Presented by Untitled Group and Double J, gifted singer-songwriter Jalen Ngonda has announced his first Australian tour. The R&B crooner has locked in six dates, including two shows in Sydney, as part of his January 2025 tour.
Signed to Daptone Records, home to the likes of The Budos Band and Thee Sacred Souls, Ngonda released his debut album Come Around and Love Me in 2023 to universal acclaim.
Having supported Lauryn Hill, sold out shows across North America, Europe and the UK and performed at festivals such as Down the Rabbit Hole and Glastonbury Festival, Ngonda is excited to perform for his Aussie fans when he touches down next year.
The soulful Ngonda begins his tour at the Princess Theatre in Brisbane on Tuesday, January 14. He then performs two shows at Sydney’s City Recital Hall on Thursday, January 16 and Friday, January 17. The final three concerts take place at Melbourne’s Northcote Theatre on Saturday, January 18, Adelaide’s Lion Arts Factory on Monday, January 20 and Fremantle’s Freo.Social on Tuesday, January 21.

The gifted singer-songwriter is known to write music every day and has released two new singles in 2024, ‘Here To Stay’ and ‘Illusions’. He’s already been touted as “a huge star” by Elton John and received praise from contemporaries Snoop Dog, Jill Scott, Kehlani and Olivia Dean.
Having spent much of this year touring the globe, Ngonda is already plotting his sophomore record that will no doubt combine his love for the golden era of soul with his modern take on soulful R&B music.
