DON WEST adds second Sydney show due to phenomenal demand

First show sold out, plus tour support acts announced 

MELBOURNE, AU (August 20, 2025) – Soul sensation DON WEST today announces a second Sydney show for his upcoming Australian tour due to massive demand, plus support acts across the wider tour. 

The second Sydney show will take place Thursday 18 December at Liberty Hall and is added after a quick sell-out of his first date in the city. 

Surely Shirley will open for DON WEST for both Sydney shows, as well as in Melbourne and Brisbane. The twin-sister duo’s music mixes tropical doo-wop with 60’s ballads to create a sound that is characterised by enchanting harmonies, feel-good rhythms, and a touch of nostalgia. KESMAR will perform a DJ set for the Torquay Hotel show.

Tickets to the new Sydney show go on sale this Friday, 22 August, 10:00am local time.

Known for his distinct, genre-blending sound, DON WEST fuses classic soul with modern R&B influences. His rich vocals, heartfelt songwriting and electrifying live performances have created a phenomenon across Australia and the world, with this Australian tour coming hot off the back of already announced shows in the UK, Europe and the USA. 

Cementing himself as a must-see touring artist with growing critical recognition and a loyal fanbase, DON WEST continues to establish himself as one of the most compelling new voices in contemporary soul.
