About this event

Tex Perkins and Matt Walker are back on the road to mark the release of their new album, Before The Show. Across September to November 2026, the pair are playing a run of special performances, with the Wollongong date landing at Centro CBD's Sorrento Room on 31 October.

The album and the tour both lean on a friendship that goes back decades, and the shows are built around that long working relationship rather than a big-production setup. Expect a stripped-back room and songs that sit comfortably in an intimate space.

It's a rare chance to catch Perkins in a small room, so grab tickets early if you're keen on the Illawarra leg.
