Pearl Jam Reveals Local Opening Acts for Anticipated Australian & New Zealand Tour
With the excitement building for Pearl Jam’s much-anticipated comeback in Australia, the legendary Seattle band has announced the local acts that will join them for their 2024 Dark Matter tour. In addition to Pearl Jam and special guests Pixies, the lineup features singer-songwriter Liam Finn, the rising rock band Teen Jesus And The Jean Teasers, and the iconic punk group Cosmic Psychos.
Liam Finn, now a full member of Crowded House, will open the Auckland shows on November 8 and 10 as part of their upcoming album Gravity Stairs.
Teen Jesus And The Jean Teasers will perform at the Gold Coast on November 13, followed by shows in Melbourne on November 18 and Sydney on November 23.
Cosmic Psychos will support the stadium shows in Melbourne on November 16 and Sydney on November 21.
The excitement was palpable when Teen Jesus And The Jean Teasers shared their thoughts on social media, declaring, “Get fucked, it doesn’t get more Eddie Vedder than this. See you in Gold Coast, Melbourne, and Sydney!”
This tour marks Pearl Jam’s first visit to Australia in ten years, following their last appearance at the Big Day Out in 2014. They are on the road to promote their 12th studio album, Dark Matter, which Mojo praised for its vibrant sound, likening it to “hitting like a triple espresso.”
