xaviersobased is heading to Australia for the first time, with the New York rapper-producer announcing a three-date run this June as part of his Riverside Tour.
The dates kick off at The Princess Theatre in Brisbane on June 3, followed by Melbourne’s Northcote Theatre on June 4, before wrapping at Sydney’s Metro Theatre on June 7 as part of Vivid LIVE. Tickets went on sale April 24.
The shows mark a milestone moment for the rapper, who has built a fast-growing audience online before translating that momentum into touring. Over the past few years, xaviersobased has emerged as part of a new wave of internet-led rap acts, with his music gaining traction across platforms like SoundCloud and TikTok.
That momentum accelerated with the release of his debut album Xavier earlier this year. The project earned Best New Music from Pitchfork, which described it as “a cult rap record with big ambition,” pointing to the artist’s evolving sound and approach.
Before that release, he had already built a steady catalog through a run of mixtapes, including Keep It Goin Xav and with 2, helping establish his presence within underground rap circles. His work blends elements of trap, rage and experimental hip-hop, often shifting styles from track to track.
Touring has also played a role in that rise. In 2025, xaviersobased completed a national run and appeared alongside artists including Yung Lean and Bladee, expanding his reach beyond the U.S. market.
The upcoming Australian dates will feature support from ksuuvi and Backend and arrive as part of the wider Riverside Tour 2.0. His inclusion on the Vivid LIVE lineup also places him alongside a broader mix of international and local acts appearing across the Sydney program.
