Brad Cox (AUS) I Really Love NZ Tour Announced

Modern day phenomenon of Australian country-rock, Brad Cox has unabashedly declared his love for Aotearoa New Zealand with the announcement of his triple date I Really Love NZ Tour, barrelling back from across the Tasman in June. Last here on tour in late '23, Cox's hit album Acres achieved a clean sweep at the 2024 Country Music Awards of Australia (aka the Golden Guitar Awards), taking away Male Artist of the Year, Contemporary Country Album of the Year and Top Selling Australian Country Album of the Year.

Brad Cox's big-hearted vocal powers have since been showcased on 2024's Hot Lettuce Sessions - Live In Hobart long player, and rip-roaring recent anthems 'I'm a Boxer' (sounding reminiscent of Alex Cameron as he belts out "I'm boxing in the ring of love") and 'Everything I've Got'. Currently hunkering down in the studio polishing off album number four after touring EU and the UK, don't miss the truck-driving superstar — he literally drives his own branded truck on tour — making a triumphant return to Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington this winter...

"NZ is rad! Traveled there numerous times for work but mainly for pleasure because I just absolutely love the country. My favourite part about NZ is definitely the people, full of proper good humans, and the stunning scenery. See you mob in a few months. I’m pumped."

UPDATE: Brad Cox's I really Love NZ Tour is now happening this spring, with bonus headline dates announced + no more Wellington show...
