Indie-pop darling Amy Shark is heading on tour this October and November. The ‘Adore’ singer has announced six shows in Australia along with a solitary New Zealand gig.
‘The Sadness Tour’ kicks off in Auckland at the Auckland Town Hall on Saturday, October 12. Shark then heads back to Australia for shows at Sidney Myer Music Bowl in Melbourne (Friday, October 18), MAC 02 in Hobart (Saturday, October 19) and ICC Sydney Theatre in Sydney (Friday, October 26). The final leg of the tour includes shows at Riverstage in Brisbane (Saturday, October 26), AEC Theatre in Adelaide (Thursday, October 31) and Kings Park & Botanic Garden in Perth (Saturday, November 2).

“I can’t wait to get back on the road to see you all and bring this new record to life on stage,” Sharks says. “I’m really proud of this album and am so excited to perform it live, as well as all your favourite tracks. Counting down the days!”
The tour comes in support of Shark’s forthcoming third album, Sunday Sadness. Set for release on August 16, the album contains the previously released singles ‘Can I Shower at Yours’, ‘Beautiful Eyes’ and ‘Loving Me Lover’.
Beginning her career in several bands before going solo, Shark went by several aliases before settling on Amy Shark. Releasing several independent singles that created a buzz in her home state of Queensland, it wasn’t until the release of her 2016 song ‘Adore’ that Shark finally got noticed, with the song getting radio play on triple j.
Shark’s career took off from there, with the singer-songwriter signing with Sony and releasing her debut album, Lover Monster, in 2018. The record was a smash hit, taking out top spot on the ARIA Chart and was followed by another number one album, 2021s Cry Forever.
Now firmly established as one of Australia’s great artists, fans are eagerly awaiting the release of Shark’s new album and the chance to see her live in 2024.
