“Getting up close and physical is what live performance is all about. Being back on stage ... will be a blast,” the Midnight Oil frontman said.
The former Mittagong resident has created an all-star band ‘The Alter Egos’ for the tour. It includes Martin Rotsey from the Oils, Mark Wilson from Jet and Peter Luscombe of Rockwiz.
Acclaimed WA blues rock singer Abbe May will be the support act, before jumping in to complete ‘The Alter Egos’ lineup.
It comes as the second single from his inaugural solo album, A Version of Now, has been released to radio – “Great White Shark”.
Garrett said his latest song first surfaced when working with his Oils bandmates on new material, but it hit the cutting room floor.
“It was filed away in the back of my mind as a track I’d felt I’d like to revisit and ended up working well with what was happening in the studio sessions for my solo album,” Garrett said.
