PICTURE THIS ANNOUNCE RETURN TO AUSTRALIA IN 2026 FOR A HEADLINE TOUR
Currently in the country supporting Tom Grennan on his Australian tour, one of Ireland’s biggest live acts PICTURE THIS have today announced a return tour in 2026, headlining shows across Australia. Today’s tour announce coincides with new music from the band, which fans can expect to hear live at next year’s shows.
In Ireland, Picture This are superstars; their debut single ‘Take My Hand’ is a veritable anthem, the only band ever to sell out 5 successive 3Arenas (Dublin’s equivalent to London’s O2), and the 4 huge arena shows in Belfast and Dubin in December 2025 sold out in less than one hour with 50k tickets sold.
It all began in 2015, a young Ryan Hennessy from the small town of Athy, County Kildare, Ireland, recorded a video of his song ‘Take My Hand’ on his iPhone. The video was uploaded to Facebook and YouTube and amassed over 4 million views across all platforms. Receiving a message from a drummer, also from Athy, Jimmy Rainsford; saying they had to play together, it sparked a journey that led to the band’s debut gig at the Grand Social venue in Dublin, which they sold out in under 30 minutes. To meet the demand, the gig was moved to The Academy, which has a capacity of 850 people. The band became the first act to sell out the venue for their debut gig.

Described by Kerrang! magazine as “better than a Led Zeppelin reunion” and hailed by Warner Music as “Europe’s best tribute to Led Zeppelin,” LETZ ZEP has earned its reputation as the world’s premier tribute to the greatest rock band of all time.

With uncanny musical precision and the “tight but loose” energy that defined Zeppelin’s legendary concerts, LETZ ZEP offers fans a chance to relive the magic. As audiences often say: “Close your eyes, and it’s Led Zeppelin themselves.”

Catch your Breath
May 24th
Texas modern melodic rockers Catch Your Breath have announced their long-awaited debut Australian headline tour this May, bringing with them a catalogue that has already amassed over 360 million global streams and counting
Since the release of their acclaimed debut album Shame On Me (2023), Catch Your Breath have rapidly evolved into one of modern rock’s most compelling breakout acts. The record spawned the Gold-certified single "Dial Tone", a viral hit that propelled the band onto the global stage. The track, which is now a cornerstone of their live set, has helped push the band’s streaming numbers into the hundreds of millions, with fans flocking to catch their captivating live shows all over the world.
Multiple tracks from Shame On Me also landed in heavy rotation on SiriusXM Octane. From there, relentless touring alongside bands like Imminence, Ice Nine Kills, Dayseeker and Falling In Reverse cemented their reputation as a band who thrive onstage as much as they do on record. Catch Your Breath are currently on tour across North America supporting fellow Texan heavyweights, Nothing More.
The quartet have carved out a sound that combines a unique blend of synth soundscaping elements, imaginative production, and refined songwriting. This allows them to create a powerful experience without losing any of their hardness and originality. Late last year the band kicked off their next chapter with new single "Dark", and recently followed it up with "Lost", both out now via Thriller Records. The singles serve as an early glimpse into the evolution of Catch Your Breath.
Already seasoned performers on major stages, they have played at festivals including Sonic Temple and Welcome To Rockville. In 2026, they plan to perform for fans at Nova Rock, Impericon Festival, Rock am Ring, Download Festival, Sonic Temple, Welcome to Rockville and Rock for People!

The Superjesus
June 5th
Alt-rock legends The Superjesus are set to bring their seminal sophomore album ‘Jet Age’ across the country for a special 25 year anniversary tour in June 2026, playing the record in full as well as a selection of their greatest hits.
The band have been busy over the last year, releasing their self titled fourth studio album in March 2025 to widespread acclaim - finding themselves at #10 on the ARIA Australian Chart more than 20 years after the release of their third LP ‘Rock Music’ (2002).
‘Jet Age’ came at a pivotal moment for the band in 2000; following the release of their breakthrough debut album ‘Sumo’ in 1998, the band were shot into spotlight - playing packed out crowds at the Big Day Out, touring relentlessly at home and overseas, and even picking up a few ARIAs along the way. All the strain and pressure put on the band eventually led to some internal turmoil, with founding guitarist Chris Tennent leaving the band and Tim Henwood taking his place.
