Simon Joyner (USA) with Leah Senior support.

Simon Joyner is widely regarded as one of the great singer-songwriters of our generation.

He will be touring Australia / New Zealand for the first time in Feb/Mar 2025, joined his backing band, The Eucalypts – featuring Leah Senior, Jesse Williams, and Michael Beach - all celebrated Australian songwriters and performers in their own right.

The tour coincides with the release of Joyner's newest album, Coyote Butterfly, out Nov 22nd, via Melbourne’s Homeless Records, as well as a reissue of his third album, 1994's The Cowardly Traveller Pays His Toll, in late November. The Cowardly Traveller was famously one of three records played in their entirety on John Peel’s legendary BBC1 show, alongside records by Bob Dylan and Siouxsie & the Banshees.

"… the reigning heir to Henry Miller's dark emotional mirror, Townes Van Zandt's three-chord moan, and Lou Reed's warehouse minimalism: his name is Simon Joyner." — Gillian Welch

"Joyner has been chipping away at the subtle absurdities of life since 1991, his rambling balladeering garnering comparisons to Leonard Cohen and Townes Van Zandt. He also shares a wry approach to self-reflection with modern practitioners like Mark Kozalek, Bill Callahan and David Berman." – MOJO
