Aussie musician Jimmy Barnes has some exciting news for his Perth fans following a recent health scare that saw the 66-year-old undergo open-heart surgery.
The Australian rocker and former frontman of Cold Chisel took to Instagram on Sunday to announce his upcoming national tour Hell of a Time which will kick off in Perth in June.
But his first return to the stage will be at Bluesfest Byron Bay in March — just three months after spending days in ICU.
“I can’t wait to get back on stage, in front of the band and playing for you all,” the post read.
Barnesy also thanked everyone for their support during his illness scare last year.
“The family were passing on your messages of care and it really lifted my spirits,” he said.
It comes after the Aussie icon shared some worrying health news in December of an infection that had spread to his heart, which forced the musician to cancel an upcoming gig.
“Unfortunately, I got some bad news late yesterday... despite everyone’s best efforts, the bacterial infection I’ve been battling over the last fortnight has apparently now spread to my heart,” he wrote.
“It’s infected an otherwise healthy valve that was replaced some years ago due to a congenital defect, so I’ll be getting open heart surgery over the next few hours to clear this infection and put in a clean valve.
Later that month following the serious surgery, the rock legend posed for an update from his wife Jane that showed him strolling down the hospital ward hallways with a smile on his face.
“Day 3 post op we had a few walks up and down the hall way, 250m I’d say,” Mrs Barnes said.
“A tough & fragile day but here’s a big brave smile for us. Keep up the good work Jimmy.”
