ELECTRIC SIX Refined And Ready To Ignite Australia

ELECTRIC SIX Refined And Ready To Ignite Australia

Interview by Angela Croudace
Electric Six are heading back to Australia, and according to frontman Dick Valentine, there’s “no reason not to do it.” Big, profitable shows, short flights between cities and a guaranteed good time keep the band returning Down Under.
This run promises refinement over chaos. “We’re respectful, polite… and we have a good time,” Valentine laughs, describing the live show as “drunk karaoke” backed by seriously tight musicianship. Expect the hits, including the ever-electric Gay Bar, plus deep cuts for diehards yelling requests.
Beyond the stage, it’s the simple pleasures that win them over: hotel television, great food, and elite pre-flight rituals at the Virgin Australia Lounge.
After 25 years, Electric Six remain shocked they’re still doing this, but Australia keeps proving why they should.
And if Valentine gets his way, fans will walk out of the final Melbourne show already demanding their return. In a world that feels increasingly chaotic, he half-jokes that Australia might be “our only hope.” Refined or ridiculous, Electric Six are ready to plug back in and let the absurdity roar.
