Yellowcard will return to Australia to play three special springtime shows in September. The band will hit Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney and treat fans to hits such as "Ocean Avenue", "Only One", "Hang You Up", "Lights and Sounds" and "Sing For Me".

Perhaps we will be forgiven when we come back in September this year?! We will be playing all three shows with Heroes For Hire, and will have Nine Sons Of Dan ...

From the band:

“Australia! It has been 5 years since we played headlining shows on your giant, amazing island and for that, we do apologize. Perhaps we will be forgiven when we come back in September this year?! We will be playing all three shows with Heroes For Hire, and will have Nine Sons Of Dan in Brisbane, For Our Hero in Melbourne, and The Never Ever in Sydney. It has been too long, friends. Keep checking www.facebook.com/yellowcard for the ticket info and dates. See you in September!”

Joining Yellowcard on these dates will be Sydney punk favourites Heroes For Hire. No stranger to the touring van, Heroes have kicked off 2012 with a bang; touring nationally on the Soundwave Festival and announcing plans for their third album which will be recorded with Steve Klein from New Found Glory.

Don’t miss the chance to see Yellowcard and Heroes For Hire as they hit Australia for three very special dates.
