Scottish singing sensation Lewis Capaldi has announced he鈥檒l be returning to Australian shores this December for his first national performances since 2020.
Keeping a relatively low profile over last two years, the 28-year-old has returned to the scene with his new single Survive, complimenting his special appearance at Glastonbury Festival in late June.
In true Capaldi style, the singer declared, 鈥淢y name鈥檚 Lewis Capaldi and I鈥檓 f**king back, baby.鈥
The star will travel to New Zealand in November, before touching down in Brisbane in early December where he will continue a string of singular performances in Sydney, Melbourne, and Adelaide, before playing his final tour show at Perth鈥檚 RAC Arena on December 17.
Aussies last saw Capaldi in action during Falls Festival in the summer of 2019/2020.
Following his recent pause on live performances, the Before You Go singer returned to the stage in his home country as a guest of mental health charity CALM in celebration of Mental Health Awareness Week.
The self-deprecating singer has historically proven he doesn鈥檛 take himself too seriously, but in 2023 was forced to address his mental health concerns while on stage at Glastonbury as symptoms of his Tourette鈥檚 Syndrome overcame him.
鈥淚 feel like I鈥檒l be taking another wee break over the next couple of weeks,鈥 he told fans at the time.
鈥淪o you probably won鈥檛 see much of me for the rest of year, maybe even. But when I do come back and when I do see you, I hope you鈥檙e still up for watching us.鈥
On June 27, Capaldi closed the loop and reassured supporters at the festival he hadn鈥檛 forgotten about them in a powerful 30-minute set.
鈥淪econd time鈥檚 a charm on this one,鈥 he said.
鈥淚 just wanted to come and finish what I couldn鈥檛 finish last time.鈥
Fans who purchased tickets to the singer-songwriter鈥檚 cancelled 2023 tour in Australia will be eligible for a Past Ticket Holders Presale on July 10.
Tickets will be made available to the public from Monday, July 14.
