Brendan B. Brown, frontman of Wheatus, along with fellow member Gabrielle Sterbenz, will return to Australia for an exciting 14-date run of acoustic shows in January and February of 2025.
After a busy 2024, where Brendan visited Australia twice—once for acoustic shows with Art from Everclear in February and again with Wheatus for the Pandemonium Festival in April—he has become a cherished figure in the Australian music scene. The Wheatus sets at the festival were standout moments, expertly blending nostalgia with an exciting rock 'n' roll performance.
You likely know the iconic song "Teenage Dirtbag," Wheatus’ debut single released in 2000. It remains a cultural milestone nearly 25 years later, gaining renewed attention through the viral "Teenage Dirtbag photos" trend on TikTok, which has seen participation from over a million users, including celebrities like Madonna, Lady Gaga, and Mark Ruffalo. The hashtag #teenagedirtbag has been viewed over 2 billion times.
The timeless appeal of the song has led to its inclusion in popular media, featuring in Netflix’s “Big Mouth” and Disney’s “Cruel Summer.” It even re-entered the UK Top 40 charts in 2023. Brendan delivered a memorable performance at Madison Square Garden for iHeartRadio’s Jingle Ball, sharing the stage with pop sensation Jax.
Wheatus recently re-released their debut album as a 20-song expanded edition, which includes "lost" tracks from their history.
