Sam Smith has announced a run of Australian headline shows for later this year. The ‘Unholy’ hitmaker will land in Australia in late October, playing arenas in all major cities around the country.
They’ll kick things off in Adelaide on Saturday, 28th October, before heading to Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane before jumping across the Tasman for a show in Auckland. Check out the full run of dates below.
Sam Smith & Kim Petras: ‘Unholy’
The tour will be in support of their new album Gloria, which will hit shelves and streaming services on Friday, 27th January. The record has been spearheaded by Smith’s Kim Petras collab, ‘Unholy’, which has been at the top of the ARIA charts for five weeks. Gloria is Smith’s fourth studio album, following Love Goes, The Thrill of it All, and In The Lonely Hour.
“It feels like emotional, sexual and spiritual liberation,” Smith said of the new record. “It feels like I’ve got my faith back, in my job. So it was beautiful, with this album, to sing freely again, for me. It feels like a coming of age”. The album’s second single, ‘Gimme’ feat. Koffee & Jessie Reyez, is out on Thursday, 12th January (5am AEST).
The singer is actually currently in Australia – the other day they were spotted at a butchery in the Blue Mountains – and they’re due to play an exclusive set tonight (11th January) at the d’Arenberg Cube winery in McLaren Vale, South Australia.
There’ll be two pre-sales running for tour tickets: a Telstra pre-sale, which will run from Friday, 13th January (more details here), and a Frontier members pre-sale, which will start on Monday, 16th January (more details here). Other ticket times will be staggered, see below.
