The Angels’ Brothers, Angels and Demons tour hits Penrith Panthers on Friday, November 24.
Special guests at the show will be Rose Tattoo and Hitmen DTK.
It has been an incredible year for The Angels. In what marks almost five decades of rock, the band celebrated with a tell-all biography, penned by industry alumnae Bob Yates, and scheduled an intimate run of book shows talking about the behind-the-scenes happening of the iconic band.
Then they returned to what they do best, playing live. Brothers, Angels and Demons will showcase audience favourites and some rarities.
“The Angels has always been about playing our music live,” said John Brewster. “This show will encompass some aspects that aren’t always a part of the show, like Rick [Brewster] playing some keyboards, some acoustic performances and the odd special guest. These shows will knock the fans out.”
Guests Rose Tattoo and Hitmen DTK have been a special part of The Angels’ story over the years.
“We have reached a moment in time when we are celebrating the whole journey,” said Brewster. “These bands are part of that journey. It just seems right to include them in our, and the fans’, celebration.”
Next year looks like shaping up as a big year for the band, too. It will mark 40 years since the release of its multi-platinum album, Face To Face, which will be a massive celebration in itself.
Looking back – and forward – Brewster said the band is all about the music and the fans, something that hasn’t changed in almost five decades and is paramount today.
“Put simply, there are five musicians who want to be there, who are all writing and recording new music for The Angels and who share a passion for the greatest rock experience ever – a live show,” he said.
“Rock on! We couldn’t have done it without the fans. The band has always been about doing it in front of people, writing a new song, and testing it on the audience… you know straight away whether the song works or not. We’re grateful for their part in the whole process. Vive les fans.”
The Angels are at Panthers, November 24 at 8pm. Tickets at www.theangels.com.au.
