Today, Live Nation announces the return of Grammy Award-winning Canadian alt-jazz trio BADBADNOTGOOD to Australian and New Zealand shores in March 2026.

Fresh from their acclaimed 2024 triple-suite Mid Spiral and high-profile collaborations with artists like Daniel Ceaser, Westside Gunn, and Norah Jones, the hype surrounding the group requires no explanation. With consistently sold out tours and a reputation that speaks for itself, these shows are not to be missed.
