John Butler has added a huge number of dates to his previously announced Queensland shows, rounding it out into a national tour.
Spread across May and June, the singer-songwriter will tour through the east coast, as well as Western Australia. Additionally, Butler plans to film the Melbourne show for a global broadcast later on.
“It’s been a wacky ol’ year for all of us in so many ways and to be able to go out and play music for the community AND myself feels like a bit of good healing,” Butler said in a statement.
“When I take a look around the world and see how hard some folks are doing it at the moment this feels like a huge privilege.”
Butler was part of the Summersalt festival lineup alongside The Teskey Brothers, Cat Empire, Boy and Bear and Montaigne. The concert series saw the group tour a handful of venues nationwide.
Tickets for Butler’s national tour go on sale 9am local time this coming Monday (April 19).
