I can\u2019t fucking wait!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A world-class live entertainer, Evans has been praised for his energy. Rising from solo star to international headliner, including a spectacular CMC Rocks QLD 2022 appearance, which saw him front the sold-out event alongside Kane Brown and Brad Paisley, Evans blends Nashville\u2019s southern charm with a down-to-earth Australian spirit.<\/p>\n<p>The tour will be in support of\u00a0<em>Steel Town<\/em>, his second album out March 20th. A nod to his hometown of Newcastle, the record digs deep into themes of home, healing, and renewed hope across eleven tracks. It\u2019s his most complete expression as an artist so far \u2013 completely true to himself, and yet relevant to all.<\/p>\n<div class=\"observer-sub-form justify-content-center my-3 p-0 d-flex align-items-stretch bg-dark text-white\">\n<div class=\"observer-sub-form-info p-3\" style=\"justify-content: start;\">\n<h2 class=\"h5 mb-0 observer-title\">Love Music?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"observer-desc mb-2\"> Get your daily dose of everything happening in Australian\/New Zealand music and globally.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"spinner d-none\"> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>To celebrate, he has today released the album\u2019s title track.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"op-interactive\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/6jRRqFZkAYYuRXyLmoW0f1?utm_source=generator\" width=\"400\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-testid=\"embed-iframe\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>A cinematic love letter to his roots, \u201cSteel Town\u201d is peppered with quick hitting autobiographical detail and sung like a homecoming triumph. The country-rock epic welcomes hazy memories back into view; crashed cars and first gigs speed by with the acoustic-guitar driven energy of a coastal-country Springsteen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSteel Town is about where I come from and why I am the way I am. Newy was a beautiful place to grow up, but also a tough one, and we poured all of that into this record\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>It follows recent singles \u201cBeer Back Home\u201d, and \u201cTwo Broken Hearts\u201d featuring Laci Kaye Booth, who will join Evans on tour as his special guest.<\/p>\n<p>The US singer-songwriter has a gift for mining beauty from moments of deep sadness. Her 2024 album\u00a0<em>The Loneliest Girl In The World<\/em> unfolded in an earthy yet ethereal sound that Booth originally conceived as \u201cdreamy country\u201d \u2013 a fitting backdrop to her lived-in reflections on lost love and shattered hopes and the thrill of following your heart, even when it leads you astray.<\/p>\n<p><em>For complete tour and ticket information, see <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiertouring.com\/morganevans\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">MORGAN EVANS AUSTRALIA 2026<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Thursday, May 21st (18+)<\/strong><br \/>ICF Warehouse, Perth WA<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Saturday, May 23rd (18+)<\/strong><br \/>Forum Melbourne, Melbourne VIC<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Monday, May 25th (All Ages)<\/strong><br \/>Thebarton Theatre, Adelaide SA<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Wednesday, May 27th (All Ages)<\/strong><br \/>Enmore Theatre, Sydney NSW<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Saturday, May 30th (18+)<\/strong><br \/>The Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane QLD<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Tuesday, June 2nd (18+)\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>Powerstation, Auckland NZ<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Thursday, June 4th (All Ages)<\/strong><br \/>Christchurch Town Hall, Christchurch NZ<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,document,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');fbq('init','243859349395737');fbq('track','PageView');fbq.disablePushState=true;<\/script><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source au.rollingstone.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Country star Morgan Evans is returning home this year, bringing his \u2018Steel Town\u2019 tour to Australia and New Zealand.
