NEW Jersey rockers Trixter are to visit Australia the first time.

The eighties stars will be in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane during March and will be bringing Femme Fatale and Tuff’s Stevie Richelle with them.

Known for the singles “Give It To Me Good”, “Rockin’ Horse” and “One In A Million”, the band’s current line-up features Steve Brown on vocals guitar, PJ Farley on bass and Ben Hans on drums. Brown was a close collaborator with Ace Frehley on his final album, 10,000 Volts, and has filled in for Def Leppard when Vivian Campbell was ill.

Femme Fatale have undergone a number of line-up changes since reforming behind singer Lorraine Lewis in 2013 and currently features Sean McNabb – formerly of Quiet Riot, Dokken, Lynch Mob, Great White and others – on bass, Mr Big’s Matt Starr on drums and Whitesnake’s Joel Hoekstra on guitar.

Rachelle still tours occasionally with a version of Tuff but is also known for running the rock news website Metal Sludge.
