Australian singer-songwriter Dean Lewis has announced a national headline tour, taking in 15 dates at the end of the year.
After impressing North American and European audiences, the pop star is bringing his ‘Sad Boi Winter Summer’ tour home. Beginning in Brisbane on Tuesday, November 8th, Lewis will visit cities including Hobart, Newcastle, Fremantle, and Melbourne, before finishing the tour in Traralgon on Saturday, December 3rd (see full dates below).
Lewis will be backed by Perth performer Blake Rose on his Australian tour, who he personally selected as his support after hearing Rose’s music on Spotify. Pre-sale for Telstra Plus members begins on Tuesday, June 14th at 1pm local time until Thursday, June 16th at 1pm local time. Tickets then go on sale to the general public on Monday, June 20th at 10am local time. Head to TEG VAN EGMOND for all ticket information.
“Up until now, it had been two-and-a-half years since I toured with a proper band and I can’t wait to finally perform for my fans all around Australia once again,” Lewis says about the tour. “I love to connect with my fans in person and many of my new songs haven’t even been performed live for my homeland fans yet!
I find my songs work best when I get personal, when I write from my own experience, and it’s actually through performing them live that a song’s purpose becomes fully realised – I get to look at all your faces to make sure I’ve done my job, writing songs that move people and worm their way into your hearts.”
It’s testament to Lewis’s talent that he’s connected with fans at this level after just one album release. His debut album, A Place We Knew, was hugely successful in 2019, topping the ARIA Albums Chart and being certified 2x Platinum. At that year’s ARIA Music Awards, Lewis was nominated for three awards, winning for Album of the Year, Best Male Artist, and Song of the Year (‘7 Minutes’).
