THE VISITORS RETURN TO EARTH 2008
The Visitors arose from the ashes of Radio Birdman in 1978, providing a musical outlet for that band's guitarist-songwriter Deniz Tek, keyboard player Pip Hoyle and drummer Ron Keeley. The original lineup featured Radio Birdman sidekick Mark Sisto, on vocals and teen prodigy Steve Harris on bass.
Tek, Hoyle and Sisto remain at the core of The Visitors with former Tumbleweed and Deniz Tek Group drummer Nik Rieth and ex ME-262 bassist (and teenage Visitors fan) Andy Newman now filling the engine room. Saxophonist Jack Shanley (Vindicator Smooth, Detroit Actual) is part of an expanded line-up.
To mark the Return to Earth Tour, the band's original long-out-of-print album will be re-issued on Citadel.
In a special coupling, ex-Screaming Tribesmen band leader Mick Medew and his Brisbane band The Rumours will join The Visitors at The Empire Hotel, Annandale, Saturday August 30 for his first appearance in the Harbour City in nine years. This will be the only city gig for The Visitors and Mick Medew & The Rumours and will be opened by locals 25th Floor who pay homage to the legendary Patti Smith.
