The latest run, Nov. 2-16 through Live Nation, includes three indoor shows and three winery stops.

The EDM touring business continues strongly. New York house legend Todd Terry returns for four club shows through Illusive Presents. Terry’s 2012 tour was a sellout, and he returned in 2013 to open for Chic with additional sold-out headliners of his own. The latest run is Oct. 31 to Nov. 2. Future Music brings high-profile Welsh-born DJ and producer Sasha back for four club stops Nov. 1-3.

Future Music also confirmed Michigan DJ and producer Seth Troxler for eight sets Nov. 14-23. He takes in a mix of raves, pool parties and festivals.

In the 1980s Cheap Trick and Aussie hard rock band The Angels played dates together in the United States and Europe. When The Angels’ gear was stolen in Chicago on a separate tour, Cheap Trick lent them their gear. The two acts reunite downunder early 2015, marking the U.S. band’s first visit since 2008. They co-headline five A Day On The Green winery shows Feb. 7-22 through Roundhouse Entertainment on a bill with Aussie rock bands Baby Animals, The Superjesus, and the Choirboys.

The headliners do indoor shows, at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre and Melbourne’s Forum Theatre with the Choirboys through Frontier Touring.

Sandra Bernhard makes her fourth visit to Australia, with her Sandyland show staged at four theatres March 6-13 through Live Nation.

Live Nation brings Vancouver pop rock group Marianas Trench to the region. The band visits New Zealand for the first time with a club show in Auckland Oct. 30 before five club and theatre dates Nov. 1-6.

The Matches extend their 10th anniversary tour of debut album E. Von Dahl Killed The Locals with five club dates Jan. 9-16. These were booked by Select Touring and Taperjean Touring.

After extensive touring through the United States and Europe, Australian/U.S. band The Dead Daisies brings the riffs back to Australia and New Zealand. The band takes in nine dates Nov. 25 to Dec. 7. New Zealand’s The Datsuns return for Valve with nine club appearances Dec. 4-14.

Grizzly Bear found a ready audience in Australia, so it is no surprise that its former frontman, Daniel Rossen, returns February for Handsome Tours for his first solo foray, taking in clubs in Sydney and Melbourne in mid-February.
