Josh Pyke and his band are hitting stages for the first time in six months with a string of theatre shows, taking in  Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, and Sydney. After finishing a critically acclaimed tour on his album Only Sparrows, and receiving three ARIA nominations for his single No One Wants A Lover, Pyke is making a brief live appearance before disappearing to write new material.

On the tour, Pyke will be tinkering with new and old material from  across his various  albums and EPs. His collection of theatre shows will be intimate and exclusive, with limited seating and perfect acoustics. Support will come from Australia's renowned storytelling songstress Gossling and young folk musician Jackson McLaren and his band The Triple Threat.

The tour will take in The Forum, Melbourne Friday 11 May; Elder Hall, University of Adelaide Saturday 12; The Tivoli, Brisbane Friday 18; and York Theatre, Seymour Centre, Sydney Saturday 19.
