A PERFECT CIRCLE AUSTRALIAN TOUR TICKETS 2026

 A Perfect Circle will return to Australia for their first tour in almost 15 years.

All You Need To Know About A Perfect Circle

Formed in 1999 by guitarist and songwriter Billy Howerdel and Tool vocalist Maynard James Keenan, A Perfect Circle quickly emerged as one of the most distinctive acts in alternative rock. The group gained widespread recognition with their 2000 debut album Mer de Noms, which featured notable tracks including Judith and 3 Libras. They followed with the critically acclaimed Thirteenth Step in 2003, producing fan favourites such as The Outsider and further cementing the band’s reputation for atmospheric songwriting and layered instrumentation.

Despite several extended hiatuses throughout their career, A Perfect Circle have released four studio albums to date: Mer de Noms (2000), Thirteenth Step (2003), Emotive (2004) and Eat the Elephant (2018). Their music frequently explores themes of personal conflict, social commentary and political reflection, combining Howerdel’s textured guitar arrangements with Keenan’s distinctive vocal delivery. The band’s most recent release is the 2024 single Kindred, which accompanied a limited run of North American performances celebrating Keenan’s 60th birthday. Alongside A Perfect Circle, Keenan continues to perform with Tool and Puscifer, projects that have similarly shaped the landscape of modern alternative and progressive rock.

Top 3 A Perfect Circle Songs

1. Judith (2000)-  Released on the band’s debut album Mer de Noms, “Judith” is widely regarded as A Perfect Circle’s breakthrough single. Driven by heavy guitar work from Billy Howerdel and the powerful vocal delivery of Maynard James Keenan, the track remains one of the band’s most recognisable and commercially successful songs.

2. 3 Libras (2000)-  Also featured on Mer de Noms, “3 Libras” showcases the band’s more atmospheric and melodic approach. Built around orchestral arrangements and restrained instrumentation, the song highlights the group’s dynamic range and has become one of their most enduring fan favourites.

3. The Outsider (2003) - Taken from the band’s second studio album Thirteenth Step, “The Outsider” blends alternative rock with electronic influences while exploring themes of addiction and personal struggle. The track received significant radio airplay and continues to be a staple of the band’s live performances.
