Alternative favourites CAKE make their long-awaited Australian return in 2027.
15 years on since their last visit, the groovy rockers have announced An Evening with CAKE, a two-set performance diving into the band’s extensive back catalogue.
Audience can expect to hear all of CAKE’s biggest tracks, including‘The Distance’, ‘Short Skirt/Long Jacket’, ‘Never There’, ‘Frank Sinatra’ and ‘I Will Survive’, along with deep cuts and fan favs.
“Although Australia is a distant continent for us, our memories of its wonderful audiences remain clear,” says trumpeter/keyboardist Vincent DiFiore. “We are delighted to have the opportunity to be part of that vibrant music scene once again.”
An Evening with CAKE commences in Perth at Ice Cream Factory on Sunday 14 March. The Cali ensemble then plays Adelaide’s Hindley Street Music Hall on Tuesday 16 March, Melbourne’s Festival Hall on Thursday 18 March and Sydney’s Enmore Theatre on Saturday 20 March, before bringing the tour to an end on Wednesday 24 March at Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane.

Formed more than three decades ago, CAKE emerged from the California alternative scene to become one of the biggest acts of the ‘90s courtesy of their sophomore album, Fashion Nugget.
Topping the US Heatseekers Albums Chart and peaking at #9 on the ARIA Albums Chart, the record spawned the huge hits ‘The Distance’ and ‘Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps’, along with the band’s iconic cover of Gloria Gaynor’s ‘I Will Survive’.
Although their last album was 2011’s Showroom of Compassion, which did debut at #1 on the Billboard 200, the band have been hard at work on their ninth studio album, Billionaire in Space, which will hopefully be out in the world by the time the band hits Australia.
Catch CAKE performing at Hindley Street Music Hall on Tuesday 16 March. Ticketing information is available at destroyalllines.com.
