Kasey Chambers Announces 'Backbone' Australian Tour

Australian country music icon Kasey Chambers is taking her forthcoming album, Backbone, on the road. Today, she announced a massive 30-date national tour that will take place over five months.

Backbone, Chambers’ thirteenth album, will be released next month (Friday, 4 October). In addition to releasing a new album, Chambers will be dropping a new book, Just Don’t Be A Dickhead, that same week.

Chambers’ 30-date tour begins at Tamworth Town Hall (as part of the Tamworth Country Music Festival) on Thursday, 23 January. From there, she’ll perform in capital cities and regional centres in NSW, VIC, SA, WA, NT, QLD and TAS over five months, the tour wrapping up at Toowoomba’s Empire Theatre on 15 June. You can find all the tour dates and venues below.

In a statement, Chambers said of the upcoming tour, “And now, my favourite part of my ‘life in music’ falls into place…THE LIVE TOUR.

“In 2025, we will be embarking on the ‘BACKBONE TOUR’ for the first half of the year throughout Australia. Celebrating my new releases Backbone (the album) and Just Don’t Be A Dickhead (the book of profound lessons I’ve learnt through the years), my full band and I will be visiting songs throughout my career that shaped who I am.”

She added, “I can’t wait to be sharing some new songs along with my old favourites and the stories and secrets behind where they came from, like never before. For me, the BACKBONE TOUR already feels like the live soundtrack to my life.”

Pre-sale tickets will be available on Wednesday, 25 September, at 11 am local time, followed by a general sale at 11 am on Monday, 30 September. You can find tickets via Kasey Chambers’ website.
