Pavlov’s Dog - 50th Anniversary Tour (Factory Theatre, Sydney)

For the first time ever, cult rock legends Pavlov's Dog are bringing their groundbreaking sound to Australia to celebrate their 50th Anniversary. Fronted by the unmistakable David Surkamp, the band burst onto the scene in 1973 with a record-breaking deal and their iconic debut Pampered Menial—a release that stunned the world with tracks like "Julia" and "Of Once and Future Kings."

Sharing stages with the likes of ELO, Kraftwerk, and Aerosmith, their mystique grew, even as radio struggled to categorise their genre-defying sound. After a hiatus, Surkamp revived the band in the 2000s, leading to internationally acclaimed performances and new releases.
Now, Australian fans will finally experience the legendary live show—packed with favourites like "Fast Gun" "Song Dance" and "Subway Sue."

Staying true to their audience, the Pavlov's Dog live experience includes all the familiar classics from those original albums… As well as the career-defining "Julia" "Fast Gun" "Trafalgar" "Natchez Trace" "Valkerie" "Theme From Subway Sue", and "Song Dance" are all present in the setlist. This is sure to be a show to thrill everyone who has ever held a precious copy of those glorious vinyl albums in their hands.

"The legend is alive! The band pocketed the audience in a second. Anyone who has ever heard this unique sound, backed by the unique voice, is totally addicted." - Festival Magazine
