ARIA-winning musician Tones and I is bringing a new national tour to Newcastle.
The headline tour across Australia and New Zealand was announced on Monday April 8.
"I'm not going to lie, it's been a long time since I have done a headlining tour around AUS and NZ, I have hope you'll come and see this show you know we won't let you down," the singer wrote on social media.
Tones and I was most-recently in Newcastle for the Pink concert in February. The performer warmed up the crowd wearing a very anti-pop star hi-vis jacket. Dance Monkey and Fly Away had the crowd in a buoyant mood for the main event.
