Pete Murray is about to enjoy a busy year, today announcing a massive 55-date acoustic tour across the country.

The tour announcement arrives as the Australian troubadour drops his new single, I Am Fire. The track is the second taste of an upcoming new body of work from Murray, following the 2024 single Wouldn’t It Be Good.

He said of the new single, “The song is inspired by normal people who stand up against regimes and who stand up for humanity and risk their own lives to save others. They are the real heroes of the world.

“I have used elements, emotions and feelings to describe these people. The courage they have is enormous and the love they give is forever. This song is also about normal heroes like Mums and Dads who are always there for their kids.”

You can check out the single below.

Murray will be joined by special guests Rachael Fahim and Brett Wood for his upcoming tour, which begins in May and ends in September.

Murray’s most extensive tour to date will see him play in “every pocket of Australia.” He’ll perform in capital cities and regional areas, starting in Darwin and journeying through the Northern Territory, Victoria, Tasmania, Queensland, New South Wales, South Australia, the ACT, and Western Australia. All the dates and venues are below.

Fans can register for pre-sale tickets via Pete Murray’s website. The pre-sale begins on Tuesday, 18 March, at 10 am local time, before the general sale starts on Friday, 21 March, at 10 am local time. You can find more ticketing information on his website.

Murray said of the 55-date tour, “I’ve never done a solo tour in this country before, so it’s been on the cards for a while.

“I’ve done it overseas and people love it - so it’s about time I did it in my own country. There will be some storytelling of my songs, my life and career. The shows will be very intimate.”
