Chet Faker Adds Fourth Melbourne, Second Sydney Show

Live Nation has unveiled the complete line-up for the 2025 On The Steps concert series, set to light up the Sydney Opera House Forecourt from 2-15 December.

Remember 2014? Flume was everywhere, people still used Facebook events, and Chet Faker’s Built on Glass was basically unavoidable. A decade later, the bearded crooner is dusting off the record that made him a household name and playing it front-to-back on the Sydney Opera House steps, December 2.

Nick Murphy, best known to the world as Chet Faker, has returned with a brand-new single, Inefficient Love, released today through BMG. The track follows Far Side of the Moon and sees one of Australia’s most distinctive songwriters once again baring his soul.

Two more shows have been added to the Live At The Gardens series of shows at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Melbourne. Chet Faker will perform his Built On Glass 10th anniversary show and Tash Sultana will perform two days later.

Harvest II has been announced for Adelaide with Jamiroquai (Australian exclusive), Beck (Australian exclusive), Paul Kelly, Nile Rodgers & Chic, Thelma Plum, Santigold, Sparks, Julia Jacklin, Bright Eyes, Flight Facilities (decade DJ set), Chet Faker, Chromeo, Ocean Alley, Vera Blue, Baker Boy, Ladyhawke, The Rolling Stones Revue (Ft. Adalita, Tex Perkins and Tim Rogers), The Lemon Twigs, Built to Spill, Bad//Dreems, Sam Barber and more to be announced.

Nick Murphy (the artist formerly known as Chet Faker) will release a new album ‘Run Fast Sleep Naked’ on April 26.

LCD Soundsystem has cancelled their Australian and New Zealand tour. The tour was due to start in Perth on 12 February.
