Canadian musician, songwriter and producer Devin Townsend is heading back to Australia for a run of tour dates this October.

The Devin Townsend Project 2015 Australian tour will visit Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, and comes a year after Townsend himself visited Australia for a series of guitar clinics, offering up his skills to teach others how they can be almost as musically diverse as he is.

Fans can expect a career defining set from the muso, featuring songs from across his expansive catalogue – and with more than 30 albums under his belt, including his latest double-album Z, he has plenty of solid material to draw on.

Heading along on the tour will be Maryland progressive metal act Periphery, who’ll be showcasing their recently released double album Juggernaut: Alpha and Omega.

Check out tour dates and ticket information below.

UPDATE 27/07/15: Melbourne fans have reacted first and the Sunday 25th October show at 170 Russell is now completely sold out. Both artists have now agreed to perform a second and final Melbourne show on Monday 26th October at 170 Russell.

Tickets go on sale Thursday 30th July, 9am AEST. Limited tickets remain for Brisbane and Sydney shows. See updated details below.
