Winston Surfshirt is officially back in his bag. The multi-platinum artist and low-key king of Aussie groove has just announced a fresh run of headline shows to celebrate his new album Winston, dropping July 25th via Sweat It Out.
If you’ve missed those blissed-out beats, buttery vocals and genre-hopping bangers, you’re in luck. Winston is hitting three cities this spring: Brisbane’s Princess Theatre on September 26th (as part of Brisbane Festival), 170 Russell in Melbourne on October 17th, and Liberty Hall in Sydney on October 18th.
He’s calling it a celebration of Winston, his fourth studio album and first full-length project since 2022’s Panna Cotta. Today, he dropped new single “JEEP”, a laid-back, bassline-heavy bop that sounds like it was made for cruising with the windows down and a blunt in hand. It’s classic Surfshirt: low-key, lush, and totally addictive.
Winston’s live shows have always been a core part of the experience. There’s a reason he’s toured internationally and played just about every major Aussie festival — he brings his full band, always locks into a deep-pocket groove, and knows how to get a room moving without ever yelling a word.
From Sponge Cake to Apple Crumble, Winston Surfshirt has been Australia’s genre-blender-in-chief, slinging syrupy love songs and jazz-infused beats that sit somewhere between Anderson .Paak and Tame Impala. But unlike the crowd-chasers, he’s stayed true to his vision — weird, warm, and fully his own.
This upcoming tour isn’t arena chaos — it’s club-level energy with big heart. Expect smooth falsetto, improvised solos, and at least one shirtless dude in the crowd vibing like it’s his religion.
