The Necks – Four Decades of Musical Alchemy

Event

One of the world's greatest cult bands, renowned for their improvisational prowess and hypnotic live performances, The Necks celebrate four decades of their elusive musical alchemy in 2027 with their biggest Australian tour ever.

The 12-date tour from January to March coincides with the release of Surf, their 24th album, out soon on double LP and CD. Building on their acclaimed double releases Unfold (2017) and Travel (2023), Surf sees The Necks offer four sides of 21 minutes each, improvised in the studio with minimal overdubbing. Three pieces are built upon propulsive grooves and the fourth is more mysterious and intriguing, all set against the haunting sound of a vintage harmonium.
