MIDNIGHT OIL MAKE UP FOR CANCELLED SHOWS DURING FINAL LEG OF WORLD TOUR 

Midnight Oil announced today that they will stage new concerts in three Australian cities where they had to cancel gigs at very short notice earlier this year – Darwin, Cairns and Canberra. 

With a varying line up on each show, these new dates and the existing Swan Valley show feature a swathe of talented special guests – Busby Marou, Emily Wurramara (solo), Goanna, King Stingray, Leah Flanagan, Moaning Lisa and Stephen Pigram.

 “We were very frustrated that COVID cost us two gigs up north and that Canberra safety officials then pulled the plug on that show due to lightning”, said Midnight Oil frontman, Peter Garrett. 

“We said at the time that we would do everything possible to make it up to everyone in those places who missed out, so now we’re making good on that promise.”

 Following their interrupted, but acclaimed, Australian dates in support of their latest ARIA #1 album, the band took Resist: The Final Tour across North America throughout June for a memorable series of shows. 

They are currently playing the tour’s European leg which includes iconic venues like London’s Roundhouse and an already sold-out performance at the famous Olympia in Paris. 

As recently announced, this closing leg of the “Resist” tour will also include two special festival appearances in remote and regional Australia; The Mundi Mundi Bash near Broken Hill and a reprise of the legendary “Stompem Ground” in Broome (see info below). 

These newly announced Resist: The Final Tour shows will kick off at Munro Martin Parklands, Cairns with special guest Busby Marou on Thursday 25 August.
