The Dandy Warhols return to Australia and New Zealand this month for a run of shows in support of their thirteenth studio album, Pin Ups, which dropped earlier this year.

Ahead of the first show in Tassie later this month, the band have announced their tour supports, with psych-rock outfit Nice Biscuit joining The Dandy Warhols in Auckland, Wellington, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne, drone rockers Night Rites in Adelaide and emerging rock outfit GRUB in Fremantle.

The Dandy Warhols kick things off in Tassie alongside the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra at Hobart's Odeon Theatre on Tuesday 24 November. The quartet then makes their way to New Zealand for concerts at Auckland's Powerstation on Friday 27 November and Wellington's Meow Nui on Saturday 28 November.

Heading back to Australia for December, The Dandy's play Sydney's Enmore Theatre on Tuesday 1 December, Brisbane's Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane on Friday 4 December, Adelaide's Thebarton Theatre on Saturday 5 December, Fremantle's Metroplois on Tuesday 8 December, Melbourne's Palais Theatre on Thursday 10 December and finally Meredith Music Festival on Friday 11 December.

"The Oz tour is right around the corner and we are getting very pumped about it," vocalist and guitarist Courtney Taylor-Taylor said in earlier press material. "This one starts in Tasmania with the Symphony there; that will be a mind-expanding trip. Then we hit all our favourite cities, or most of them, including some New Zealand shows.

"Then we end at Meredith Festival, which we are told repeatedly is the coolest. There's going to be a lot of amazing music, food, wine and even wineries. We have always loved it down under, which is why it's been The Dandy Warhols' second home for almost three decades."

Catch The Dandy Warhols performing at Thebarton Theatre on Saturday 5 December. Tickets on sale at ticketmaster.com.au.
