. 1 hit with "Can the Can."  This was followed by other classics such as "48 Crash," "Devil Gate Drive," and the US duet "Stumblin' In."

To date, she has sold over 55 million records. In addition to her music, Quatro has also been a successful actress, appearing in the cult series "Happy Days" and shining in London's West End in "Annie Get Your Gun." Since 1999, she has hosted her own radio programs on BBC Radio 2 and has received numerous awards. Nominated for the Sony Radio Award. Her versatility is also evident in theater projects, book publications, the documentary Suzi Q (2019), and collaborations with artists such as KT Tunstall. New studio album "Freedom" was released in 2026.
