Handsome Tours, Lunatic Entertainment, Select Music & triple j are proud to present the return of Baker Boy!
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 Yolŋu spirit guide she shares a name with, the album marks a turning point for BakerBoy as he steps further into his identity, his power, and his global vision.
Across these dates, BakerBoy 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 Yolŋu 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.
