Beloved London artist Matt Maltese will return to Australia in March 2026, for a run of headline shows.
The shows will hit Perth, Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney, making Matt’s largest venues across the region to date.
Matt’s Australian tour dates follow the release of his sixth studio album ‘Hers’, his first fully self-produced effort since the acclaimed 2019 LP ‘Krystal’.
‘Hers’ pairs heartfelt songwriting and dry witticism with the gentle quiver of strings, a flourish of woodwind, and the sound of a creaking old piano. It captures Matt as his most personal, trading irony for honesty and humour for vulnerability.
Much like kindred spirits Randy Newman and Father John Misty, beneath Matt’s melodies and classic pop craftsmanship are lyrics the stop you in your tracks to break your heart or make you laugh.
“I’ve said this before, but I do think the best work is where you allow yourself to look pathetic,” Matt reflects. “The job is not to be the coolest guy; the job is to be vulnerable. On this record, I think I’ve done more of that.”
Matt first established himself in 2018 with debut ‘Bad Contestant’, evolving into one of the UK’s finest young songwriters. In 2024, he embarked on a headline tour across Asia, Australia and New Zealand, following sold-out runs through the US, Europe, and the UK. Now he’s back to play larger rooms than ever before.
“We’re coming back next year,” Matt says to his Australian fans. “I’ve missed you and I can’t wait to bring this show to you all.”
