Currently, he is scheduled to return to the stage on Aug. 1 as part of Canada's Veld Music Festival. The remainder of his current tour schedule sees him performing myriad shows throughout Europe and North and South America until November.
Timmy Trumpet first rose to fame as a trumpet for Australian duo the Stafford Brothers before going solo as a DJ while utilizing live trumpet in his sets.
His breakthrough single, 'Freaks,' was released in 2014, with the track – a collaboration with New Zealand's Savage – peaking at No. 3 in Australia and reaching the top ten in a handful of European countries.
In 2019, Timmy Trumpet also became the first musician to perform a DJ set in zero gravity, with the achievement made possible thanks to the European Space Agency and German music promoters BigCityBeats. 'It was like no other experience I've ever had before,' he explained at the time.
Timmy Trumpet released his debut album, Mad World, in 2020, and has frequently been listed as one of the top DJs in the world by DJ Mag, who listed the Australian at No. 5 in their 2024 list.

The rise of London Mediterranean, the style defining the capital's hottest restaurants
What is 'London Mediterranean' dining? It's a savvy blend of food from countries along the Mediterranean coast, mostly drawing inspiration from the likes of Portugal, Spain, France and Italy but there are often elements from the likes of Slovenia, Croatia, Greece, Turkey, and Lebanon too. It is a style that has become immensely popular of late, not just with restaurateurs but diners too. London Med – to shorten it from the off – is ultimately an amalgamation of cuisines. Menus that take flavours from Provence, an ingredient or two from Sifnos, and then add to them spices from Istanbul. And yes, this has happened for centuries. But there appears to have been a recent(ish) influx of restaurants of this style: super modern, inclusive and perhaps clearer about what comes from where. You might argue that some, like Morchella or Toklas, are roundly built on the notion. Others might be hailed as 'modern European', but that seems too broad a brush these days. And then there's the fact that all this happens in the UK, mostly London. As is always the case with food — unless you're in fascist Italy — there are no hard-and-fast rules with London Med. Chefs are just as likely to take ideas from Porto and Paris, but it's an easy term to distinguish and categorise, generally; in any case, all included will at least have a coastline on the sea in question. Here are 10 restaurants that could be defined as being London Mediterranean. Lita Lita was one of the standout restaurant openings in 2024. The food traverses Western Europe, though stops in Italy most of all by way of Sicilian red prawns and cacio e pepe. It might be London Med food in its purest form: the very best ingredients from the continent – UK too – cooked with unwavering skill, flair and expense. Head chef Luke Ahearne parted ways with the restaurant at the beginning of July but his menu and well-drilled team remains. And so, for now, the Fuentes bluefin tuna with corno peppers, coriander and capers is still one of London's best dishes; so too the strozzapreti with duck ragu. 7-9 Paddington Street, W1U 5QH, Perilla (and Morchella) Many in and around the restaurant industry ask why Perilla hasn't ever been awarded a Michelin star. The fact it hasn't been is a damning indictment on the guide. Consider Ben Marks' mussel tartare, which comes fine on top of 'yesterday's bread' and is soaked in the liquor from moules mariniere. Highly inventive and a lot of fun, much the same as the fried cod cheeks with curry sauce arriving with all manner of accoutrement. Here is the move: take half a cod cheek, cover it in a smidge of pickled gooseberry sauce, a little of the tartare and two slivers of sliced cornichon, then add to that a dollop of the curry and a sprinkling of fried capers. Email me if you find a better mouthful this side of Christmas. See also: Morchella, Perilla's sister restaurant. Get the spanikopita and the pork jowl there. 1-3 Green Lanes, N16 9BS, and 86 Rosebery Avenue, EC1R 4QY, Dove Dove just about fits in this list despite the fact it's not bound too readily to Mediterranean flavours as the others generally are. Don't order the burger: instead, have octopus gildas, lovely and Spanish-edged, and grilled trout which arrives with black olives and tomatoes. Lucky diners will also find a keen blend of Greece and Italy in the form of whipped fava beans with carosello cucumbers. And then French, as you might expect from chef-patron Jackson Boxer, is uncompromising. The roast chicken with Café de Paris butter is a grand dish to share. 