Jacob Collier Adds New Shows to 2022 Australian ‘Djesse’ Tour

UK wunderkind Jacob Collier will be in Australia during the first half of December as part of his global Djesse tour. Tickets for Collier’s shows in Adelaide, Hobart, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane went on sale a couple of Fridays ago (5th August) and demand has been such that Collier’s added new shows in Melbourne and Sydney, as well as Auckland.

Tickets for Collier’s performance at Sydney’s Enmore Theatre on Wednesday, 7th December have sold out, so he’ll stick around for a second show at the venue on Thursday, 8th December. The gig at Melbourne’s Forum on Sunday, 4th December is also expected to sell out, prompting the announcement of a new all ages show at the venue on Monday, 5th December.

Collier is touring in support of his ongoing Djesse project, the latest instalment of which, Djesse Vol. 3, came out in August 2020. Collier continues to display a penchant for indiscriminate collaboration, working on the album with artists as varied as T-Pain, Kimbra, Tank and the Bangas, Mahalia, Ty Dolla $ign, Tori Kelly, Rapsody, Daniel Caesar and more.

Collier’s debut album, In My Room, came out in 2016, introducing the London-raised performed as an absurdly gifted instrumentalist. He released Djesse Vol. 1 in 2018, teaming up with the Metropole Orkest and vocalists such as Laura Mvula and a cappella group Take 6. Djesse Vol. 2 came out in 2019 and featured collabs with the likes of Sam Amidon, Steve Vai and Lianne La Havas.

Collier’s latest single, ‘Never Gonna Be Along’, came out in June 2022. True to form, it features a couple of big name guests: Lizzy McAlpine and John Mayer.
