Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have unveiled the support for the Australian run of The Wild God Tour, announcing Aldous Harding as the opening act across all dates, a pairing that feels deliciously off-centre. NZ-born singer-songwriter Harding’s magnetic stillness and arrangements sit beautifully against the scale and emotional weight of Wild God, making her an…

Mumford & Sons have confirmed their Prizefighter Tour for 2026, marking a proper return to Australia after this year’s one-off Sydney Opera House show.
