American punk rock band Dead Kennedys return to Australia this September for their first tour in seven years, bringing their politically charged anthems and raw energy back to the stage. Known for their blistering live performances and sharp social commentary, the band will deliver a series of high-intensity shows across both countries.
Fans can expect a setlist featuring classics such as Holiday in Cambodia, California Über Alles, and Kill the Poor, alongside deeper cuts and fan favorites.
With a career spanning over four decades, Dead Kennedys remain a defining force in punk rock. Their satirical lyrics and unfiltered sound continue to resonate, challenging the status quo as they have since their formation in San Francisco in 1978.
The current lineup features original members East Bay Ray (guitar) and Klaus Flouride (bass), alongside vocalist Ron “Skip” Greer, who has fronted the band since 2008, and drummer Steve Wilson, who joined following the passing of longtime drummer D.H. Peligro in 2022.
Touring has long been central to Dead Kennedys’ identity, and their upcoming run through Australia continues their commitment to delivering high-energy performances that remain as urgent as ever.
