German producer BUNT. will bring his immersive In The Round show to Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne this October and November as the Clouds hitmaker enters a new global chapter.

German electronic producer BUNT. has confirmed his long awaited return to Australia, unveiling a three date east coast headline run that will see him stage his signature In The Round production in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne this October and November.
The tour opens on Friday 30 October at Hordern Pavilion in Sydney, before moving to The Tivoli in Brisbane on Thursday 5 November and concluding at PICA in Melbourne on Saturday 7 November.
For Australian audiences, it marks the first opportunity to experience the fully immersive format that has become central to BUNT.’s global ascent. Rather than positioning himself behind a traditional DJ booth, BUNT. performs surrounded by his audience, eliminating the physical and psychological divide between performer and crowd. The concept has proven commercially potent, with more than 200,000 tickets sold worldwide since his 2023 breakthrough, including a sold out stadium headline performance in Mexico City in 2025. He has now delivered more than 350 shows internationally in that period.
Born Levi Wijk in Stuttgart, Germany, BUNT. began his career as part of a duo formed with Nico Crispin while the pair were studying in 2014. The name translates from German as “colourful”, an apt descriptor for a sound that fuses electronic production with folk instrumentation and melodic songwriting. Early releases such as Old Guitar and Young Hearts established the project’s electronic folk identity, shaped by the influence of artists including Swedish House Mafia and the late Avicii.
Following Crispin’s departure in 2021, Wijk continued BUNT. as a solo project and signed with Arista Records. The pivotal moment arrived in 2023 with the release of Clouds featuring Nate Traveller. The track debuted at number 15 on the Billboard Hot Electronic Songs chart and has since generated more than 750 million streams globally. Its resonance extended beyond streaming metrics, positioning BUNT. as one of the most commercially viable new names in contemporary dance music.
The success of Clouds accelerated a period of intense activity. BUNT. has since collaborated with an eclectic list of artists including Taylor Swift, Tom Odell, Elley Duhé, Tiësto and The Temper Trap, broadening his reach across pop and electronic spheres. He was also named among Spotify’s 10 Dance Artists To Watch, further reinforcing his crossover appeal.
In 2024 he released Trippin with Mapei on the album Levi Don’t Do It, continuing a catalogue that balances festival scale production with emotive songwriting. His work has consistently drawn from deep house, folk house, techno and garage house traditions, while retaining an accessible melodic core.
Now in 2026, BUNT. is entering what many observers regard as a defining phase. Major festival appearances at Coachella and Lollapalooza have underscored his international standing, while the In The Round concept has reframed expectations of what an electronic performance can be outside the club environment. The staging places the artist physically at the centre of the audience, supported by immersive lighting and production designed to envelop rather than dominate.
For Australian fans, the forthcoming shows promise a combination of new material and established anthems that have fuelled his rise. With live electronic music continuing to evolve post pandemic, BUNT.’s approach reflects a broader shift towards experience driven performance, where spatial design and communal energy are as critical as the music itself.
Artist presale tickets will be available from 10:00am local time on Wednesday 4 March. A promoter presale follows at 12:00pm local time the same day. General public tickets go on sale from 10:00am local time on Friday 6 March.
