Stewart Copeland brings the Police Deranged for Orchestra tour down under

Former drummer of The Police, Stewart Copeland, is bringing his Police Deranged for Orchestra tour down under next year.

This is Copeland’s first live music appearance in Australia in almost 20 years, since The Police reunion tour in 2008.

The tour will head to Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Adelaide before making a final stop at Regal Theatre on Sunday, September 5.

The show is set to be an orchestral celebration of The Police’s biggest hits, as well as Copeland’s own work as a drummer and producer.

The concert features a 28-piece orchestra alongside a rock trio, an additional trio of singers, and a collaboration with the Perth Symphony Orchestra. Acclaimed conductor Sarah-Grace Williams will conduct at all shows, alongside a touring rock band comprising Mike Mills, Nick Delaney and three international vocalists.

Fans can expect a catalogue of The Police hits performed on stage, including Every Breath You Take, Roxanne, Message in a Bottle and more.

Originally from the US, Stewart Copeland moved to the UK in the 1970s, where he co-founded The Police, helping propel the band to global fame, Grammy success and record-breaking sales. Following the band’s disbandment in 1986, Copeland went on to earn further Grammy awards and acclaim for his work as a composer in opera, ballet and orchestral music.
