Description:
Australia’s favourite electro-pop rockers The Rogue Traders have announced their biggest ever Australian tour for April/May.
In news that is sure to delight their legions of fans, the band is set to play an initial 21 shows all around Australia in their first major tour in more than 18 months – with more dates to be announced soon!
James Ash, Cameron McGlinchey, Danny Spencer and Natalie Bassingthwaighte, fresh from her very successful TV venture hosting the hit series “So You Think You Can Dance”, will hit the road playing small and large regional centres, as well as capital cities, in one of the most ambitious tours undertaken by a major Australian band this year. The shows will be the ONLY chance to see the band in concert this year.
Rogue Traders are particularly keen to visit regional areas that have given stellar support to their records and where they have never played before. The band is refreshed and ready to unleash new material from their platinum album ‘Better In The Dark’, plus all the hits from their 2005 smash ‘Here Come The Drums’.
Two years of solid touring behind ‘Here Come The Drums’ has turned the Rogues into a formidable live act, and Miss Bassingthwaighte into an infectious, vampish frontwoman exhilarating audiences everywhere. “The audience is so vibrant and they feed you as much as you feed them,” Natalie says. “The fans get dressed up in my costumes which adds to the whole fun element of the show!” Natalie has a stunning new set of on stage costumes ready to go, so be prepared to be wowed!
To coincide with the tour, the third single from ‘Better In The Dark’ titled ‘What You’re On’ is at media from March 15 accompanied by another must-see video. The song is a band favourite and considered by many to be one of the album’s absolute stand-outs.
The ‘Better In The Dark’ tour will give the band the chance to build on the foundations laid by ‘Here Comes The Drums’. The album sold four times platinum (more than 300,000 units), spent 80 weeks in the ARIA Top 100, garnered four ARIA nominations and spawned five massive hits in ‘Voodoo Child’, ‘Way To Go!’, ‘Watching You’, ‘We’re Coming Home’ and ‘In Love Again’.
So with a swag of their old favourites and the infectious new songs being played for the first time, no wonder the Rogues can’t wait to get crackin’!

They were so good at the under 18's. I got to sing on stage with Nat and the band it was awsum!!!!!!
sam
the Rogue Traders under 18s sound check concert was very dissapointing for the amount of money it cost. it was more of an optus sound check than an visit to see the rogue traders.
Raven

I cant think of a single TV star who went into music and brought any talent with them.
