Their return follows three sold-out, highly-praised tours in New Zealand and Australia, and a successful debut UK tour, with this tour set to see Daily J jump into new territory on the Australian front. Fans can expect high-energy performances as they slide into Scatterbrains.

“We’re fizzing, absolutely fizzing to play our most upbeat and energetic album yet! We can’t wait to kick things off in Australia, especially in places we haven’t made it to yet. Fans in Newcastle, Torquay, Adelaide, and Perth you’ve been calling, and we’ve been listening! Then we’re back to NZ for what will be our biggest venues and shows to date. Can’t wait to share some new sun-drenched songs with you all!”

Set for release in February 2025, Scatterbrains has already teased a taste of what’s to come, with several hit singles: the infectious ‘Sunday Stitches’, the introspective ‘Tastes Like Forever’, and the nostalgic anthem ‘Happy Slides’, all available for streaming now. On the album the band’s signature sound expands with new sonic textures, capturing a more complex and emotionally layered vibe, while maintaining the sun-soaked, infectious energy that fans know and love. The tour setlist is set to be littered with new tracks and favourites from 2020’s Venus Ate Mars, including ‘Left Me Like Summer’ and ‘Skylah’.
