Jelly Roll Announces Debut Australia & New Zealand Headline Tour Dates

Just one week after announcing his debut Australian appearances, Jelly Roll has expanded his first visit Down Under with a string of headline dates.

The Tennessee native first detailed his forthcoming trek down to Australia on July 31, with the nascent Strummingbird Festival announcing they had secured both Jelly Roll and Shaboozey for the headliners of their inaugural 2025 events.

The three-date affair plans to visit the Sunshine Coast at the end of October, with a pair of dates scheduled across Newcastle and Perth at the start of November. A raft of local and international acts are also set to fill out the festival’s lineup.

Now, Jelly Roll’s upcoming visit has grown even larger, with Australian headline dates confirmed for Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney. The fittingly-titled Down Under tour will wrap on Nov. 8 following a one-off appearance in Auckland, New Zealand.

Fellow Strummingbird co-headliner Shaboozey will be joining Jelly Roll at these newly-announced dates, while Illinois’ Drew Baldridge will also round out the bill.

Both of the top-billed acts have received noted fame in Australia in recent times. While Shaboozey’s ubiquitous 2024 single “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” topped the Australian ARIA Singles charts last year, Jelly Roll debuted at No. 19 on the Albums charts in 2024 with his latest album, Beautifully Broken.

Their newly-announced dates come just months after the arrival of the collaborative single “Amen,” though no confirmation has been given as to whether the pair may perform the track together when in Australia or New Zealand.
