Bachelor Girl - Waiting for the Day: REDUX Tour w/guest Kate DeAraugo
Bachelor Girl return with Waiting for the Day: REDUX Tour 2026 — a bold reimagining of the album that launched them into Australian music history.
While the tour celebrates their ARIA Award-winning breakthrough album with timeless hits like ‘Buses and Trains’, ‘Treat Me Good’, ‘Permission to Shine’ and ‘Lucky Me’, REDUX 2026 introduces fresh interpretations shaped by years of life, growth and musical exploration.
Tania Doko and James Roche (Bachelor Girl) have revisited the record with new arrangements, cinematic textures and electronic flourishes that transform familiar songs and reveal emotional depths previously unheard. Stripped-back moments sit alongside soaring reimaginings, giving classic tracks a contemporary, adventurous artistic edge.
Behind the music, beyond the hits… Tania and James share stories never previously heard from their upcoming release Waiting for the Day: Artist Sessions, where some of Australia’s finest contributed and became part of the journey.
A celebration of legacy and reinvention — a show for longtime fans and first-time listeners alike, showcasing Bachelor Girl as you’ve never heard them before: seasoned, fearless and full of fresh REDUX fire.
Special Guest: Kate DeAraugo.
