Australia, the wait is over: prepare to witness the beautiful chaos that is 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒 next year, with the iconic hardcore group, consisting of Greg Puciato (vocals), Jordan Buckley (guitar), Will Putney (guitar, producer), Steve Micciche (bass) and Clayton "Goose" Holyoak (drums), primed to make their Aussie live debut in January 2026, joined by special guests 𝐒𝐏𝐋𝐈𝐓 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐈𝐍 and 𝐁𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐃 𝐆𝐈𝐑𝐋𝐒.
With the amalgamation of some of the scene's most prolific musicians rallying together over a shared vision of creative fearlessness and relentless energy, 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒 were always bound to be something magic and memorable; but with each new release the group, bringing together members of Every Time I Die, formerly The Dillinger Escape Plan, and Fit For An Autopsy, have organically and collectively evolved into something that borders on otherworldly.
In 2023, 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒 bared their creative fangs, releasing their acclaimed debut EP God Made Me An Animal, before shifting into a whole new stratosphere via their 2024 debut full-length Highly Irresponsible. A cutting-edge, bold and creatively fearless masterpiece, Highly Irresponsible spans gritty guitars and explosive melodies (A White Horse Covered In Blood) through to the group's take on an epic power ballad (At All Time) and moments of maniacal metalcore, balanced with searing emotional dynamics (Love As An Act Of Rebellion).
With millions of streams under the belts in a short space of time and an ever-growing worldwide fanbase, 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒 have most recently been tearing up stages across the globe as headliners, as well as onstage at the likes of Aftershock, Furnace Fest, and Graspop. And in 2026 the living legends will make their hotly-anticipated Australian debut in what is guaranteed to be a tour for the heavy history books.
Also set to make their Australian debut in 2026, British genre chameleons 𝐒𝐏𝐋𝐈𝐓 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐈𝐍 will be bringing their exciting mix of shoegaze, post hardcore and nu metal down under. Forming in 2023, 𝐒𝐏𝐋𝐈𝐓 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐈𝐍 erupted into view via their debut single Get Inside, signed with Epitaph Records in 2024, and unveiled their debut album motionblur last month. The self-described "dreamo" group are renowned for their visceral and immersive live sets, and have previously performed with A Day To Remember, Counterpart, Bob Vylan Silverstein and many more.
Gold Coast DIY screamo heroes 𝐁𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐃 𝐆𝐈𝐑𝐋𝐒 have been fortifying their trademark blend of dark chaos and cathartic hardcore since forming back in 2013. Channeling hardcore, screamo and everything in between into their magnetic creative output, 𝐁𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐃 𝐆𝐈𝐑𝐋𝐒 most recently unleashed their third studio album An Exit Exists in 2024, garnering praise for their razor-sharp delivery, intensity and raw talent. Whether performing with La Dispute, Touchè Amorè and Militarie Gun, or taking crowds by storm around the world, this is emotional heavy music done entirely right.
It's not hyperbole - it would be Highly Irresponsible to miss the first ever 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒 tour on Australian soil in 2026, don't miss your chance to kick off 2026 with a bang, 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒-style!
