The Preatures are back! The beloved Sydney-based band has announced a reunion in celebration of the 10th anniversary of their debut album, Blue Planet Eyes. And they’re doing it in style with a limited-edition vinyl release and an intimate reunion show at The Lansdowne Hotel on Tuesday, 10 December—the same venue where they played their first-ever gig.
For longtime fans, this is your chance to bask in the nostalgia of an album that defined an era. And if that’s not enough, they’ve sweetened the deal with a reimagined version of their breakout hit, Is This How You Feel?—proving the track still has all the spark we fell in love with a decade ago.
In a heartfelt note to fans, the band shared, “We dedicated our entire young lives to this group and the music we made, falling in love with playing to crowds, however big and brash or small and sweaty. It was insane, and we loved it all.”
But what does this reunion mean for the future? Even they’re not entirely sure, saying, “We don’t know exactly what’s going to happen, but we can’t wait to relight that fire and remind ourselves what a privilege it is to play for you.”
What’s On:
- Limited-edition Blue Planet Eyes vinyl: Available for pre-order now.
- Reimagined Is This How You Feel?: A fresh take on their iconic track.
- Reunion show: The Lansdowne, Tuesday 10 December.
Tickets for the reunion show go on sale at 12pm AEDT on Tuesday, 3 December, and you can bet they’ll sell out fast. Head to their official website to grab yours before they’re gone.
Whether you were there for their sweaty pub gigs back in the day or fell in love with their electrifying sound through your headphones, this is your moment to celebrate a band that left an indelible mark on Aussie music.
Stay unruly!
