As well as shows in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide, the band are also preparing to reissue their entire back catalogue on vinyl, deluxe CD and iTunes, screen a short film tracing their 20 year evolution and release a book titled Paper Trail which provides a visual history of the band’s career.
The 20 Year Anniversary Tour in July/August is Something For Kate’s most ambitious series of performances to date, and the biggest events the band have staged. For the first time in their history, they will play two sets each night, covering all facets of their career: hits, B-sides, rarities and all points in between. Setting the tone for the evening at the beginning of every show will be a short film by Callum Preston tracing the band’s history from 1994 to the current day. At the conclusion of each show, the band will head to the merch desk to meet fans, and sign the accumulated memories of twenty years.
Since 1994, when a young three-piece took to the stage of Melbourne’s Punters Club to play their first ever show the band have amassed over half a million album sales, played countless full-house tours and added multiple awards to their shelves, becoming one of this country’s most celebrated, fiercely loved and significant acts of the past two decades.
Update: a second show has been added.
Update #2: a third show has been added.
