For over 40 years Aussie rockers Hoodoo Gurus have entertained crowds with their punk-tinged sound.  

This summer they're pairing up with the legends of rock, Joan Jett and Iggy Pop, for the Summer Concert Tour, including dates in Taupō, Wānaka and Auckland. 

With over 20 New Zealand gigs under their belts, the Gurus are no stranger to Aotearoa shores.

The Hoodoo Gurus were formed in Sydney in 1981 by Dave Faulkner. This summer they'll join Joan Jett and Iggy Pop on their Summer Concert Tour of New Zealand.
