Pat Benatar featuring Neil Giraldo
Presented by:
Dainty Consolidated Entertainment and Zaccaria Events
Special Guests: The Bangles
Four-time Grammy Award winning rocker PAT BENATAR is confirmed to tour Australia in October with ‘80s all-female band The Bangles.
More than three decades ago, PAT BENATAR began breaking rules and blazed a new trial for female rock stars. Songs such as "Love Is a Battlefield", "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", "We Live For Love", and "Heartbreaker” became anthems for a new attitude. At the dawn of MTV, BENATAR was the image of the female rocker for an entire generation of young woman, and the young men who loved them. That generation has grown up with her and others have walked down the path she helped pave.
Still going strong, BENATAR has been married for 28 years to guitarist, songwriter producer, collaborator and soul mate Neil Giraldo. The parents of two daughters, Pat and Neil have been touring almost non-stop for over three decades.
Most recently, BENATAR has been working on her long awaited autobiography "Between a Heart and a Rock Place" where she talks about her life, rock 'n' roll and how her generation changed music forever. Published by Harper Collins, it is due to be released in Australia in October.
Joining PAT BENATAR on tour in Australia is one of the most successful all-female bands of all time THE BANGLES.
Susanna Hoffs joined sisters Vicki and Debbie Peterson to form THE BANGLES in Los Angeles in December, 1980. The band was part of the Los Angeles Paisley Underground scene, which featured groups that played a mixture of 1960s-influenced folk-rock and jangle pop with a more modern garage band undertone.
TOUR DATE:
Fri 29 Oct - Perth Sandalford Estate, Swan Valley
