One day ahead of Thom Yorke’s debut solo shows in Australia, additional tickets have been released for his shows in Melbourne.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday evening, Yorke’s official account revealed that final tickets for his Melbourne dates will go on sale from 9am on Monday, October 28th.
First announced back in June, Yorke’s upcoming series of shows will be his first-ever solo shows in Australia, and his first performances in the country since Radiohead’s last tour of the country in 2012.
Yorke’s Everything tour will find the singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist playing work from throughout his career.
Yorke described the shows as such: “In the autumn in New Zealand, Australia, Singapore and Japan I will be alone on stage trying a new kind of solo show thing playing versions of songs from my recent and not so recent past.”

Yorke’s everything tour began in New Zealand last week, with two shows at Melbourne’s Sidney Myer Music Bowl (Tuesday, October 29th, and Wednesday, October 30th), and the Sydney Opera House Forecourt (Friday, 1, and Saturday, 2 November) scheduled in Australia.
At the Christchurch launch of his tour, Yorke gave dedicated fans a lengthy set full of deep cuts from throughout his decades-long career, alongside plenty of familiar Radiohead, The Smile, and Atoms For Peace classics.
The set also featured the debut of a new song titled Back In The Game, an industrial banger that finds Yorke noodling away on a synth and drum machine in a manner redolent of both Radiohead and his later solo output.

Tuesday, 29 October - Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Melbourne
Wednesday, 30 October - Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Melbourne
