US folk-country artist Waylon Wyatt will return to Australia next year for his biggest headline run on our shores to date in support of his forthcoming debut album, Dustpiles.
The Arkansas songwriter will head our way in January 2027, with shows locked in for Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
Dustpiles, Wyatt’s long-awaited first full-length, drops on July 17th. The Australian leg follows a swell of momentum that has seen the teenager hop from the bedroom-recorded demos of his debut EP Til The Sun Goes Down to RIAA Gold certifications for early cuts “Arkansas Diamond” and “Jailbreak”, a slot opening for Zach Bryan at London’s Hyde Park, and festival appearances at Stagecoach, Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza.
A son of Hackett, Arkansas — population just under 800 — Wyatt cut his teeth writing songs after long days on construction sites with his father, self-producing his earliest releases in the rec room of the family home. His follow-up EP Out of Blue expanded the palette without losing the red-dirt grit, drawing a wave of critical attention that has positioned him as one of the most-watched young songwriters in the Americana lane. He was named one of VEVO’s 2026 DSCVR Artists to Watch earlier this year, and dropped new single, “But There Was a Time” earlier this month as the first taste of Dustpiles.
Australian audiences caught their first glimpse of Wyatt at 2025’s Ridin’ Hearts Festival, alongside a sold-out Brisbane headliner, before he returned for a standout run at CMC Rocks QLD in 2026.
Frontier Members presale opens 11am local time on Wednesday, May 20th, before general tickets go on sale from 9am local time on Thursday, May 21st. Click here for more details and check out all of the dates below.
