Alt-pop powerhouse Blondshell (Sabrina Teitelbaum) is heading back to Australia next year, with Frontier Touring confirming a run of east coast headline shows in February 2026.

The Los Angeles singer-songwriter, last here for Laneway Festival in 2024, will play Sydney’s Factory Theatre on Wednesday 4 February, Brisbane’s Crowbar on Thursday 5 February, and Melbourne’s Max Watt’s on Saturday 7 February. Joining all shows is Sydney-based indie-rock riser total tommy.

“I’ve been wanting to go back to Australia since we were there at the beginning of 2024! It’s so far away, so we don’t get to go enough and it makes it so special when we do get the chance. I’m really excited,” Blondshell said of the upcoming return.

Backseat Mafia caught her intimate 2024 Oxford Art Factory set, a performance that underscored her blend of raw honesty and biting humour long before her second album catapulted her into one of the year’s most acclaimed new voices.

Her self-titled 2023 debut introduced her sharp lyricism and wry humour, with tracks like “Veronica Mars” and “Salad” earning acclaim. She followed it with If You Asked For A Picture (2025), a record praised by Rolling Stone, Consequence, Pitchfork and Billboard as one of the year’s finest. The album expanded on the promise of her debut, pairing autobiographical storytelling with surging ‘90s rock guitars and striking harmonies.

Blondshell’s year has been relentless, with her US, UK and European tour dates, a TV slot on Jimmy Kimmel Live! performing “T&A,” and shows alongside Queens of the Stone Age and Fontaines D.C. Now, Australian fans will have the chance to hear her sophomore record in person.

Frontier Members presale kicks off Friday 12 September (12pm AEST), with general on sale opening Monday 15 September (1pm AEST). Tickets via frontiertouring.com/blondshell.
