Winston Surfshirt have announced a run of shows for September and October 2025 to launch the project’s fourth studio album, the quasi-eponymous Winston. The follow-up to 2022’s Panna Cotta is set for release next month on Friday, July 26th via Sweat It Out. The full list of tour dates, as well as ticketing information and more details about Winston, can be found below.
The Sydney-based band had already been announced as part of the line-up for this year’s Brisbane Festival earlier in the month, with a performance booked in at the city’s Princess Theatre for September. Other acts performing at the esteemed Woollongabba venue as part of this year’s festivities include John Butler, Sarah Blasko, Wunderhorse, Odd Mob and Indo Warehouse.
Winston, meanwhile, was formally announced in late May. Five singles have already been lifted from the album ahead of its official release: ‘Boots’ in November 2024, ‘Ice Cream’ back in January, ‘Spend My Nights’ in March, ‘One Sugar’ in May (to coincide with the album’s announcement) and ‘Jeep’ last Friday (June 27th). The lattermost single can be streamed below.

The band’s most recent live performance came as part of this year’s Vivid, where they played a free show in Darling Harbour’s Tumbalong Park. They were joined by Jerome Blaze as their opening act. Prior to that, the band did a run of pop-up shows at beaches across New South Wales, where they performed live from the back of a boat. They had pulled this off previously in the early days of the band, performing on the water in Sydney Harbour promoting their 2017 debut album Sponge Cake.
