Alt-rock outfit Spin Doctors have cancelled their upcoming tour of Australia and New Zealand.
The band were meant to make the trip down under this month for a run of shows celebrating the 35th anniversary of their 1991 debut album, Pocket Full of Kryptonite. The album topped the Australian and New Zealand album charts and made it #3 on the US Billboard 200, with the singles ‘Two Princes’ and ‘Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong’ propelling Spin Doctors into the music stratosphere.
Tour promoters Destroy All Lines announced the news on their website with the accompanying statement:
“We regret to announce that Spin Doctors’ tour of Australia and New Zealand this May has been cancelled due to unexpected logistical shifts & circumstances.
“The band is incredibly grateful for the support of their fans across the region and is working hard to find a way to return as soon as possible.”
The tour would have been the band’s first tour of Australia since 1993.

Spin Doctors became global stars with the release of their 1991 debut album Pocket Full of Kryptonite, taking the alt-rock world by storm.
While subsequent releases never matched the success of their debut, Spin Doctors continued to write and record music and have released a total of seven studio albums, including this year’s Face Full of Cake.
Hopefully, Spin Doctors can return down under in the near future.
