Tuesday, 23 June 2026
Written by Jon Stickler
James Blake will take his Trying Times Tour to Australia later this year.
The Grammy and Mercury Prize-winning British producer, songwriter and musician will head Down Under for the first time since 2019, with shows in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne scheduled on December 1, 2 and 5, respectively. He'll follow that with two shows in Japan on December 8 and 9.
Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time on Friday (June 26) for Australia and July 11 for Japan.
Blake recently completed the North American leg of the tour and plays shows across Europe and the UK in the autumn. Tickets for those dates are on sale now.
The tour takes its name from his latest album, his highest-charting release to date, which arrived in March. Last month, he performed the title track exclusively for the visual music platform COLORSxSTUDIOS.
