Fleshwater Announce 2026 Australian Tour

Fleshwater return to Australia following the release of their new album, '2000: In Search of the Endless Sky,' and tours with Deftones and The Mars Volta.

American genre-defying heavy act Fleshwater are returning to Australia in November for a huge national tour.

The band made their Australian debut in November 2024, playing in intimate venues after being unable to perform at New Bloom Festival earlier that year.

Now, they return after a massive twelve months that include the release of their acclaimed second album, 2000: In Search of the Endless Sky, and tours with Deftones and The Mars Volta, as well as performances at this year’s Coachella.

The tour begins at Brisbane’s The Triffid on Thursday, 5 November. It continues at Sydney’s Liberty Hall on Saturday, 7 November, Melbourne’s 170 Russell on Sunday, 8 November, Adelaide’s Lion Arts Factory on Wednesday, 11 November, and concludes at Perth’s Magnet House on Thursday, 12 November.

For Fleshwater’s upcoming Australian shows, they’ll be accompanied by fellow US heavy outfit Ingrown and Sydney’s own Secret World, who have become one of Australia’s most exciting emerging hardcore bands.

Pre-sale tickets will be available on Thursday, 25 June, at 11 am AEST, followed by the general sale on Friday, 26 June, at 11 am local time. You can find more ticketing information on the Destroy All Lines website.

Born as a side project featuring members of Vein.fm, Fleshwater quickly developed into a band to watch. With their distinctive blend of grunge, alternative rock, shoegaze, and hardcore, the band possess a sound that’s both nostalgic and contemporary.

The band unveiled their debut album, We’re Not Here to Be Loved, in 2022 and earned appearances at major festivals like Lollapalooza, Riot Fest, Sick New World, and Sound & Fury. With a new album and plenty of touring happening this year, it’s finally Australia’s turn to be a part of the fun.
