Australia and New Zealand will welcome two of the most distinctive voices in the Nordic music world when Eivør and Sylvaine join forces for an unforgettable tour across both countries in March 2026.
Following a triumphant, sold-out tour of Europe and a critically praised run across the United States earlier this year, Faroese singer, composer and sonic alchemist Eivør Pálsdóttir returns to this part of the world with her first-ever headline tour of Australia and New Zealand.
Audiences may remember her breathtaking performances as the opening act for Heilung’s debut tour in 2024—shows that left thousands spellbound and eager for more. Now, Eivør returns centre stage with a full-scale live production, bringing her signature blend of primal rhythms, folk mysticism, and cinematic grandeur.
Joining her is the ethereal force of Sylvaine (Kathrine Shepard), a Norwegian composer and multi-instrumentalist whose sound has been described as a bridge between the sacred and the storm. Her 2022 album Nova solidified her as a leading figure in the black-gaze and atmospheric Nordic music scenes.
From the windswept cliffs of Syðrugøta in the Faroe Islands to Netflix screens across the globe, Eivør’s voice has carried far. Her music features heavily in the soundtrack of the global hit series The Last Kingdom and has accumulated nearly 1 billion streams worldwide. With ten studio albums, collaborations with artists like Ásgeir, John Grant, Einar Selvik (Wardruna) and Dan Heath (Lana Del Rey), and the prestigious 2021 Nordic Council Music Prize under her belt, she continues to rise as one of the most powerful and emotive live performers of our time.
This tour is not just a concert—it’s a ritual, a homecoming, and a shared experience for lovers of Nordic sonic traditions. If you're a fan of Heilung, Wardruna, or the broader spectrum of spiritual, genre-defying folk, this will be your sanctuary.
Two artists. One unmissable experience.
A journey for those longing to reconnect with the ancient, the wild, and the deeply human.
Don’t miss the most transcendent tour of 2026.
