Handsome Tours present Matt Berninger – the unmistakable frontman and lyricist of The National – who makes his Australian and New Zealand solo debut this May and June. The tour marks Berninger’s highly anticipated return to the region – this time as soloist, offering audiences an intimate yet expansive live show celebrating his latest album Get Sunk (Concord, 2025) – a sweeping and soul-stirring record that finds him resurfacing with clarity, vulnerability and wry humour intact.
Best known for the contemplative narratives and gorgeous emotional candour that have defined The National’s catalogue, Berninger has long explored the fragile edges of identity and self-understanding. Released as a solo album, Get Sunk emerges as both reckoning and renewal — an inhale after submersion.
Expect a setlist spanning Get Sunk alongside selections from his 2020 solo debut Serpentine Prison and carefully chosen moments from The National’s beloved catalogue.