31 Kensington Park Road, W11 2EU, Canal The Standard's restaurant critic David Ellis visited Canal not so long ago, his review of which coined the phrase 'London Mediterranean'. It was an idea I'd long pondered and Dominic Hamdy's latest venture shored it up. To eat? According to Ellis: 'There is a sense of unity throughout the menu that makes a bad order tricky: if you have the plate of pickles — various beetroots, very gently done, the oil and beet juice together like the interior of a lava lamp — you can happily have the cheerful crab doughnut, with its light dough and pink innards. Stracciatella, sitting in a pool of olive oil — liking olive oil is a requirement for liking here — might follow, with its gently blackened turrets of courgette.' 11b Woodfield Road, W9 2BA, Town Not all the dishes at Town qualify as 'London Med'. Remember London's past incarnation as a haven to XO sauce? Actually still alive and well. There are doses of shiso and miso and so on too. No bad thing. Still, Stevie Parle's latest restaurant, this one lavish and built with big money for celebs, draws as much on Europe as its own, home-grown ingredients. There's a mighty saffron risotto, Cornish crab with Neapolitan tomatoes, Scottish scallops in 'nduja butter, and clams from Kent cooked in sherry. These dishes are the definition of high-end modern dining in town. 26-29 Drury Lane, WC2B 5RL, Toklas Mostly Italian, really, but Toklas also brings in elements from elsewhere along the Med, including some Turkish food, which is befitting of London and enjoyable. The ingredients at Toklas are impressive, all sourced carefully, with real care and attention. This but with prices staying affordable: you could dine there, main course and a side or two to share, for less than £50 per head. Those who are able to splash out will do so when they see a good pork tonnato, crab bruschetta and excellently cooked lamb chops with salsa verde. A comforting, happy restaurant on the Strand, a part of the city where the vibes are mostly terrible. 1 Surrey Street, Temple, WC2R 2ND, Sune Where else but London could you, for the timid sum of £25, begin with a pig's head terrine before easing softly into a decent lamb köfte with harissa, labneh and coleslaw? How marvellous a proposition – and not in the way of a random buffet at a Home Counties service station. Sune is solid thanks to the steering of owners Honey Spencer and Charlie Sims, not to mention head chef Michael Robins, formerly of Hackney favourite Pidgin, still much missed. 129A Pritchard's Road, E2 9AP, Quo Vadis I had reservations about this one, but the powers that be pulled rank and, thinking about it, Quo Vadis works well here. It just predates the boom of the last little while by a countless number of years. Not that dishes such as salad nicoise, peach and courgette salad and spiced aubergine with feta and chickpeas have always been on the menu. Anyway, it's Jeremy Lee in the house, bringing fresh flavours before wonderful pies and towers of fruity meringue. Don't need to say much else (other than: please bring back the herb omelettes). 26-29 Dean Street, W1D 3LL, Mountain (and Brat) When Mountain opened, 'Welsh ingredients with a Basque accent' was a line uttered more than once. Tomos Parry is a chef who's been at the forefront of modern dining in London for years, ever since he opened Brat in 2018 and introduced London to the seemingly (but not really) simple practice of grilling turbot. Parry's cooking can be unmatched and at Mountain it's at its peak: spider crab omelettes; scarlet prawns grilled and then covered in lardo blankets. Big steaks to satisfy the quiet few who still operate with monstrous expense accounts. 16-18 Beak Street, W1F 9RD, Tasca Go and order the prawn and pork cachorrinho, a take on a sandwich from Porto, Portugal, which comes flat and grilled with Ossau Iratty (sheep's milk cheese from over there) and piri-piri oil. A phenomenal sandwich, up there with Jose Pizarro's bikini (grilled cheese, jamon and truffle) and – just about – the one at Ibai in the City with boudin noir, carabinero prawns and Tomme de Brebis. Tasca's is worth every bit of the £14 it costs. There is far more than a sandwich to explore, of course. This is a residency from Josh Dalloway and Sinead Murdoch, who are currently in situ at Cav, a wine bar in Bethnal Green from the team behind Oranj and Half Cut Market. 255 Paradise Row, E2 9LE, @

Foreign couples flock to Denmark to get married. Copenhagen wants to save room for locals
COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Facing complex bureaucracy at home in Poland, Magdalena Kujawińska and her Colombian fiancé Heinner Valenzuela traveled to Copenhagen to become husband and wife. 'We realized that it's not that easy to get married in Poland,' the 30-year-old Kujawińska said as the couple waited for their 10-minute ceremony at the Danish capital's 19th-century City Hall. 'You need a certificate that you are not married,' she said. "We tried to get it from Colombia, but it's only valid for three months, and it couldn't get to Poland from Colombia in three months. It was just impossible for us.' The couple, who live in Krakow, had been engaged for more than three years when Kujawińska heard about Denmark's relatively relaxed marriage laws from a colleague. Working with an online wedding planner, the couple prepared the necessary documents. 'And in four days, we had the decision that the marriage could be done here,' a smiling Kujawińska said. Copenhagen attracts couples from around the world Couples who don't live in Denmark, both mixed- and same-sex, are increasingly getting married in the Scandinavian country — prompting some to dub Copenhagen the 'Las Vegas of Europe.' The head of the marriage office at Copenhagen City Hall, Anita Okkels Birk Thomsen, said that about 8,000 wedding ceremonies were performed there last year. Of those, some 5,400 of them were for couples in which neither partner was a Danish resident. 'That's almost double what we saw five years ago,' she said. 'They come from all over the world.' City wants to ensure room for locals But the city sees a downside to that: demand for ceremonies at City Hall now far exceeds the number of slots available. Mia Nyegaard, the Copenhagen official in charge of culture and leisure, said in a statement to The Associated Press that the 'significant rise' in the number of foreign couples getting married in the capital 'poses challenges for Copenhagen-based couples wishing to get married.' Local authorities plan to take action. Nyegaard said about 40% of wedding slots available at City Hall will be reserved for Copenhagen residents starting from the end of October. While booking a slot there is the most obvious way to get married in the city, arranging a ceremony with a private registrar is also an option, and that won't be affected. Copenhagen lawmakers will look after the summer break at what else they can do to relieve overall pressure on wedding capacity in the city. Liberal laws Denmark's marriage laws are liberal in several ways. In 1989, the country became the world's first to allow the registration of same-sex civil unions. The legalization of same-sex marriage followed in 2012. For unions of all kinds, Denmark — unlike many other European countries — doesn't require a birth certificate or proof of single status to obtain a certificate that grants the right to get married in Denmark within four months. Officials might, in cases where divorce papers don't show clearly that a divorce has been finalized, ask for a civil status certificate. Applications to Denmark's agency of family law cost 2,100 kroner ($326), and couples are issued with a certificate within five working days if they satisfy the requirements. Non-resident couples can travel to Denmark and get married with just a valid passport and, if required, a tourist visa. 'We get that thing like, 'Are you sure we do not need a birth certificate?' And we go, 'Yes,'' said Rasmus Clarck Sørensen, director of Getting Married in Denmark. Clarck Sørensen, a Dane, began the wedding planning business with his British wife back in 2014. 'In the last 20, 30 years, people just meet more across borders," he said. 'Marriage rules are often made for two people of the same country getting married.' 'They kind of piled on patches onto marriage law, and a lot of people get trapped in those patches,' he added. His online company's 'Complete Service' package, priced at 875 euros ($1,014), includes help gathering all the necessary documents, processing the certificate application and organizing the date of the ceremony. The business says it helped over 2,600 couples last year. Copenhagen, easily Denmark's biggest city with the country's best transport links, is the most popular location and so far appears to be the only one struggling with demand. Any changes to the city's rules will come too late to bother newlyweds Kujawińska and Valenzuela, who are now busy planning a celebration in Poland with family and friends. 'It means a lot for us because we've been waiting a lot for this,' Kujawińska said. 'We're really happy.'
