Drain Australian Tour 2027

The barrier between band and audience melts and everyone in the room becomes part of the show.</p><p>Formed in 2014 DRAIN&nbsp;came from a scene they effectively had to build themselves. Frontman Sammy Ciaramitaro began booking shows at a Santa Cruz coffee shop, helping build a local hardcore community from the ground up. That DIY mentality never left, resulting in a decade-long journey that has taken them to some of the biggest stages in the world.</p><p>Their 2020 debut&nbsp;<strong><em>California Cursed</em></strong> arrived just as the world shut down, but when live music returned, DRAIN exploded straight out of the gate and by 2022 they were headlining the opening night of&nbsp;<strong>Sound and Fury</strong> in front of 6000 people. What had begun as a bunch of friends making noise in NorCal rapidly became one of the era&#39;s defining hardcore bands.</p><p>2023&rsquo;s&nbsp;<strong><em>Living Proof</em></strong> went further, combining hardcore with the punk and thrash that has always lurked beneath the surface and extending their appeal across generations to those raised on the original collision of hardcore and thrash.</p><p>DRAIN have blazed through hundreds of shows around the world, headlining festivals, touring alongside hardcore heavyweights and taking their chaos far beyond the confines of the DIY scene, including arena tours with&nbsp;<strong>Blink-182</strong>.</p><p>But they&#39;ve never really been about the career milestones, they&#39;re about what happens when the show kicks off. The electricity coming off the stage and the room screaming back every word while bodies fly through the air. It&#39;s something Australian audiences have seen first hand with prior Drain visits and will experience again this February. &nbsp;</p>
