Ryan Oakes Announces Long Awaited Australian Tour For June

After years of demand from fans, Ryan Oakes is finally bringing his live show to Australia.

The Virginia born, Los Angeles raised rapper, multi-instrumentalist, and songwriter Ryan Oakes has announced his first ever Australian tour this June, marking a major moment for an artist whose following here has quietly grown into something serious.

The tour is about more than just ticking off new territory for Oakes, it’s a chance to connect face to face with a fanbase that’s supported him from afar, while debuting a stacked catalogue of material live in Australia for the first time.

Known for his high energy performances and genre blurring approach, Oakes’ shows sit somewhere between hip-hop, alternative, and pop-punk, without ever feeling locked into one lane.

That refusal to be boxed in has paid off, Oakes has built his career on a fiercely independent, DIY ethos, amassing over 47 million streams and a loyal community that’s followed him through every stylistic shift. Collaborations with artists like MOD SUN, State Champs, and Hollywood Undead have further cemented his reputation as a versatile artist who thrives on creative cross-pollination.

Oakes released his latest studio album ‘OPUS‘ last year, a project that doubled down on ambition and range, the record moves freely between moods and influences, reinforcing the sense that Oakes is still pushing forward rather than settling into comfort.

It’s that restless energy that Australian audiences will finally get to experience up close.

Oakes made it clear just how much this run means to him (per press release):

“Australia has been some of my biggest supporters for years now and a tour has been long overdue. We are going to make sure this is a truly special experience for everybody by including free meet and greets at every single show. At the end of my set I’m going to head to the merch booth and shake as many hands and take as many pictures as I can. This is a one time thing to show the fans how much I truly appreciate them holding me down down undah for so many years. Can’t wait to finally meet everyone and give them a show that makes up for the ten year wait!”
