Wheatus frontman and incredibly nice guy, Brendan B. Brown along with his better half, fellow Wheatus member Gabrielle Sterbenz will return to Australia for an epic 14 date run of acoustic shows through January and February 2025.
After a whirlwind 2024 that saw Brendan down under twice, once in February for acoustic shows with Art from Everclear and again with Wheatus in April for the Pandemonium Festival, BBB has become a beloved fixture in the Aussie music scene. The Wheatus sets at Pandemonium were one of the standout moments of the day, finding that perfect balance between stoking the fires of nostalgia and putting on a killer rock ‘n’ roll show.
You definitely know THAT song, but for those needing a reminder about the enduring magic of Teenage Dirtbag, Wheatus’ iconic debut single, released back in 2000, remains a cultural touchstone nearly 25 years later.  The viral “Teenage Dirtbag” trend on TikTok has attracted over a million participants, including celebs like Madonna, Lady Gaga, and Mark Ruffalo, and the hashtag #teenagedirtbag has been viewed over 2 billion times!
The song’s timeless appeal has also been featured in Netflix’s ‘Big Mouth’, Disney’s ‘Cruel Summer’, and in 2023, it incredibly re-entered the UK Top 40 charts!  The buzz culminated in a performance at Madison Square Garden for iHeartRadio’s Jingle Ball, where Brendan sang alongside pop sensation Jax.
Wheatus recently re-released their debut album in an epic 20-song expanded edition, offering fans “lost” tracks from over the years.
Brendan and Gabrielle, will soon be hitting those long open Australian roads together, dirt bagging it across the nation with an acoustic set that is perfect for these stripped-back, intimate shows across our great southern land.
So grab two tickets and don’t say maybe…
