Two years after Del Water Gap wowed Aussie audiences with an unforgettable set at Splendour in the Grass, along with two intimate performances in Melbourne and Sydney, the Brooklyn-based creative returns Down Under this September for a run of headline shows.
The alias of singer, songwriter and producer Samuel Holden Jaffe, Del Water Gap is an indie pop-leaning project that’s spawned two albums – Del Water Gap (2021) and I Miss You Already + I Haven't Left Yet (2023).
Performing at Lollapalooza in Chicago and Leeds and Reading Festivals in the UK throughout August, Del Water Gap touches down in Australia in September for three shows at Melbourne’s Max Watt’s on Sunday 21 September, Adelaide’s Lion Arts Factory on Tuesday 23 September and Sydney’s Liberty Hall on Tuesday 30 September.

S. Holden Jaffe has been making music under the Del Water Gap name for more than a decade. The project has undergone several iterations, with an early version of the band including indie star Maggie Rogers, before Jaffe made it a solo project.
Del Water Gap blew up in 2020 with the viral single ‘Ode to a Conversation Stuck in Your Throat’, which is certified Gold by the RIAA.
Since then, Del Water Gap has released two albums, supported the likes of Halsey, girl in red, Arlo Parks and Maggie Rogers, and played some of the biggest festivals in the world.
Aussie fans are in for a treat when Del Water Gap hits our shores this September for what promises to be a magical run of gigs.
