In early 2026, the beautiful chaos that is BETTER LOVERS, comprised of Greg Puciato (vocals), Jordan Buckley (guitar), Will Putney (guitar, producer), Steve Micciche (bass) and Clayton “Goose” Holyoak (drums), will head down under for their Aussie live debut in January, joined by special guests SPLIT CHAIN and BLIND GIRLS. And today, BETTER LOVERS have unveiled their local support acts for Brisbane, Newcastle, Sydney, Melbourne, Belgrave and Adelaide.
Opening in Brisbane, Yugambeh punk and hardcore collective GLITTER STRIP will wield their trademark intensity, while Newcastle will showcase local legends TIRED MINDS and their collision of post hardcore, punk and emotional might. Wollongong-hailing metal act TOTALLY UNICORN will bring their high-octane live energy and party vibes to Sydney, while metallic hardcore group GRAVITATE will ignite proceedings in Melbourne armed with grooves and relentless riffage. Blackened postmetal heavies RUN will offer a feast of brutality, atmospherics and oscillating dynamics opening in Belgrave, and Adelaide will kick off in explosive fashion with HAMMER 618 brandishing riffs and caustic mayhem.
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!
