Beck | Live With Orchestra Australia 2026

Frontier Touring are delighted to announce 2022 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nominee and eight-time Grammy-winner Beck will perform two intimate and unique acoustic shows in Melbourne and Sydney in April 2023.

Delving deep into his acoustic roots these special performances will highlight the pure songcraft of Beck's standards and rarities his unparalleled versatility on show at his first Australia headline shows in five years.

Having dazzled crowds at landmark venues from London's Royal Albert Hall to New York's Carnegie Hall to the Hollywood Bowl, Beck has confirmed that Australian audiences will soon have their first chance to experience the magic of his live orchestral performances.

This May, Beck will be accompanied by native orchestras for a very special limited run of five shows - three at the Sydney Opera House and two at the Palais Theatre in Melbourne - reimagining a body of work including hits and deep cuts from classic Beck works including the multi-platinum Odelay, world-tripping Mutations, somber and reflective Sea Change, and GRAMMY Album of the Year winner Morning Phase, plus a share of surprises.

Praise for Beck's previous orchestral dates has been uniformly effusive, including:

'Other cities and other coasts deserve a piece of this big a musical win, too.. deeply gorgeous stuff' - VARIETY

'The orchestral arrangements were the real star of the night, a signpost of [Beck's] maturity as an artist.. This was Beck's Golden Age, and he succeeded in putting his all into a performance worthy of a brick in the 57th St. subway' - Rolling Stone

Performing with Beck at the Palais Theatre will be Philharmonia Australia (Orchestra Director Leah Zweck), with Orchestra Supervisor Chong Lim AM.

Philharmonia Australia is one of the country's leading session orchestras and has been the orchestra of choice for numerous national tours with Josh Groban, John Farnham & Olivia Newton-John, Hans Zimmer, Michael Bolton, Harry Connick Jnr and Ministry Of Sound.
