Spiderbait

Legendary Aussie rockers Spiderbait today announce they will return to stages around the country this July, to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of their iconic 1996 album Ivy & The Big Apples. Very special guests Custard, Magic Dirt, The Meanies and Tumbleweed will join the party on select dates, as emerging Melbourne rockers The Gnomes warm audiences at all shows. 

 Spiderbait last toured in 2024 to widespread acclaim to mark the 20th Anniversary of their seminal album Tonight Alright, playing some of their best shows ever. 

“a show of epic proportions” – Xpress Mag

 “A truly remarkable, energetic, solid, rock ‘n’ roll show and milestone for the band.” – Australian Musician

Widely regarded as a defining moment in Australian alternative rock, Spiderbait’s third studio album, Ivy & The Big Apples, marked a major breakthrough for the band. The record debuted in the ARIA Top 3, went Double Platinum, and stayed in the Top 50 for nearly a year — a testament to its enduring impact and the strength of singles like ‘Calypso’ and ‘Hot Water & Milk’. 

 Featuring standout track ‘Buy Me a Pony’, which became the first Australian song to take the crown in triple j’s prestigious Hottest 100, the record captured the raw, youthful spirit of the time while pushing the boundaries of the local music scene. A fearless mix of punk, pop and alternative rock, the album cemented Spiderbait as one of Australia’s most important bands of the 90’s.

Australian rock ‘n roll royalty, and with a catalogue of music that’s distinctive and uncompromising, Spiderbait’s anticipated Ivy & The Big Apples 30th Anniversary Tour will see the band playing songs from their seminal album plus favourites from their extensive catalogue – Don’t miss out!
