Birds Of Tokyo Announce 'Birdsongs' Symphony Orchestra Australian Tour

Perth favourites Birds Of Tokyo are going on tour this August and September, but it’s no ordinary run of concerts: the Aussie rockers will be joined by orchestras at each stop of the tour.

Birdsongs is the name of the show, and with songs already as anthemic as Plans, Lanterns, and Good Lord, symphony orchestras with Birds Of Tokyo really is the perfect fit.

Birds Of Tokyo performed at the 2021 AFL Grand Final with the West Australian Symphony Orchestra, and that experience has bled into their future plans, which resulted in the Birdsongs run.

Beginning the tour in Perth on 25 and 26 August, the band will then trek to Brisbane, Hobart, Melbourne and Sydney. Every stop, barring Hobart, contains multiple dates. Find all the dates below.

Members’ pre-sale tickets go on sale on Monday, 3 April, at 9 am local time. Sign up here to access the pre-sale.

General sale tickets go on sale on Wednesday, 5 April, at 9 am local time via the Birds Of Tokyo website.

“We are beyond excited to be working with Australia’s finest musicians like this,” founding member Adam Spark said in a statement. “It’s like a dream come true for us, and we can’t wait to create something really special together.”

“Performing some of the orchestrated songs at the 2021 AFL Grand Final with WASO was a truly memorable moment for us, and we can’t wait to bring the full Birds of Tokyo and Symphony Orchestra experience to our fans across Australia.”

Birds Of Tokyo concerts range from explosive energy to spine-tingling moments of intimacy, making them captivating live performers whose sweeping and dynamic songs are a powerful match for a full symphony orchestra.
