As fans themselves, Alexisonfire hand picked Ontario, Canada’s The Dirty Nil to join them on the tour and introduce the punk rock trio to the Australian market.

• The concert ticket pre-sale begins Thursday 11th August at 10am local time.

Alexisonfire is consistently hailed as one of the most influential bands ever to emerge from Canada. The band released four hugely successful and critically acclaimed albums between 2002 and 2009, amassing a legion of devoted fans across the world. The band’s self-titled debut dropped in 2002 followed by 2004’s ‘Watch Out’, 2006’s ‘Crisis’, and ‘Old Crows/Young Cardinals’ in 2009. They have since released limited edition vinyl box sets along with the album, ‘Live At Copps’ featuring the final show of their 2012 10-year anniversary run, recorded on home turf in Hamilton, Ontario.
 
Multi-award winners in their native Canada, Alexisonfire have topped sales charts across North America and achieved a Top 20 ARIA Chart debut in Australia with 2009’s ‘Old Crows/Young Cardinals’. The band has multiple Gold and Platinum albums under their belt, have graced the covers of some of the world’s most respected music magazines including Kerrang!, Blunt Magazine and Big Cheese, and have taken in main stage slots at some of the world’s premier music festivals, from the UK’s Reading and Leeds to Riot Fest (US + Canada), Fuji Rock Festival (Japan), Soundwave Festival and more.
