The new tickets are on sale now via the Frontier website. Prices range from around $90 to $150.
Sam Smith – ‘Unholy’ ft. Kim Petras
Smith’s forthcoming tour is in support of their latest album Gloria, which came out on Friday, 27th January. The album includes the international smash hit ‘Unholy’, a collaboration with Deutsch queer icon Kim Petras. ‘Unholy’ topped the ARIA Top 50 Singles chart upon release in September 2022 and has gained 5x platinum accreditation.
Nothing else on the album has matched the year-defining success of ‘Unholy’, but follow-up single ‘I’m Not Here to Make Friends (with Calvin Harris and Jessie Reyez) has been a hit in its own right.
Smith will be supported on the Australian tour by arena pop tearjerker Meg Mac, whose latest album, Matter of Time, debuted at number one on ARIA’s Top 50 Albums chart in September 2022. The album includes the singles ‘Letter’ and ‘Is It Worth Being Sad’, the latter of which features production from The Donuts, who have also worked with the likes of SZA, Joji, H.E.R. and more.
