Influential ’90-’00s rockers Magic Dirt are celebrating the 25th anniversary of their sophomore album ‘Young And Full Of The Devil’ with a massive national tour.
The band will perform ‘Young And Full Of The Devil’ from start to finish before performing a selection of their most loved hits – we shotgun ‘Dirty Jeans’, ‘Plastic Love Letter’, ‘Pace It’ and ‘Watch Out Boys’!
The album – which features such cuts as ‘She-Riff’, ‘Rabbit With Fangs’, ‘Babycakes’ and ‘Shrinko’ – has also been reissued on translucent purple vinyl and CD, as well as streaming platforms for the first time.
Spread across 4 months and nearly 20 live performances, Magic Dirt will visit all mainland capital cities on the run as well as stack of regional dates including Canberra, Central Coast, Launceston, Hobart, Byron Bay, Newcastle, Ballarat, and Geelong.
“We are MEGA EXCITED to announce our ‘Young And Full Of The Devil’ national tour!” shares the band.
“When it came time to the reissue, we really wanted to do something extra special for you all, so we thought, what about doing the album from start to finish?! F… yeah!
“We are super pumped to play all these songs, and we’ve been loving rehearsing them again, some of them for the first time in over 20 years.
“It’s brought back a lot of great memories and an awesome new energy to our playing.
“We’ll also be adding a selection of old faves for good measure. This will be HUGE guys, we can’t wait!”
After the release of ‘Young And Full Of The Devil’, which was a departure from their debut album ‘Friends In Danger’ in part because of the arrival of new guitarist Raul Sanchez, Magic Dirt toured UK/ Europe supporting The Heads and were the main support act for Silverchair’s Australian ‘Freak Show’ tour.
Tickets are on sale.
