Last on our shores in 2023 with exclusive shows in Sydney and Melbourne as well as performing across Australia and New Zealand for the 2023 edition of Listen Out Festival, Peggy’s return in 2025 will be his most highly anticipated visit yet. Following incredible performances and stellar reviews from fans and critics, there is no doubt JPEGMAFIA is in high demand.
“Peggy is simply an incredible rapper – and arguably an even better producer… it’s here onstage that Peggy truly shines” – Purple Sneakers
“Peggy is a beast of a performer.” – AU Review ★★★★
“He'll do a lap of the stage without missing a single bar. He might even just sing 'Call Me Maybe' acapella and get the audience to singalong with him. Why not? It's his party, after all.” – Scenestr
A leader in the experimental rap scene, JPEGMAFIA has made an impressive mark on the genre with a creative flair that holds no boundaries. Peggy leaves no stone unturned in his live shows, bringing a chaotic energy that makes him truly one of a kind – a quality which has earned him global recognition and a loyal legion of fans around the world.
Since his last visit, JPEGMAFIA has been busy behind the scenes adding to his producer credits, producing six tracks on Kanye West’s highly-esteemed album, VULTURES 1. Riding on the success of his 2023 album, SCARING THE HOES which he performed for fans down under on his last visit, Peggy kicked off the year releasing new single ‘don’t rely on other men’ taken from his upcoming album due later this year. The release well and truly reignited the flame with fans speculating something big from Peggy and 2024 is proving to be just that, with the rapper returning to Australia and New Zealand as part of his headline world tour LAY DOWN MY LIFE – his biggest to date.
Don’t miss the epic return of JPEGMAFIA as his exceptional live presence lights up stages across Australia and New Zealand in February and March 2025.
