Pete Murray is bringing his signature summer soundtrack back to Newcastle this December, kicking off his Longing Summer Tour, celebrating his brand-new album Longing, marking his eighth studio record and first independent full-length release in nearly 20 years.
The new album showcases a decade of songwriting that Murray has carefully pieced together over time. The result is a deeply personal collection of songs that balance warmth, optimism, and reflection.
From heartfelt acoustic ballads to soaring, singalong anthems, Longing captures the spirit of summer through stories of love, determination, and resilience.
Fans across the country will have the chance to hear these songs live as Murray takes his tour to regional venues along the coast, from Miranda to Coffs Harbour, and Toronto.
Known for his warm stage presence and easy connection with crowds, his shows promise to be a perfect blend of new material and classic hits like Feeler, Better Days, and Opportunity.
With more than 1.2 million album sales and over 20 years of touring behind him, Pete Murray remains one of Australia’s most enduring artists.

His latest chapter, Longing, represents both a return to his roots and a fresh burst of creativity, a reminder of why audiences keep coming back, summer after summer.
Pete Murray’s Longing Summer Tour kicks off in Newcastle on Thursday, 18 December. Tickets are on sale now via petemurray.com.
