Blur will perform in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth as well as their Splendour In The Grass headliner in July.

Blur were meant to tour Australia in 2014 for the Big Day Out but cancelled after a well publicized brewhaha with promoter AJ Maddah. Australia gets the make-up show for Splendour and now these few extras to boot.

Joining Blur on the Australian dates will be Jamie T.

Blur’s Australian tour will coincide with the release of the band’s eighth album ‘The Magic Whip’, due through Warner Music on April 27.
