    Frontier Touring is thrilled to announce US singer-songwriter Michael Marcagi will make his debut in Australia and New Zealand with a series of headline shows this July.

    The ‘Scared To Start’ hitmaker will kick off his antipodean visit with a show at Auckland’s Powerstation on Saturday 13 July, before taking in Australia’s East Coast with stops in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.

    Frontier Members can access presale tickets on Monday 15 April from 11am local time before general tickets go on sale Tuesday 16 April from 12pm local time. Tickets and tour information via frontiertouring.com/michaelmarcagi.

    A homegrown success story with a career built largely through grassroots social media support, Michael Marcagi earned his legion of fans with a folk-rock and age-old American sound listeners yearned for. Destined to be a performer, Marcagi grew up playing in rock bands in his hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio, before he began creating and posting solo endeavours on TikTok, his videos drawing in fans from across the world.

    Viral track ‘Scared To Start’ pushed his TikTok view counts into the millions, and catapulted Marcagi into the spotlight at the start of 2024. Reaching the Top 10 in the UK and US as well as Top 20 in Australia and New Zealand, the song’s instant popularity cemented Michael’s status as a folk prodigy, securing a record deal with only two songs to his name.

    Releasing his highly-anticipated debut EP American Romance earlier this year, the project exudes timeless sounds and songwriting that proved Marcagi’s talent for authentic storytelling. Working with producer David Baron (Lana Del Rey, The Lumineers, Shania Twain), the two were able to create a debut album that excelled, with Ones To Watch naming it “the calling card of one of 2024's most exciting new artists”.

    Now, with global streams of more than 100 million and close to 20 million monthly listeners on Spotify, Marcagi will hit the road for the first time this year as a signed artist, poised to continue his incredible trajectory. Touring internationally later this month, he will play headline shows across the UK and Europe, with a number of shows already sold out. Returning home to the US for a string of sold out headline shows in May before heading to Australia and New Zealand for the first time, don’t miss Michael Marcagi playing intimate venues on his debut down under this July.
