Australian singer-songwriter Kate Miller-Heidke is heading to Newcastle in 2027, bringing her biggest national tour yet to Civic Theatre as part of The Sirens and the Stars tour.

The extensive run will celebrate two major milestones in the artist’s career: her acclaimed new album The Kiss and the Abyss and the 20th anniversary of her platinum-selling debut, Little Eve.

The tour will take in capital cities and regional centres across Australia, with Newcastle among the stops on the east coast leg.

Known for blending pop, folk, opera and theatrical storytelling, Miller-Heidke has built a reputation for performances that move between soaring vocal moments, heartfelt emotion and unexpected humour.

The new album explores themes including modern technology, conspiracy theories, friendship, change and hope, with a darker gothic-folk sound that reconnects with her early musical influences.

The Newcastle performance will see Miller-Heidke revisit songs from Little Eve that she has not performed in years, alongside material from The Kiss and the Abyss and highlights from across her career.

Longtime collaborator and guitarist Keir Nuttall will join her on stage, with the show promising a mix of dramatic intensity, raw storytelling and vocal fireworks.

With five ARIA Awards to her name, a Eurovision appearance and a career spanning contemporary music, musical theatre and opera, Miller-Heidke remains one of Australia’s most distinctive performers.

Her work with Nuttall also includes the acclaimed musical Muriel’s Wedding: The Musical, which earned multiple Helpmann Awards.

Kate Miller-Heidke brings The Sirens and the Stars tour to Newcastle Civic Theatre on Saturday, 22 May 2027. Fans can join the mailing list and find ticket information at katemillerheidke.com.
