Hazlett is finally coming home. After years of quietly building a global fanbase from his adopted home in Stockholm, the Brisbane-born indie-folk artist has announced his first-ever headline tour across Australia and New Zealand, landing in January and February 2026. It’s a long-awaited moment for fans who’ve followed him through the soft ache of Bloom Mountain to the tender honesty of his latest release, last night you said you missed me.
This isn’t just another tour, it’s a full-circle moment. Hazlett’s songs have always carried the emotional weight of distance, memory, and unspoken longing, so the name Coming Home Tour couldn’t feel more right. And with shows already sold out across Europe, North America and the UK, it’s clear people are craving what he brings: introspective, atmospheric music that hits like a letter you forgot you wrote to yourself.
After supporting Noah Kahan at BST Hyde Park and wrapping a huge international run, Hazlett’s finally making his way back to local stages. The tour includes stops in Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, and Auckland, giving fans their first real chance to experience his live magic up close. You know the kind of gig that makes a room full of strangers feel like old friends? That’s the vibe.
With a sound he describes as Indie Ballroom Folk, Hazlett has carved out his own lane, equal parts warmth and melancholy. His voice drapes itself over guitar lines like an old jumper: soft, frayed in places, but incredibly comforting. There’s nothing performative here. Just emotional storytelling, with a quiet confidence that feels earned.
If last night you said you missed me gave you a little lump in your throat, you’re not alone. Critics have praised the album for its emotional range, balancing ease and agitation, regret and nostalgia, without ever losing its gentleness. It’s music that asks you to sit with your feelings for a while, and maybe even find a bit of peace in them.
Here are the confirmed tour dates:
- Perth – Tuesday 27 January (Astor Theatre)
- Brisbane – Saturday 31 January (Princess Theatre)
- Sydney – Tuesday 3 February (Metro Theatre)
- Melbourne – Thursday 5 February (Corner Hotel)
- Adelaide – Friday 6 February (Lion Arts Factory)
- Auckland – Sunday 8 February (The Tuning Fork)
Presale starts on Thursday 30 October at 10am local time, with general tickets available from Friday 31 October at 11am.
Hazlett’s live sets are known for their intimacy. It’s not about big stage moments or flashy production, it’s about atmosphere. One person, a guitar, a voice that wavers in the right places, and a room full of people who just get it. Whether you’ve been following his journey since the early SoundCloud days or just discovered him on a rainy playlist scroll, this tour is your moment.
