Icehouse to tour for Great Southern Land 40th anniversary

Australian rock legends Icehouse have been forced to postpone their Brisbane show as lead Iva Davies recovers from Covid.

A statement from the band and tour promoter Live Nation said they have regretfully postponed the Great Southern Land Concert Series show at the Brisbane Riverstage this Saturday.

Lead singer Iva Davies has tested positive to Covid.

“Despite getting good care from my doctor since I was diagnosed with Covid-19, my condition hasn‘t improved … the effects of the infection are lasting a lot longer than I hoped,” he said.

“The difficulties I am having with breathing mean that I cannot sing for the duration of an Icehouse performance.”

He added the entire band were disappointed by the postponement.

“We have a long history with the venue – it has always been a special venue for its location plus the Brisbane crowds are always welcoming,” Davies said.

The November 26 concert has been rescheduled to Saturday, 18 February 2023, with the full line-up for this new date to be announced soon.
