The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees, ZZ Top, are set to bring their Texan swagger Down Under in 2025 with “The Elevation Tour.” Kicking off in April, the blues-rock legends will hit Adelaide, Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Auckland, and Wellington. Joining them as special guests are none other than George Thorogood & The Destroyers, ensuring the tour is steeped in rock ‘n’ roll grit and iconic anthems.

For over 50 years, ZZ Top has defined the blues-rock aesthetic. From their genre-defining tracks like “Sharp Dressed Man,” “Legs,” and “Gimme All Your Lovin’” to their unmistakable beards and spinning guitars, “That Little Ol’ Band From Texas” is more than a rock act—they’re a living, breathing cultural institution.

Joining them, George Thorogood & The Destroyers will unleash their gritty catalogue of hits, including “Bad To The Bone,” “I Drink Alone,” and “One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer.” With more than 15 million albums sold and over 8,000 live shows under their belts, they remain one of rock’s most relentless powerhouses.
