\n\tChet Faker has announced two new Australian headline shows as part of his ongoing A Love for Strangers world tour.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe additional concerts are set for March 3 at Brisbane\u2019s Fortitude Music Hall and March 4 at Sydney\u2019s Enmore Theatre. The newly announced dates arrive amid an already busy touring schedule for the Australian singer-songwriter, who is also set to perform at Adelaide\u2019s A Day in the Gully festival on Feb. 28, followed by shows in Melbourne on March 1 and Perth on March 6.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe tour supports A Love for Strangers<\/em>, Chet Faker\u2019s forthcoming album due Feb. 13 via BMG. <\/p>\n \n\tThe project marks his first full-length release since 2021\u2019s Hotel Surrender<\/em> and arrives more than a decade after his breakout debut, Built on Glass<\/em>, which was released in 2014. That album helped establish Faker \u2014 born Nick Murphy \u2014 as one of Australia\u2019s most globally recognized electronic and alternative artists, powered by songs including \u201cTalk Is Cheap\u201d and \u201cGold.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tNew material from A Love for Strangers<\/em> has already begun to surface, with recent singles \u201cFar Side of the Moon\u201d and \u201cThis Time for Real\u201d offering an early glimpse into the record\u2019s direction. The album is positioned as a reflective moment in Murphy\u2019s career, following the 10-year anniversary of Built on Glass<\/em> and a period of personal and creative reassessment.<\/p>\n \n\tThe Australian dates are part of a broader global itinerary. Chet Faker previously announced a 21-date North American run scheduled for April and May, with European shows set to follow in July. <\/p>\n \n\tTogether, the tour dates reflect a return to more intimate venues alongside select festival appearances, giving fans multiple entry points into this latest chapter of his catalog.<\/p>\n \n\tTickets for the Brisbane and Sydney headline shows go on sale Monday, Jan. 19, at 12 p.m. local time. A Frontier Members presale will begin Thursday, Jan. 15, at 10 a.m. local time. The shows are promoted by Frontier Touring.<\/p>\n \n\tSince first emerging under the Chet Faker moniker in the early 2010s, Murphy has built a career defined by evolution rather than repetition, alternating between electronic experimentation, soul-rooted songwriting and stripped-back production. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
