TOUR ANNOUNCE – Including Shellharbour
February 12, 2020
Thirty years has not slowed down The Screaming Jets and their hunger to entertain their fans. In May and June of this year, the band will take a well-earned break from recording their ninth studio album to embark on their ‘SUNSHINE AND HURRICANES’ tour. A selection of regional shows around Oz, into places they didn’t reach during 2019 with their Dirty Thirty tour.
Gleeso and the boys will perform an epic set that transports you back to the early 1990’s, complete with an acoustic element demonstrating the depth of talent this tricenarian rock band has at their disposal and has fans begging for more on social media.
“Best I’ve seen this freakin’ band since 1993…. Rock On!”
“Absolutely awesome show last night. You guys seem to get “better” every year we see you.”
“Best rock band in Oz. Lost count of how many times I’ve seen them in 30 years but the Dirty 30 show was absolutely one of the best. One of the best set lists…went off like a frog in a sock. Oh, n Pauly’s solo was awesome.”
“From the first time I saw the Jets back in Jan ’91 at The Palace in St Kilda, they’ve always delivered the goods. Great show last night.”

The ‘Sunshine and Hurricanes’ tour will feature a bunch of young and notable bands that the Jets are keen to showcase to their dedicated fans. The band have chosen to pick up local artists in each state, giving these up and coming outfits a chance to demonstrate their musical prowess.
As Dave Gleeson aptly states ‘young bands today don’t get the chance to cut their teeth live like we did.. As ‘elder statesmen of the rock biz, this is our chance to give back and help a new gen of bands get in front of a bunch of dedicated rock fans..’
Joining The Screaming Jets as a permanent member of the band will be drummer Cameron McGlinchey. Cam joined the band in 2019, and comes from a remarkable musical pedigree but most notably came to The Jets’ attention when his latest musical project, psych-infused hard rock band, Palace Of The King supported the boys on several tours over the last few years.
