Houston-born singer, songwriter, record producer and multi-instrumentalist Casey Thai Luong (known professionally as Keshi) has announced his return to Australia.

The Like I Need U singer last performed in Australia in November 2022, performing in venues such as UNSW Roundhouse in Sydney, outdoor makeshift venue The Palace Foreshore in Melbourne, and Eatons Hill Hotel in Brisbane. This time around, Keshi has moved up to arenas.

Keshi’s antipodean tour dates begin in 2025 at Auckland’s Spark Arena on Friday, 7 February, followed by Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena (Monday, 10 February), the Brisbane Entertainment Centre (Tuesday, 11 February), and Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on Friday, 14 February.

Fans can access three pre-sales to buy tickets early to Keshi’s upcoming tour before the general sale opens.

The first pre-sales are the artist and Mastercard pre-sale, both of which open at 9 am tomorrow (Tuesday, 23 July). The Live Nation pre-sale kicks off at 10 am local time on Thursday, 25 July, before the general sale opens at 10 am local time via the Live Nation website. You can find more ticketing information for Australia here and New Zealand here.

Calling back to his 2020 song, more, where he sings: “In a dream that I had where I sing in arenas,” Keshi is touring in support of his forthcoming second album, Requiem. The album has been led by the single Say.

Requiem will be released on Friday, 13 September, via Island Records. Keshi burst onto the scene with the EP trilogy skeletons (2019), bandaids (2020), and always (2020) before finding further fame with his 2022 album, GABRIEL.

The album amassed billions of streams fuelled by the hugely successful tracks LIMBO, UNDERSTAND, GET IT, and more.

In addition to the album’s success, Keshi was crowned the Top New Artist Debut of 2022, scoring “the highest first-week sales of the year for a debut album”, landing him in the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 and Top Five of the Top Album Sales Chart.
