Pearl Jam Expands Australian Stadium Tour Following ‘Overwhelming Response’


Additional shows are locked in for Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium and Sydney’s Giants Stadium.

Just 10 days after the rock legends announced a major global tour in support of their forthcoming studio album Dark Matter, Pearl Jam adds two stadium dates to their Australia lap. Vedder, Jeff Ament, Stone Gossard, Mike McCreedy and Matt Cameron will then head over to Europe for June and July, return to the States in late August, and bring matters to a halt in November with two shows in New Zealand and the five Australia concerts. Produced by Andrew Watt, Dark Matter was “born in just three weeks,” according to a statement from reps, as the band mates wrote and recorded in a “burst of inspiration.” The “musicians faced one another in the same space and communicated sonically at the highest level,” the message continues.
