Ben Ottewell & Ian Ball (Gomez) On Tour This September

Gomez fans rejoice! BEN OTTEWELL & IAN BALL from the infamous British band from Southport are returning to Australia this September.

Following a successful run of the country as a duo in 2022, Ben & Ian are back with new songs plus all the favourites from the Gomez years.

As a band, Gomez have toured the world countless times and have amassed a huge loyal fan base. The critically acclaimed band won a Mercury Music Prize for their 1998 debut album Bring It On 25 years ago, kicking off their huge career which included 11 albums and touring across the globe.

As a duo, Ben and Ian’s joyful and harmonious performance brings together a bit of blues, indie-pop and folk-rock into a music-lovers feast fit for all ears.

BT from Love Police said: “Really? They’re coming back again?? Love those guys. I seriously fall in love with the music all over again every time I see them. They always have held a special place in our musical hearts being friends and partners for over 20 years now. It’s great to continue to share that with the good folks who go to the shows. Come and reminisce and just buy them drinks.”

Supporting Ben and Ian on their 15 date Australian tour is LA artist BUDDY and the duo’s longtime touring pal who brings his brilliant and beautiful songs filled with lyrical wit and wisdom to the Australian stages.

Featuring intimate live performances filled with an array of work spanning the 20+ year career of both Ben and Ian’s solo work and the music of their iconic band Gomez, audiences may even find themselves singing along to a cover or two.
