It’ll be the first visit to Australia shores for Black Francis and co. (whoever ‘and co.’ might comprise by the time they get here) since 2010, when they toured the Doolittle record. They’ll play nightly from Friday May 23 – Monday May 26.
Also announced on the Vivid LIVE schedule at the Opera House are the Australian Chamber Orchestra in collaboration with The Presets (Sunday May 25 and Thursday May 29); EDM pioneer Giorgio Moroder, who’ll make his Australian debut on Sunday June 1; and Pet Shop Boys, playing Friday June 6 – Sunday June 8.
