Playing eight huge shows across Auckland, Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, the multi-platinum, award-winning singer-songwriter will be joined by Stateside icons Jordan Davis and Mitchell Tenpenny, along with local legend Lane Pittman, who supported Combs on his 2023 Australian tour. The explosive stadium show will be one of epic proportions, the likes of which have never been seen in Australia and New Zealand.

Luke Combs’ upcoming tour is the latest milestone in an already monumental career, which last week saw him scoop up nominations for Male Vocalist of the Year, Album of the Year (Fathers & Sons) and the coveted Entertainer of the Year (which he won in 2021 and 2022), at this year’s CMA Awards.

Local audiences have well and truly embraced Combs, evidenced with Sydney and Brisbane amongst Luke’s Top 4 global streaming cities on Spotify, and with ARIA 3x Platinum album This One’s For You, and the chart-topping 2x Platinum What You See Ain’t Always What You Get. On his fourth headline Australian tour, Combs’ will cement his unparalleled trajectory, progressing from intimate theatres to stadiums in just five short years.

Released in June, Combs’ Fathers & Sons album is a collection of twelve poignant tracks featuring his most personal songwriting to date. Recorded entirely live, the album sees Combs reflect on his own experiences being a dad to his two sons and the unique bond between parents and their children, and features lead single ‘The Man He Sees In Me’.

Critical acclaim for Fathers & Sons —

“he’s going beyond the country realm now and really has become a pop star, a global popstar” – NPR Music

“filled with unexpected warmth and vulnerability…a perfect match for Mr. Combs’s warm and engaging style.” – The Wall Street Journal

The record adds yet another landmark for Combs, whose hit radio single ‘Ain’t No Love in Oklahoma’ featured on the soundtrack for the new Twisters movie and is the subject of a new exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Entitled Luke Combs: The Man I Am, the exhibit features a variety of photographs, childhood memorabilia, instruments, set lists and more from throughout Combs’ life and career.

Earlier this year, Combs performed an unforgettable duet of ‘Fast Car’ with Tracy Chapman during the 66th Annual GRAMMY Awards, which Rolling Stone called “one of the all-time best collaborative performances in Grammy history.” The performance added to a massive year for ‘Fast Car’, as Combs’ version of the song won Single of the Year at the 2024 ACM Awards and 2023 CMA Awards (with Chapman winning Song of the Year). It also spent five-consecutive weeks atop Billboard’s Country Airplay chart and reached No.1 on the Hot AC Chart, the first song by a male solo artist to ever top both. The 2x Platinum single, which has garnered over 1.1 billion global streams to date, also spent eighteen weeks in the Top 5 of Billboard’s all-genre Hot 100 chart, eight of which were spent at No.2.

Returning down under after making their Australian debuts at CMC Rocks QLD in 2023, both Jordan Davis and Mitchell Tenpenny will bring the heat to stadiums in 2025.

Award-winning, multi-platinum singer/songwriter Jordan Davis is known for his Platinum-selling albums Homestate and Bluebird Days as well as his CMA and ACM winning Song of the Year hits and numerous No.1s, including ‘Next Thing You Know’, ‘Buy Dirt’, ‘What My World Spins Around’, ‘Tucson Too Late’, ‘Singles You Up’, ‘Take It From Me’ and ‘Slow Dance In A Parking Lot’. Having secured wins for Best New Country Artist at the iHeartRadio Music Awards (2019) and Billboard’s Top New Country Artist of 2018, he has gone on to be nominated for ACM New Male and Male of the Year and is the current reigning ACM Song of the Year winner for ‘Next Thing You Know’. Currently at work on his new album, Davis recently released ‘I Ain’t Sayin’, the first single off his upcoming project.

A multi-faceted entertainer, Mitchell Tenpenny is a singer, songwriter, producer and performer. Since the release of his debut 3x Platinum No.1 single ‘Drunk Me’, Tenpenny has surpassed 2.1 billion global streams and continues to set the standard for breakout success in country music. His new studio album The 3rd is released tomorrow.

At just eighteen years of age, Tamworth’s Lane Pittman is quickly making an impact in Australian country music. Rising to fame as his debut EP leapt to No.1 on the ARIA Australian Country Album Charts, Pittman has performed on some of the country’s biggest stages, joining Luke Combs on his 2023 tour of Australia and New Zealand.

Written with Aussie country legend, Troy Kemp, and produced by Jared Adlam, Katie is cementing herself as one to watch in the rise of country music in Australia.
 
Of the track, Katie says, “I love the energy in this song, the room felt electric when we wrote this and that same energy was expertly captured in the studio with Jared. It’s the sequel to Carrie Underwood’s Before He Cheats. He should have listened to her song first!”

Based in the Hunter Valley, country artist, Katie Jayne is best known for her fun, high energy band performances and authentic social media presence. Her soulful voice, unforgettable melodies, and magnetic stage presence, combined with her band’s exceptional musicianship, will leave you wanting more!
 
A champion of women, her songs lead the listener on a journey of girl power style sass through to a vulnerable relatability. Exploring an autobiographical writing style, Katie writes songs for girls just like her while drawing inspiration from the likes of Miranda Lambert, The Chicks and Dolly Parton.
 
A popular act in Honky Tonks in NSW and QLD, Katie is powering on playing live shows and releasing more music than ever before. Coupled with her ever growing popularity on social media, Katie is dominating on short form video platforms and quickly making a name for herself as one to watch out for in 2024.
 
Katie also presents The Cruze with Katie, weekdays from 1 to 6pm on 2NM in Muswellbrook.

Saddle up for three nights of original songs, stories, and grooves with a triple bill of country and psychedelic rock on the “Outback Tour”.

Three original acts from regional NSW were chosen from hundreds of applicants, to bring their songs and stories to the far west, in a tour curated by MusicNSW. These amazing artists are set to share their passion for music and love of performing, so let’s take a moment to shine the light on each of them before you pencil a date into your calendar for October. 

Megan Woods came bursting onto the scene in May 2022 with her debut single “Shirt On The Floor,” and swiftly garnered attention, clinching two prestigious awards at the Dotted Eight Music Awards later that year. Her newest release “Shattering the Silence” is a moving, thoughtful country classic.

Baeden Faint, from the great town of Cobar, draws inspiration from artists like Zach Bryan, Tyler Childers and Colter Wall, making real music that is raw and honest. His tendency to ramble the countryside has led him to several unlikely songwriting locations. 

“I’ve played guitar and written songs everywhere. On a coastal cliff face, top of a misty mountain, waterfalls, island in the middle of a creek, camped out under an old corry shelter in the middle of nowhere, on the edge of the Simpson desert.” 

Every little detail in Baeden’s life contributes to his stunning lyricism – his words resonate with honesty and authenticity because he’s truly lived them.

Liquid Culture (Bathurst) – a cocktail blend of psychedelic grooves, alternate riffs, and distinctive melodies – drawing inspiration from iconic bands such as Pink Floyd, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Fleetwood Mac, they share a passion for creating music that solidifies their own sound and speaks to the human experience. Their latest single “Lysergic Lavender” takes on a bluesy, almost reggae turn. They are the soundtrack of great nights out and the perfect road trip vibe.

This tour has been possible with support from MusicNSW, Bush Witch Productions, Create NSW, The Palace Hotel Broken Hill, Wilcannia Golf Club, and Cobar Golf Club.
