The tour follows the announcement of DJANDJAY , Baker Boy ’s fearless and emotionally expansive second album, out October 10 via Island Records Australia . If Gela introduced a bright new voice in Australian music, DJANDJAY signals a creative leap - thematically deeper, sonically broader, and unflinchingly personal. Named in honour of both his late grandmother and the Yol?u spirit guide she shares a name with, the album marks a turning point for Baker Boy as he steps further into his identity, his power, and his global vision. Across these dates, Baker Boy will showcase material from DJANDJAY , a record shaped by spiritual legacy and personal transformation. Blending ancestral influences with sharp-edged global production, the album folds in Yol?u Matha, English, and Burarra across a dynamic soundscape that spans hip-hop, punk, gospel, and electronic textures. Singles like ‘ PEACEKEEPER ’, ‘ FREAK OUT ’ (feat. Briggs and Haiku Hands) , and ‘ THICK SKIN ’ (feat. Thelma Plum, Emma Donovan, Kee’ahn & Jada Weazel) speak directly to the album’s core: resilience, reclamation, and refusing to be boxed in. With stops in Mulubinba/Newcastle , Warrane/Sydney , Meanjin/Brisbane , Cullunghutti/Coolangatta , Koornoo/Barwon Heads , Naarm/Melbourne , Gulumoerrgin/Darwin , and Mparntwe/Alice Springs , the DJANDJAY tour promises the full scale of Baker Boy ’s vision, featuring a brand new show, created especially for this tour. It’s a fresh production designed to give fans something they haven’t experienced from a Baker Boy show before. He’ll also appear at Perth Festival and WOMADelaide 2026 , with more to be announced. Where Gela introduced the artist, DJANDJAY reveals the man: more grounded, more defiant, and more ready than ever. DJANDJAY by Baker Boy is out Oct 10 PRE-SAVE/PRE-ORDER HERE
