The Selecter Announce First Ever Aussie Tour

The Selecter Announce First Ever Aussie Tour




Written by Esther Semo on 20 July 2012

Seminal British 2-Tone outfit, The Selecter will be hitting our shores this November for the first time.  This most vital and visceral of British bands will bring their infectious musical message of multiculturalism and hope around the country and are guaranteed to  please crowds with their fusion of ska-pop-reggae.

 In 2010, Pauline Black reunited with the band’s co-singer, the charismatic Gaps Hendrickson known for his incisive toasting on the mic, to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of their classic debut album. Since then, this refreshed and revitalised 8-piece line-up has been the recipients of a wave of critical and popular acclaim for their live performances which maintain the same energy, groove and passion.

Australia finally has the opportunity to witness one of the true originals of the 2-Tone era – get in early because this is one show you absolutely do not want to miss!


BRISBANE: Thursday November  29th @ The Zoo

MELBOURNE: Friday November 30th @ Corner Hotel + special guests Strange Tenants

SYDNEY: December 1st @ Factory Theatre
