Fresh from joining mgk on his recent arena tour, Missouri singer-songwriter honestav has announced his return to Australia for January 2027, bringing the Sweet American Boy Tour to local audiences.
The run coincides with the arrival of his new album and sees the genre-blurring artist swap arenas for a series of intimate club shows, offering fans a closer look at the emotionally candid songwriting that has fuelled his rise over the past two years.
Born Avrey Freeman in Pierce City, Missouri, honestav first broke through with 2024’s ‘I’d Rather Overdose’, a track that helped establish him as a distinctive voice among a new wave of artists drawing equally from alternative rock, emo rap and acoustic folk. His music reflects a broad range of influences, from Kurt Cobain and Green Day to XXXTentacion, Mac Miller and Noah Kahan, resulting in a sound that is both vulnerable and restless.
Since emerging, honestav has built a devoted audience through songs that confront loneliness, addiction and self-reflection with unflinching honesty. His recent stint supporting mgk introduced that approach to larger audiences, while the forthcoming Sweet American Boy Tour promises a more intimate setting for fans to connect with the songs that have made him one of the more intriguing young voices operating between genres.
With new music arriving and his profile continuing to grow, honestav’s return to Australia in early 2027 offers another chapter in the story of an artist steadily carving out a space entirely his own.
