James Marriott Reveals Exciting 2026 Tour Dates in Australia

UK indie-pop artist James Marriott is set to enchant Australian audiences with his clever and emotionally resonant songwriting. He has announced a series of headline performances for March and April 2026.

In collaboration with MG Live and Frontier Touring, the Brighton-born musician will visit Perth, Sydney, Adelaide, Melbourne, and Brisbane. This follows his first-ever trip to Australia, where he was part of the 2023 Yours & Owls festival lineup.

Rapid Rise to Stardom

In under three years, Marriott transitioned from sharing acoustic tracks online to emerging as one of the UK’s most celebrated new talents. His debut album, Are We There Yet?, achieved an impressive No. 17 on the UK Albums Chart. The follow-up, Don’t Tell The Dog, released in June 2024, debuted at No. 1 in both the UK and Scottish charts, showcasing a significant evolution in his sound with vibrant synths and an ability to transform raw feelings into pop artistry.

Current Success and Upcoming Shows

While currently touring the US, Marriott has already sold over 40,000 tickets in 2025 alone. Due to high demand, his upcoming UK and European shows in November and December have seen venue upgrades, including two sold-out nights at London’s renowned Roundhouse.

Live Experience in Australia

Australian fans are excited to experience Don’t Tell The Dog live, a performance described as a blend of “alt-pop theatre and emotional exorcism.” Recent singles such as “I Don’t Want To Live Like This,” “Toothache,” and “Plasticine” highlight Marriott’s growing skill in fusing vulnerability with catchy pop hooks.
