QPAC

Frontier Touring and Chugg Entertainment are thrilled to announce the highly anticipated return of multi-platinum, multi-BRIT, and GRAMMY-nominated British singer-songwriter David Gray, who brings his Past & Present World Tour to QPAC this November.

Gray’s return follows the January 2025 release of his latest critically acclaimed and 13th studio album, Dear Life. Independently released through his own label, Laugh A Minute Records, in partnership with Secretly Distribution, Dear Life reunites Gray with producer Ben de Vries on what may be the deepest, loveliest album this pioneering British singer-songwriter has ever delivered. While the album’s foundations were first laid in 2019, production was delayed due to COVID and the rescheduling of Gray’s massive White Ladder Anniversary Tour, which saw him perform to sold-out arenas across Australia in 2022.

Fans can expect an unforgettable live experience, as Gray brings his newest album to the stage for the very first time while also diving deep into his rich catalogue – a magical, two hour live show filled with beloved classics such as “My Oh My”, “Babylon”, “Please Forgive Me”, “Sail Away” and many more.

Gray is a multi-million selling arena artist who made one of the bestselling British albums of the 21st century, the blockbuster White Ladder, which pushed his intense and passionate blend of acoustics and electronica into the pop spotlight. Whilst huge stars from Adele to Hozier to Ed Sheeran have acknowledged Gray’s profound impact and influence, Gray himself has continued to plough his own furrow, relentlessly seeking out a purity of expression. Dear Life is a big statement, the work of a driven man obsessively focused on a personal artistic journey.

Don’t miss the chance to see the legendary David Gray, live on stage this November!
