With their new album Black Dog Barking in stores, Airbourne are preparing to return home for a string of shows.
The Aussie expats should be in fine form when they reach our shores as they’ve scored slots at major European summer festivals including Rock im Park, Rock Am Ring, Metalfest, and Sonisphere. They’ll also play at the United Kingdom’s Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards, where they’re nominated for best live bands.
Airbourne will kick off their Aussie tour in their hometown of Warrnambool before they head up the East Coast. Plenty of Aussie states are missing out at this point, but as this is being called a teaser tour hopefully fans around the rest of the nation will be able to see Airbourne soon.

“A lot of thought and effort has gone into this record not only by the band, but by the production crew who worked countless hours, seven days a week, even through Christmas and New Year’s Eve to achieve the best possible performances, backed by real undying tones,” the band said in a statement.
