Phil Jamieson isn’t easing into his next chapter — he’s launching it at full altitude. The new single ‘Weekends’ landed on 10 April and sophomore album 10Charlie set for August 14, the former Grinspoon frontman is mapping out his most ambitious solo era yet.

‘Weekends’ feels like a doorway rather than a statement. Built on ambient guitar textures and that instantly recognisable vocal, it leans into intimacy without losing movement — a song that drifts but never disconnects. Jamieson frames it as a place as much as a feeling, somewhere you can arrive at regardless of the day, where conversations stretch and meaning shifts.

Stream it HERE.

That sense of openness runs through 10Charlie. Reuniting with producer Oscar Dawson and pulling in collaborators like Davey Lane, the record pushes deeper into Jamieson’s storytelling instincts — meditative one moment, restless the next. It’s a body of work shaped by turbulence but not defined by it, balancing reflection with a forward pull that feels deliberate.

To carry it across the country, Jamieson is launching PJ AIR, a sprawling national tour that touches down in every corner of Australia. More than 40 shows across cities and regional pockets alike, the run leans into the venues that built his audience in the first place — pubs, theatres, breweries — spaces where songs land closer and stories travel further.

For Jamieson, this isn’t just scale for the sake of it. It’s a recalibration. After decades fronting one of Australia’s defining alternative bands, his solo work feels less like a departure and more like a narrowing of focus — the same voice, now turned inward and then projected back out.

Go HERE for tickets to the tour.
