Baker Boy is bringing his high-energy Baked Summer Tour to Newcastle, with the multi-award-winning Yolŋu artist set to take over King St Warehouse in January 2027.
Presented by triple j, the 19-date regional tour will see Baker Boy travel across Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, bringing his energetic blend of rap, dance and Yidaki to communities around the country.
The revamped live show promises a non-stop celebration, with plenty of dance breaks and the infectious energy that has become a hallmark of Baker Boy’s performances.
The tour follows a huge year for the artist, who is keen to bring a fresh era of his live show to regional audiences, including fans who may have already caught one of his headline performances.
The tour arrives following the release of the deluxe edition of DJANDJAY, Baker Boy’s critically acclaimed 2025 album.
The record has earned five ARIA Award nominations, including Best Solo Artist and Best Hip Hop/Rap Release, as well as three National Indigenous Music Awards earlier this year for Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Film Clip of the Year.
Since breaking through in 2017, Baker Boy has become one of Australia’s most celebrated contemporary artists, building a career around music, dance and culture.
His debut album Gela won five ARIA Awards, including Album of the Year, while other career highlights include being named Young Australian of the Year in 2019, performing at the AFL Grand Final alongside Snoop Dogg and taking home Musician of the Year at the 2025 GQ Men of the Year Awards.
Baker Boy will perform at King St Warehouse in Newcastle on Saturday 16 January 2027. For tickets and tour information, visit bakerboyofficial.com/bakedsummer.
