Western Sydney artist grentperez is taking Backflips in a Restaurant on the road.
The rising star has announced ‘The Backflips in a Restaurant Tour’, hitting venues across Australia and New Zealand this October and November. It all kicks off Thursday, October 30th in Fremantle, with stops in Adelaide, Melbourne, Auckland, and Brisbane, before wrapping with a big hometown show in Sydney on Wednesday, November 12th.
Tickets go on sale Tuesday, May 13th at 11am local time. My Live Nation members can access presale tickets from 10am Monday, May 12th, with registration now open at livenation.com.au (AU) and livenation.co.nz (NZ).
Backflips in a Restaurant, released in March, marked grentperez’s full-length debut – a globe-hopping, genre-skipping project packed with heart and soul.
Our glowing review praised his gift for nostalgic yet fresh songwriting, calling out standouts like the summer-sweet “Fuzzy Feeling”, the twinkling “Need You Around”, and the Ruel-assisted “Dandelion”.
He also gave Rolling Stone AU/NZ an exclusive look behind the scenes of the album – which followed a huge North American tour, a Future of Music profile, and his win as Emerging Songwriter of the Year at the 2024 APRA Awards.
“‘Backflips in a Restaurant’ is a taste of what’s to come in my artistry. I wanted to use this album to express who I am as an artist and a creator, what I have to offer in terms of differing genres and in this case; flavour,” grentperez shared at the time.

“Growing up, I soaked up a lot of music from 70s soft rock, to 2000s R&B, Bossa Nova, Indie, Rap, etc… This music effectively influenced my music making, and since my first release in 2021, I’ve been itching to explore and experiment with my sound. As a creative, I believe my job is to constantly explore and express myself, and with Backflips in a Restaurant I’m taking the steps to do just that.”
