Famed rock ‘n roll icon and ceaseless entertainer Micky Dolenz—still going strong as ever now at age 81—will tour Australia in May 2027 with a brand-new live show called “MICKY DOLENZ: 60 YEARS OF THE MONKEES” —a tuneful celebration marking the legendary TV show and the timeless music.“MICKY DOLENZ: 60 YEARS OF THE MONKEES” celebrates one of pop culture’s most beloved bands and the unforgettable music that defined a generation. In this brand-new show, Micky takes audiences on a joyful, musical journey through The Monkees’ history—performing the hits in chronological order, from the chart-topping classics to the fan favorites—all told with his signature warmth, wit, and stories. The hits include Pleasant Valley Sunday, I’m A Believer, I’m Not Your Stepping Stone, Last Train to Clarksville, Randy Scouse Git, Sometime In The Morning, Daydream Believer and so many more!
Says Dolenz: “I’ve spent nearly my entire life either in front of or behind the cameras or
microphones. Much of what I’ve been able to share with the world has come from this thing
called ‘The Monkees’ - this wacky musical-comedy TV show about a band struggling for success. Interestingly, on the show, The Monkees never actually made it. Off screen, however, we sold out concerts all over the world.
Mike put it perfectly when he said, ‘when we first played, all by ourselves, it was like Pinocchio becoming a real little boy. I remain proud of what I’ve achieved in my time, particularly with my late great and still-beloved Monkee brothers Davy, Peter, and Michael. What I want to do, as the 60th anniversary of that wonderful moment is upon me, is to look back and share with the fans the sheer joy of what we accomplished—and what it all still means to so many’.
“THE MONKEES” TV show—featuring Dolenz, along with castmates Michael Nesmith, Peter Tork, and Davy Jones— became an instant phenomenon. The show won 2 Emmys and the records sold in the millions. According to Billboard, The Monkees’ first four albums reached No. 1. No band has accomplished that feat since.
