Fatboy Slim is f***ing in heaven. And next year he’ll be playing coast-to-coast dates in Australia.
Norman Cook’s dancefloor alter ego will visit these parts in March 2027 for seven tour dates across Fremantle, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne.
On this trip, which includes a three-night stand at Carriageworks in Sydney, the Brit will play “more personal,” underground and urban outdoor spaces, he explains.
“For this tour to Australia I wanted to get up close with my people, play venues with real atmosphere and have a proper party,” he says in a statement. “Bridges, rivers, parks, old railway sheds – if it’s a bit weird and the sound system’s loud enough, I’m there.”
Fans can expect to hear the DJ and producer’s hits such as “Right Here Right Now,” “Praise You” and “Weapon of Choice,” along with recent releases “Satisfaction Skank,” a mash-up of his own “The Rockafeller Skank” and The Rolling Stones’ “Satisfaction,” and his current single with Brazilian DJ Carola and Felix Da Housecat, “Funk Drunk.”
Fatboy Slim has had a large year, one that has included spots at Coachella, four nights at his local, Brighton Beach, and a closing slot at Rock in Rio in Brazil, and his debut album Better Living Through Chemistry is celebrating its 30th birthday. To mark the occasion, the collection will be reissued digitally on Sept. 25 via BMG, with special-edition LP and CD editions following on Oct. 2. Its followup, 1998’s You’ve Come A Long Way Baby dropped, spent four weeks at No. 1 in the United Kingdom, and cemented his reputation as one of the best in the electronic music business.
