Chicago singer-songwriter Gia Margaret is heading to Australia for the first time, bringing her distinctive blend of ambient music, delicate piano and intimate songwriting to six venues in March 2027.

The tour follows the release of her latest album, Singing, which marks a significant turning point for an artist who spent years unable to use her voice following a vocal injury.

Forced to abandon singing, Margaret turned to instrumental composition, producing two acclaimed albums, Mia Gargaret(2020) and Romantic Piano (2023). The latter introduced her music to a wider audience when the track ‘Hinoki Wood’ took off on TikTok.

Now, with her voice recovered, Margaret has returned to songwriting on Singing, her first vocal album since 2018’s There’s Always Glimmer. Recorded across London, Eau Claire and Chicago with producer Guy Sigsworth, whose credits include Björk, Madonna and Seal, the 12-track record moves between understated pop melodies and the atmospheric arrangements that have become her trademark.

Singles ‘Everyone Around Me Dancing’, ‘Good Friend’ and ‘Moon Not Mine’ offer a glimpse of an artist reconnecting with her voice while retaining the experimental instincts developed during her years making instrumental music.

Australian audiences will get their first chance to experience Margaret’s work live when the tour opens in Mapleton on March 11, before heading to Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne and Anglesea.
