The Aristocrats announce headline show at The Academy

The band blends elements of hard rock, jazz fusion, metal and country. Their live shows are marked by technical precision, complex arrangements and offbeat humour, sometimes drawing comparisons to Frank Zappa for their musical and interpersonal spontaneity.

The Aristocrats' self-titled debut album was recorded in just eight days and widely praised by critics. Since then, they have released four additional studio albums.

Their latest project Duck (2024), is a concept album telling the story of an Antarctic duck fleeing a penguin policeman to New York City.

Tickets for the June 3, 2026, Academy gig are on sale now and can be found on Ticketmaster.
