Tim Rogers has officially announced his 2026 solo tour, titled Le Charme Defensif. The run has been set to take place across March and April next year. The tour will feature multiple intimate venues across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, and the ACT.Tickets are already available through Tim Rogers' official website. Notably, the tour announcement comes after Tim Rogers' recent recognition by the ARIA Hall of Fame and the Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Fame.Tim Rogers delivered an emotional speech following the ARIA Hall Of Fame induction:"Showbiz! Oh, the music industry, you do keep company with some nefarious people. We don't understand the industry, but it is lovely, and we are very grateful to be asked to sit at the parents' table. Your canopies are delicious, and your wine looks delicious. It is wonderful to see lots of old friends here today. 94% of them are working behind the scenes on the crew, and once again, we reiterate that they are not called Roadies. They are called prospective consensual, romantic partners."He continued:"Thirty-six years ago, I was extremely sick and had no prospect to do anything, and my brother and my best friend asked me to join their band, and it gave me a life. At the start of this year, I was sick again in hospital. My mate Andy Kent called me and said, ‘Let's get the band back together.’ Well, we've never broken up, but let's go out on tour, and not for the 100th time, it gave me the opportunity to have a life. F**k, I love rock and roll."The part about it I love the most is that writing gives me a purpose to live, to express to people how I feel about them through writing rather than other more courageous ways. My three best friends, for taking these abstract, miserable songs that I write and turning them into something that's enjoyable for the public."There have been a lot of very, very big festivals, big shows, some overseas bands touring and getting your photo taken amongst 80,000 people is very exciting. I understand that the spectacle of that, but there are so many great venues, Link & Pin in Woy Woy, Trash Cult in Eaglehawk, Bendigo, that put on shows whenever they can, whenever they can afford it."Tim Rogers concluded his statement, saying:"And by buying a ticket, going to those shows and taking a punt on something, something you've never heard of, you may have been a crowd of 12 people, but by doing that, you are part of this great art experiment. You are not necessarily a fan, but you are a fan, which I think is the most noble thing of all, to be passionate about, something I know because we're just fans who dress considerably better."Plus, I would really love to thank our first manager, the first person who believed in us, Kate Stewart, Todd Wagstaff, to my dear darling Big Brother, Jaimme, thank you for asking me to join your band. To Mark Tunaley, who played on our first recordings, to my beautiful Alice, who I absolutely adore, and to my wonderful, wonderful, extraordinary daughter, Ruby. Thank you so much for travelling so far, and hopefully, we'll see you all out there on the road of endless possibilities."

Once again, what you may consider pretentious, we just call aspirational. There shall be laughter, but no tears, as in these my autumnal gears. I just can't afford to lose the moisture."Complete list of dates and stops for Tim Rogers' 2026 runFriday, March 20, 2026, Brunswick, VIC, at The Brunswick Ballroom (Milly Strange)Wednesday, March 25, 2026, Old Bar, NSW, at Flow and Boogie WoogieThursday, March 26, 2026, Eltham, VIC, at Eltham Hotel (Dana Gehrman)Friday, March 27, 2026, Eumundi, QLD, at Imperial Hotel (Dana Gehrman)Saturday, March 28, 2026, Brisbane, QLD, at Old Museum (Dana Gehrman)Friday, April 10, 2026, Canberra, ACT, at Smiths AlternativeSaturday, April 11, 2026, Gundaroo, NSW, at Tallagandra Hill WineryThursday, April 16, 2026, Newcastle, NSW, at Flamingo's LiveFriday, April 17, 2026, Marrickville, NSW, at Camelot LoungeSaturday, April 18, 2026, Marrickville, NSW, at Camelot LoungeSunday, April 19, 2026, Milton, NSW, at Milton TheatreTickets are currently available through Tim Rogers' official website.Also Read: Pierce Brothers 2026 Australian tour: Presale code, dates, venues, and more explored
