Selling out his headline shows this January when he was in town for the very first time for Laneway Festival, soul prince Leon Bridges has once again announced two special Splendour In The Grass sideshows this July.

The stunning gospel croon of Bridges — and his commitment to always perfect, era-authentic outfits — have been lauded the world over, even leading the Texan native to an event honouring Ray Charles this February at the White House, where he performed for President Barack Obama.

Taking to Sydney's Enmore Theatre on Monday, 18 July and Melbourne's Forum Theatre on Tuesday, 19 July — both with songstress Ngaiire — Bridges will have his debut record, Coming Home, along for the trip.

Tickets for Leon Bridges' sideshows go on sale on Friday, 29 April from 10am.
