Revered Australian singer-songwriter Pete Murray is set to embark on a mammoth 55-date run that will see Pete expansively tour the country in solo acoustic mode for the first time ever, commencing this May and supported nationally by Rachael Fahim and Brett Wood. 

Pete’s largest tour ever and with most shows being all ages, the extensive solo acoustic tour will see him visit a stack of markets he’s never been to, rolling through every pocket of Australia in 2025, with a whopping 54 shows lined up across regional Australia as well as capital cities from May through to early September. Launching on Friday May 9 in Darwin, Pete will journey across the Northern Territory, Victoria, Tasmania, Queensland, Victoria, New South Wales, the ACT and Western Australia for these special intimate shows, with the mammoth run ultimately concluding on Sunday September 7 in the Blue Mountains.

Pete Murray needs little introduction as one of Australia’s most successful singer-songwriters who has sold over 1.2 million albums, amassed hundreds of millions of streams, released three ARIA chart-topping albums, and boasts 17 ARIA Award nominations amongst multiple other wins and nominations. His upcoming tour will be Pete’s first ever solo tour on home soil, armed with an acoustic guitar and a stunning back catalogue of hits to create his setlists from. “I’ve never done a solo tour in this country before, so it’s been on the cards for a while,” shares Pete. “I’ve done it overseas and people love it - so it’s about time I did it in my own country. There will be some story telling of my songs, my life and career. The shows will be very intimate.”

He has also just offered fans a second taste of his forthcoming new body of work, following on from his 2024 release Wouldn’t It Be Good. New single  I Am Fire finds Pete channelling powerful emotives and tranquil arrangements with a nod to one of his favourite guitar sounds, as he elaborates, “I just bought a Gibson 1971 Classical guitar before I recorded I Am Fire and I knew this guitar had to be on this song. I love the classical guitar sound Rodriguez uses on his recordings, and it’s that same 60s/70s classical guitar sound that I was going for. The guitar created a real mood on the song that works well with the lyrics.”
