Malcom Young, who helped create AC/DC in 1973, died in 2017 following a battle with dementia. His nephew, Stevie Young, took his place in 2014.

Drummer Phil Rudd, meanwhile, ran into trouble in 2015. He faced charges related to illegal drug possession and threatening his employee.

He was replaced in 2023 by Matt Laug, Billboard reports, while bass guitarist Cliff Williams, who retired in 2016, was recently succeeded by Chris Chaney.

The Power Up North American Tour begins April 10 in Minneapolis.
