Former Radio Birdman guitarist Chris Masuak will end a long break from touring as part of a fiery two-band Australian assault on Europe this summer.
Named in honour of Roky Erickson, “The Two Headed Dog Tour” pairs Chris Masuak’s Dog Soldier with high energy Aussie garage rockers The Crisps for shows in Poland, Germany and France in July and August.
The tour will be Masuak’s first since emergency eye surgery cancelled an Australian tour by Dog Soldier in 2025. The band will return to Australia in October. The players involved will need no introduction to European audiences.
Canadian-born, Australian-reared Masuak now lives in Spain but has toured the Continent with Radio Birdman many times. He’s also been a member of the Hitmen, Screaming Tribesmen, New Christs, Chris Masuak and the Viveiro Wave Riders. He currently plays with Spanish outfit Los Revleators.
Chris Masuak’s Dog Soldier is Masuak on guitar and vocals with drummer Stuart Wilson (New Christs, Lime Spiders, Van Ruin, Aberration, Stu & The Connections) and bassist Phil Hall (Sardine v, Dropbears, Roddy Ray’Da & The Surfin’ Caesars, John Kennedy & The New Originals, Flaming Hands.)
The line-up recorded an album, “Chris Masuak’s Dog Soldier”, that is being released on vinyl by Polish label Heavy Medication and US imprint Savage Magic to coincide with the tour
The Crisps are led by Stuart Wilson and comprise Berlin-based Dave Thomas (Bella Wreck, Domfoxx) and Phil Hall. Their debut album, “Four On Floor”, is also being released by Heavy Medication in conjunction with the tour.
