UK pop star announces Aussie tour after two-year hiatus
Keeping a relatively low profile over last two years, the 28-year-old has returned to the scene with his new single Survive, complimenting his special appearance at Glastonbury Festival in late June.
In true Capaldi style, the singer declared, 'My name's Lewis Capaldi and I'm f**king back, baby.' Lewis Capaldi will return to Australia in December. Credit: BANG - Entertainment News
The star will travel to New Zealand in November, before touching down in Brisbane in early December where he will continue a string of singular performances in Sydney, Melbourne, and Adelaide, before playing his final tour show at Perth's RAC Arena on December 17.
Aussies last saw Capaldi in action during Falls Festival in the summer of 2019/2020.
Following his recent pause on live performances, the Before You Go singer returned to the stage in his home country as a guest of mental health charity CALM in celebration of Mental Health Awareness Week.
The self-deprecating singer has historically proven he doesn't take himself too seriously, but in 2023 was forced to address his mental health concerns while on stage at Glastonbury as symptoms of his Tourette's Syndrome overcame him.
'I feel like I'll be taking another wee break over the next couple of weeks,' he told fans at the time.
'So you probably won't see much of me for the rest of year, maybe even. But when I do come back and when I do see you, I hope you're still up for watching us.'

On June 27, Capaldi closed the loop and reassured supporters at the festival he hadn't forgotten about them in a powerful 30-minute set.
'Second time's a charm on this one,' he said.
'I just wanted to come and finish what I couldn't finish last time.'
Fans who purchased tickets to the singer-songwriter's cancelled 2023 tour in Australia will be eligible for a Past Ticket Holders Presale on July 10.

Listen Out: Australian music festival cancelled for 2025 but announces ‘one-off curated parties'
Organisers of an annual Australian music festival, which has attracted the likes of Denzel Curry, Flume and Diplo on lineups over the years, have confirmed the event won't be going ahead this year. Listen Out has been cancelled for 2025, with a post shared on social media saying it could happen due to not being able to curate a 'cultural and energetic' lineup that 'flows' between musicians and fans. ' breath. This one's tough. Listen Out won't be going ahead this year,' the post said. 'We've always tried to build something special where the lineup reflects the culture and the energy flows both ways between the artists and last few years have been tough. 'So, we're hitting pause on Listen Out as you know it. But we're not going anywhere.' Instead, the team behind the popular festival will introduce Listen Out Presents. A 'one off carefully curated parties in killer locations around Australia all year long'. Perth has been confirmed as a location for this featuring 'some of the best artists in the world'. 'We're still here for the good in a new way. We're not saying anything now,' the post continued. Disappointed music lovers took to the comments section of the post with messages of outrage. 'This is not okay,' one fan said. Another fan said: 'Had me excited for it.' 'That's a joke, where are all the good festivals going? I was counting on listen out to pull though ugh,' a third added. Some people felt jipped by the fact the festival had last month teased the event and encouraged fans to 'Sign up for Listen Out '25' for updates. The cancellation comes after last year's headliners pulled out within days of the event. South African R&B singer Tyla and US rapper Flo Milli cancelled their Australian trip just two days before they were set to take the stage at venues in Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and Sydney. Aussie artist Lithe and American DJ John Summit also pulled out. Summit addressed his cancellation in a TikTok video after the event happened saying: 'A lot of American artists dropped from this festival for 'personal reasons''.

Best-selling Aussie underwear brand just launched a limited edition colour and shoppers are obsessed
Australian underwear brand First Thing has just launched a moody new limited edition colour across its cult-favourite underwear styles and it's the kind of wardrobe update your winter layering has been begging for. The new Midnight shade, a rich, inky navy tone, is available in the brand's four most-loved silhouettes: the viral Strapless Bra, The Everyday Bra, The Bikini and The G-String. Designed to be flattering, functional and unbelievably soft, these are everyday essentials you'll want to wear on repeat. And they look as good as they feel. Sydney model Jess Purchase stars in the campaign, shot on a classic Paddington terrace by filmmaker and photographer Phoebe Wolfe, embodying that effortless Aussie-girl cool. If you've ever searched for comfortable underwear that actually looks good, chances are you've come across First Thing. The homegrown label has made a name for itself by delivering next-level comfort, thanks to the cloud-soft modal fabric and thoughtfully constructed cuts that work with your body, not against it. Each piece in the range offers something slightly different, depending on your vibe. The Everyday Bra ($59) is a non-padded underwire style with butter-soft fabric, perfect under tees or tanks. It's sleek and supportive without the bulk. The Strapless Bra ($59) has developed a bit of a cult following for its ability to stay put (seriously) without sacrificing comfort. With a barely-there underwire and smooth recycled fabric, it's the rare strapless bra that doesn't feel like a punishment. Prefer a matching set? First Thing's modal bottoms are a no-brainer. Both the Bikini and G-String styles ($25 each) feature the brand's signature V-shaped waistband that adapts to your shape and won't dig in. Breathable, flattering and totally fuss-free. And in Midnight? They feel even more luxe. The deep navy shade is timeless and pairs perfectly with neutral tones, black, grey or denim. It's also great under winter layers for those who want a more refined take on everyday basics, no neon straps peeking out here. Early reviews say the fit is as flawless as ever and the new hue is even better in person.
