Happening throughout February.

More Abbey Road Live More Abbey Road Live

Back in August members of Jet, Powderfinger, You Am I and Spiderbait joined forces to celebrate the 50th anniversary of one of history’s most celebrated and influential albums of all time - The Beatles’ iconic Abbey Road.

Known as ARC and featuring Spiderbait's Kram, Jet's Mark Wilson, You Am I's Davey Lane and Powderfinger's Darren Middleton, the group will once again take their Abbey Road show on the road throughout February next year. 

They'll be joined throughout the tour by the likes of The Black Sorrows' Linda Bull, Even's Ash Naylor and Eagle & The Worm's James Fleming.

The shows will kick off at Caloundra Events Centre on Friday 14 February 2020 and then head to Brisbane, Toowoomba, Frankston, Bendigo, Albury, Canberra, Melbourne and Darwin. 

"After such a theatrical and charming hour, the band were understandably gleaming, having nailed Abbey Road in full, and to celebrate, they were determined to cut loose via a set of greatest hits, starting with Hey Bulldog," said The Music's Daniel Cribb of the group's Perth show earlier this year. 

"You don't know how much you need a version of Helter Skelter driven by Kram's trademark, gruff vocals and soaring backing vox from Bull until you hear it, and the same could be said for a lot of the other songs featured in the encore set, including a beautiful acoustic version of Yesterdayfrom Middleton and criminally fun rendition of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band alongside set closers Please Please Me and Love Me Do.
