Watty Thompson brings his Under The Stars Tour to Maitland, delivering an intimate night of heartfelt storytelling and indie Australiana at The Junkyard.
Australian indie bush bard Watty is hitting the road this May with a string of solo shows, celebrating the release of his reflective new single Under The Stars.
The tour will see him strip things back for a warm, personal performance style that has cemented him as one of the country’s most endearing storytellers.
The new single arrives as a gentle reminder to slow down and breathe in a world overloaded with digital noise.
Built around mindfulness, self-care, and the simple magic of looking upward, Under The Stars continues Watty’s tradition of turning quiet moments into moving musical reflections, something fans embraced on his 2023 self-titled debut album and recent single Rock & Roll.
On this east-coast run, Watty will travel through Victoria and New South Wales, delivering rare solo shows that promise straight-from-the-heart performances known to nudge audiences toward both joy and tears. Each night invites listeners into the kind of storytelling that lingers long after the lights come up.
Maitland fans are in for an especially cosy evening, with Watty set to perform at The Junkyard. It’s a chance to see a songwriter at his most exposed and expressive, sharing songs built from honesty, reflection and a deep appreciation for life’s quieter corners.
Joining him for the night is special guest and local rising star, Izzy Maeve, adding another layer of warmth to the lineup.
Watty Thompson: Under The Stars Tour arrives in Maitland on Wednesday, 27 May, running from 6:45pm–10pm at The Junkyard. Ticket information and event details are available via wattythompson.com.
