New York - No Wave Queen, Lydia Lunch – returns to Australia to perform the songs of synth – punk band, Suicide and Alan Vega. Lydia will be joined on stage by Andrew Coates of much loved Melbourne electro trio, Black Cab to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Alan Vega’s passing + special guests.Lunch originally met Suicide – the duo of late vocalist Alan Vega and multi-instrumentalist Martin Rev – in the 1970s, when Lunch moved to New York City from Rochester as a teenager. She formed a lifelong bond with the pair, often joining them on-stage to perform the song ‘Frankie Teardrop’ and recording a duet as part of Vega’s solo album Sniper. Since Vega’s passing in 2016, Lunch has performed several Suicide tribute shows, most often with Marc Hurtado.Having previously never performed the show in Australia, Lydia surprised fans on a night off in Melbourne during her 2024 Spoken Word tour with an impromptu appearance at the Tote. It sold out in 3 days so she decided to bring it back for Vega’s anniversary in 2026.Passionate, sexual, confrontational and bold, Lunch, Vega and Rev are all cut from the same grimy cloth of 1970s New York. This show is more than a tribute. It’s an offering.
