Grammy-nominated, Platinum-selling UK sensation Jorja Smith has announced that she will be touring Australia in October.

Smith touches down in Melbourne on Tuesday 8 October for an all ages performance at Margaret Court Arena, before heading to Adelaide’s Hindley Street Music Hall on Tuesday 10 October. The following week on Tuesday 15 October, she will appear at Sydney’s ICC Sydney Theatre in the heart of Darling Harbour for an unmissable performance as part of SXSW Sydney® 2024.

SXSW Sydney badgeholders can gain access to Jorja Smith’s Sydney performance by registering here.

Jorja Smith kicked off her career with the release of her debut single, ‘Blue Lights,’ in 2016, which garnered significant attention for its commentary on social issues and showcased her distinctive vocal talent. This was followed by her debut EP, ‘Project 11,’ later that year.

In 2018, Smith released her critically acclaimed debut album, ‘Lost & Found,’ featuring a blend of R&B, soul, and jazz influences. Tracks like ‘Teenage Fantasy’ and ‘Where Did I Go?’ highlighted her ability to craft personal and relatable songs.

Smith has received numerous awards and nominations, including the BRIT Critics’ Choice Award in 2018 and a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist in 2019. She has collaborated with artists such as Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and Stormzy, expanding her influence within the industry.
