This is singer-songwriter Pete’s largest tour ever, and with most shows being all ages, the extensive solo acoustic tour will see him visit plenty of markets he’s never been to, rolling through nearly every corner of Australia in 2025, with a whopping 55 shows lined up across regional Australia as well as capital cities from May through to early September.
Launching on Friday May 9 in Darwin, Pete will journey across the Northern Territory, Victoria, Tasmania, Queensland, Victoria, New South Wales, the ACT and Western Australia for these special intimate shows, with the mammoth run ultimately concluding on Sunday September 7 in the Blue Mountains.
Pete will be supported nationally by Rachael Fahim and Brett Wood.
I Am Fire offers fans a second taste of a brand new body of work from Pete Murray, following on from his 2024 single Wouldn’t It Be Good. It channels powerful emotions and tranquil arrangements with a nod to one of his favourite guitar sounds, as he elaborates, “I just bought a Gibson 1971 Classical guitar before I recorded I Am Fire and I knew this guitar had to be on this song. I love the classical guitar sound Rodriguez uses on his recordings, and it’s that same 60s/70s classical guitar sound that I was going for. The guitar created a real mood on the song that works well with the lyrics.”
“The song is inspired by normal people who stand up against regimes and who stand up for humanity and risk their own lives to save others,” Pete adds. “They are the real heroes of the world. I have used elements, emotions and feeling to describe these people. The courage they have is enormous and the love they give is forever. This song is also about normal heroes like mums and Dads who are always there for their kids.”
Tickets for all shows are available for purchase here, with registration for presale tickets now, and presale kicking off on Tuesday 18th March from 10am local time. Sales for the general public commence Friday 21st March.
