Legendary hip-hop crew The Wu-Tang Clan are heading to Australia this summer.

The influential group will play three headline shows on the East Coast in February, playing arena venues in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane.

The tour, which is being presented by the group behind New Year'e Eve festival Beyond The Valley, will be the first Australian visit since 2011.



It is not confirmed which members - such as Ghostface Killah, Method Man, RZA and Raekwon - will be making the trip over yet, but expect a solid contingent of clansmen to appear to perform cuts from classic debut Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers).

They are unlikely to play any numbers from Once Upon A Time In Shaolin - the one-of-a-kind limited edition album/artefact that was sold to controversial pharmaceuticals CEO Martin Shkreli for a reported $2 million.

The Wu-Tang Clan play Melbourne on February 23, Sydney on February 24 and Brisbane on February 26.
