“One of the greatest songwriters of our time” – NPR

(MELBOURNE, AU) OCT 11, 2023: Today, multi-platinum, GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer DANIEL CAESAR announces the third leg of his ‘Superpowers World Tour’, expanding to Australia.

Tickets go on sale at 10am Friday 13 October at livenation.com.au and danielcaesar.com

My Live Nation members can access the exclusive presale beginning 10am Thursday 12 October

The first two legs of the sold-out North American tour offered a unique look at Daniel’s artistry and singular vision. For the first few songs of each show, he performs behind a sheer white curtain, adding a celestial quality to the performance. As a seasoned multi-instrumentalist, he takes full command of the stage, offering the tens of thousands of attendees piano ballads and guitar solos with a stripped-down quality, yet almost otherworldly precision. The set design displays raw camera footage of fans singing along and his band entering and exiting the stage at each show. During his sets of multi-million streamed songs, genuine fan engagement is at the forefront of the experience.

His ability to effortlessly switch between genres, from the sultry R&B of “Get You” to the gospel-infused “Blessed,” is remarkable and puts his versatility on full display. Each track is delivered with a level of authenticity, and the chemistry between Daniel Caesar and his three-piece band is undeniable.

The tour follows on the heels of his highest-charting album to date, NEVER ENOUGH, which debuted at #2 on Billboard Top R&B Albums Chart and Top 15 on Billboard 200 Chart upon release and maintained his status as one of Spotify’s top 200 streamed artists worldwide. Album highlights include “Always,” which continues to dominate Billboard Hot R&B and Adult R&B Airplay charts. NEVER ENOUGH is an examination of Daniel’s insatiable perfectionism and juxtaposes his self-scrutiny in relationships with his characteristically reassuring vocals. The project was recorded in part in Canada, New York, London, and Los Angeles, and the concept was largely conceived in France. He cites the hero’s journey in Paulo Coelho’s The Alchemist as a major influence. NEVER ENOUGH was produced in part by Raphael Saadiq and Daniel’s brother Zachary Simmonds.

About Daniel Caesar:

Multi-platinum GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Daniel Caesar is on a journey of self-actualization. He’s built his name across the gamut of contemporary R&B—contemplative soul and evocative rock to intergalactic alternative and understated pop—with artistry at his core. One of the most critically and commercially successful artists today—he’s one of the Top 10 most-streamed Canadian artists of all time on Spotify with over 20 million monthly listeners on the platform and 1.6 million subscribers on YouTube—he’s ready to elevate his artistry in 2023 and beyond. His 2017 debut, Freudian, was released independently and was a R&B breakthrough, bolstered by the 5x-platinum “Best Part” [feat. H.E.R.] and 3x-platinum “Get You” [feat. Kali Uchis]. Daniel received a GRAMMY® Award for “Best R&B Performance” for the former, and the b-side “Blessed” was featured on President Barack Obama’s annual favorites playlist. 2019’s follow up, CASE STUDY 01 [featuring John Mayer, Brandy, and Pharrell Williams], debuted at number 17 on the Billboard Top 200. His first number one hit on the Billboard Hot 100 came two years later with Justin Bieber’s megahit “Peaches” [featuring Giveon], amassing billions of streams. 2022’s “Please Do Not Lean” has garnered nearly 70 million global streams to date and received critical acclaim from across the globe, including a “Traditional R&B/Soul Recording of the Year” Juno Awards nomination. In 2023, he returned with a slew of singles, “Do You Like Me?,” “Let Me Go,” and “Valentina,” which set the tone for his critically acclaimed new album NEVER ENOUGH, out now. NEVER ENOUGH topped numerous "Best Albums of 2023" lists, including Billboard, Rolling Stone, Esquire, Complex, Hypebeast, Uproxx, and more. Daniel is currently on his Superpowers World Tour, which includes sold-out shows at legendary venues, such as Madison Square Garden, Hollywood Bowl, Scotiabank Arena, and more.
