FOUNDING MEMBER OF AUSTRALIA’S COLD CHISEL, IAN MOSS, ANNOUNCES FIRST EVER UK BAND TOUR

One of Australia’s best guitarists, Ian Moss, is heading to the UK in June, for a run of dates with his band. Part of Australian rock history, Mossy has been mesmerizing audiences for well over 40 years but this is the first time he will bring a full band to the UK.

The tour will see him playing dates in Birmingham, Nottingham, London, Newcastle, Manchester & Glasgow. Tickets are on sale now https://ianmoss.com.au/tour or from the venues.

“I have toured the UK in the past in solo acoustic mode, and the audiences have always been incredible. We planned on bringing my band in 2020, so I’m excited to finally bring them in June, which will be the first time I have played electric in the UK since doing a handful of shows with my other band, Cold Chisel, in 2012. I can’t wait to come back!”

Moss’s band contains some of the finest musicians in Australia with Clayton Doley – Keys (Joe Bonamassa, Jimmy Barnes), Zoe Hauptmann – Bass (Neil Finn, Paul Kelly, Missy Higgins) and Kerry Jacobson – Drums (Dragon, Mondo Rock) Moss, who was born and raised in Alice Springs and who was enthralled by the genius of Jeff Beck, was voted as Australia’s best guitarist, ahead of both AC\DC’s Angus and Malcom Young and has released six incredible and dynamic studio albums – The #1 and multi-platinum, Matchbook, Worlds Away, Petrolhead, Let’s all Get Together, Soul on West 53rd and the self-titled Ian Moss and the 2020’s brilliant album Live.

2019 saw the 30th Anniversary of the iconic and landmark album Matchbook. The album was released on August 1, 1989, and peaked at #1 on the ARIA Albums Chart. It remained in the Top 10 for an amazing 14 weeks, shipping more than 200,000 copies in the first 12 months alone. The album went on to win Album of the Year, Best Male Artist and Breakthrough Artist – Album, Breakthrough Artist – Single and Song of the Year (shared with Don Walker) for ‘Tucker’s Daughter’ at the ARIA Music Awards in 1990.

Over the years, Australia has produced some great musical talents that have blown audiences away and without a doubt Ian Moss is one of them.
