WILL VARLEY & DAVE HAUSE, AUSTRALIAN TOUR 2027

<p>Two of the finest songwriters from either side of the Atlantic will hit the road in Australia together</p><p>this February, for eight shows sure to be masterclasses in songwriting and storytelling.</p><p><br></p><p>After his hugely successful tour with Beans on Toast in January 2026, Will Varley returns to Australia</p><p>for a second time, joined by his pal Dave Hause for a very special double headline tour.</p><p><br></p><p>When the late, great Phil May of The Pretty Things, cited as a major influence by David Bowie and</p><p>Jimi Hendrix, began curating songs for the band&rsquo;s final studio album, alongside covers of Muddy</p><p>Waters, Sheryl Crow and Robert Johnson, he included a song by British singer-songwriter Will Varley.</p><p>Along with a growing army of followers around the world, May felt the sheer depth to Will&rsquo;s songs,</p><p>something that has always set him apart and propelled his music far and wide. Rich, lyrical tales that</p><p>speak of universal truths, hard touring, and the rebuilding of minds.</p><p><br></p><p>Will&rsquo;s seventh studio album, Machines Will Never Learn to Make Mistakes Like Me, was released in</p><p>2025 and reached No. 4 on the UK Americana Albums Chart. Featuring collaborations with the likes</p><p>of Bastille and Billy Bragg, Rolling Stone described the record as &ldquo;beautiful songs for difficult times&rdquo;,</p><p>while Americana UK called it &ldquo;a high-class album from a singer-songwriter at the peak of his craft.&rdquo;</p><p><br></p><p>Nearly 30 years into his career, Dave Hause is a Philadelphia-bred singer-songwriter whose work</p><p>blends punk rock, Americana, folk and heartland rock. A former member of punk band The Loved</p><p>Ones, Hause has forged an acclaimed solo career on melodic, anthemic and deeply honest</p><p>songwriting. He has shared the stage with artists including The Gaslight Anthem, Social Distortion,</p><p>Alkaline Trio and The Avett Brothers. Rolling Stone called Hause an expert at blending &ldquo;introspective,</p><p>often edgy, Americana lyricism with the most irresistible of pop-rock hooks.&rdquo;</p><p><br></p><p>Hause&rsquo;s songs have always been rooted in tangible reality, of emotion, of environment, of</p><p>circumstance. Since releasing his debut album, Resolutions, in 2011, the Philadelphia-born</p><p>songwriter has poured his whole heart, soul and life into his music. His latest studio record, ...and</p><p>The Mermaid, finds him revisiting the urgency and raw energy of his punk roots, backed by his</p><p>occasional band, The Mermaid.</p><p><br></p><p>Both artists have toured relentlessly over the past few years, building fiercely loyal audiences and</p><p>becoming understated icons of the alternative folk, punk and Americana canon. This double</p><p>headline tour brings the two songwriters together for the first time. A rare chance to catch these</p><p>much-loved artists on the same bill, for what promise to be truly unforgettable nights of music.</p><hr><p style="text-align: center;"><br></p><p><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><strong><span style="font-size: 18px;">TICKETING INFO</span></strong>&nbsp;</span></p><p>Please have a digital or printed copy of your ticket ready on arrival, along with a valid photo ID.
