Over the last five months Missy Higgins has crisscrossed Australia, attracting unanimous rave reviews for The Second Act Tour. This uniquely evocative live show celebrates the 20th anniversary of The Sound Of White with Missy performing the landmark album in its entirety after a stripped-back opening set featuring songs from her forthcoming album, The Second Act.

With the new album releasing on September 6, Missy announces a Sydney encore show with special guest Elana Stone on the Sydney Opera House Forecourt against one of Australia’s most iconic backdrops.

Missy Higgins is one of Australia’s most beloved singer/songwriters. She’s struck a deep and enduring chord with her irresistible melodies and ‘arrow through the heart’ lyrics, delivered by a striking voice that clearly means it.

Since being Unearthed by Triple J back in 2002 when she was still at high school Missy has blazed a trail for female singer/songwriters. She has received 26 ARIA Award nominations and earned five #1’s in her homeland while also enjoying a gold certification in the USA. 2024 is shaping up as a huge year for Missy with her upcoming induction into the ARIA Hall of Fame.
