Chambers expressed her excitement for the upcoming tour, stating, “And now, my favourite part of my ‘life in music’ falls into place…THE LIVE TOUR. In 2025, we will be embarking on the BACKBONE TOUR for the first half of the year throughout Australia. Celebrating my new releases Backbone (the album) and Just Don’t Be A Dickhead (the book of profound lessons I’ve learnt through the years), my full band and I will be visiting songs throughout my career that shaped who I am.”
Backbone is Chambers’ thirteenth album and marks another chapter in her 25-year career, showcasing her storytelling prowess. The album follows the release of her book Just Don’t Be A Dickhead…and other profound things I’ve learnt, a collection of stories and lessons that have shaped the new album.
Presented by Premier Artists, Essence Music Group, ABC Country, and Double J, this tour is set to be a special opportunity for fans to experience Chambers’ new material alongside her classic hits and heartfelt stories. “I can’t wait to be sharing some new songs along with my old favourites, and the stories and secrets behind where they came from, like never before. For me, the BACKBONE TOUR already feels like the live soundtrack to my life,” she said.
