Bikini Kill: ‘Sugar’
The tour marks Bikini Kill’s first run around Australia in 25 years, following their reformation in 2019. Aside from their headline shows, they’ll be playing Golden Plains festival in Victoria – alongside acts like Carly Rae Jepsen, Four Tet and Angel Olsen – and Perth Festival.
The band – Frontwoman Kathleen Hanna, drummer Tobi Vail and bassist Kathi Wilcox – will also appear in a panel discussion with writer Marieke Hardy at Sydney’s All About Women festival at the Sydney Opera House on Sunday, 12th March.
A couple of shows have been added to the tour as some dates have recently sold out – Bikini Kill will now do two shows at Perth Festival and an extra date at the Forum.
