Georgia Lines will play her first Australian shows this year.
While in the country to showcase her music at BIGSOUND 2024, the Kiwi pop singer-songwriter will also perform at Sydney’s Waywards on August 30th and Melbourne’s Northcote Social Club the following day (see full details below).
Lines can’t wait to get going. “A few of you have been wondering when I’m coming across to finally play some shows in Australia… I’m very excited to announced I’ll be jumping across the ocean and playing two shows for you very soon!” she says.
Following her Australian tour, Lines will return to her home country for a special Auckland album release show at Auckland’s Powerstation on September 20th.
Lines is touring in support of her new album The Rose of Jericho, which dropped one week after she was named Best Pop Artist at the 2024 Aotearoa Music Awards.
“I’ve poured a lot of myself into the songwriting of this album,” Lines shared about her debut album. “It is honest and vulnerable, and dives into places in my own journey which I have written much of the album around.”
Rolling Stone AU/NZ gave The Rose of Jericho a glowing four-star review.
“Georgia Lines’ debut record sounds so raw and delicate that you immediately feel the heartache which had to be overcome to make it,” our review read.
“With songs about the dichotomy of a life well lived (“Grand Illusion”), mourning what could have been (“Not by Your Side” ft. Teeks), and all the wished-for-words left unsaid (“The Letter”), it’s any wonder she is one of the most exciting songwriters to come out of Aotearoa in recent memory.
Make no mistake, the record leans into piano-driven R&B and indie-pop, but with so much imagery and truth in each song, it sits in a room of its own. The Rose of Jericho captures the internal struggle we all feel at some point — that’s the magic of Georgia Lines.”
