It is said that the Hard-Ons have crossed the Rubicon. Having formed back in 1982 and having a legendary and impressive back catalogue of releases, the Hard-Ons have also been a fantastically explosive live band. The Hard-Ons are ever-changing and evolving, having three albums under the belt with long-time friend Tim Rogers, the driving force behind the chart-busting, platinum-selling and award winning power-pop act YOU AM I, to a new edition featuring hardcore punk royalty, Jerry A of Poison Idea fame at the helm, or of course the classic, explosive three-piece, supercharged punk – metal – power-pop hybrid. Whichever form they take, the Hard-Ons are more infectious than ever. They have a vast array of great tunes from the history of their band to call upon. They move forward. They will play in your town. Following up to their recent 2024 album I Like You A Lot Getting Older, and 40th anniversary tours of Australia, Japan and Europe, the Hard-Ons show no ends to their activity and creativity of blistering pop and punk nuggets as only this genre- busting band can produce. The Hard-Ons: go and catch them live. Buy their album I Like You A Lot Getting Older. This is a heritage band that is actually about to hit their peak. And beyond.  Support by Wöolworths\\Flushot + Legal Noise ---------------------------------------- ACKNOWLEDGEMENT We acknowledge and respect the Palawa people as the traditional and ongoing owners of the skies, land, and water of Lutruwita.
