“We’re not badging these shows as The Angels“, John Brewster explains… “But we are doing Angels songs.”

So, what’s the story?

Well, Brewster Brothers just love to play – it’s what they’ve been doing for the past five decades.

And they’re aware of the fact that The Angels singer, Dave Gleeson, has commitments with another great Australian band, The Screaming Jets.

While Dave is busy with the Jets, the Brewster Brothers thought they’d take the opportunity to perform some of the songs they’ve been itching to play.

It’s a gift for Angels fans – the songs they’ve been hoping to hear live for years now.

Now, these might be referred to as “rarities”, but these are songs that other bands would base their entire set around.

We’re talking tracks such as Dogs Are Talking, City Out Of Control, Eat City, Night Attack, No Exit, Straight Jacket, Who Rings The Bell and the first song that John Brewster wrote for the band, Shelter From The Rain.

And to celebrate this ground-breaking tour, the guys are launching a brand-new single – Night Attack #23, a 2023 re-imagining of the title track of the band’s 1981 album, this time round featuring The Angels drummer Nick Norton on lead vocals.

Nick will also be assuming lead vocal duties for the rarities tour, stepping out from behind the kit and singing and playing guitar (which will also enable Rick Brewster to play some additional keyboards). The band will welcome a guest drummer for each of these shows.

“Nick is an incredible musician and a fantastic singer.” John points out. Indeed, John has known Nick since he was at school – John produced Nick’s band GangAwry, who had a deal with Harry Vanda’s label, Flashpoint Music.

This Is Like No Other Show From The Angels Yet It Is Driven Right From The Core By Four Members Of The Band, Including A Trio Of Brewsters
