“I think that’s why we call it the church of Hot Milk so to speak because I think it feels like a religious experience for not only us but the people that are really into us as well because it is a cathartism on both sides…”
From Release: The incendiary duo of Hannah Mee and Jim Shaw are headed back down, following on from their 2023 Australian debut visit, when the band tore through two huge headline gigs in Sydney and Melbourne and crossed the country as support for rock icons Foo Fighters. Hungry for more, Hot Milk return to our shores after three years bringing an unmissable live show that’ll see fans screaming back every word. It’s been a busy start to 2026 for Hot Milk, who performed for the very first time in Mumbai, India, at Lollapalooza in January before wrapping up a run of European headline dates earlier this month. The band will then head to Japan, before arriving in Australia in May, with further festival sets at Madrid’s Mad Cool Festival locked in for July.
We caught up with Han and Jim to talk about the return of the band to Australia, their live show, their connection with Australia, new music, and so much more…
