KT Tunstall 'Eye To The Telescope' 2026 Australian tour: Presale, dates, venues, and more explored

Scottish singer-songwriter KT Tunstall is officially set to celebrate the 20th anniversary of her debut album Eye to the Telescope. She has announced a 2026 tour that will span Australia and New Zealand. The run will mark two decades since the record's release. It will see Tunstall perform the album in its entirety.

For fans in Australia and New Zealand, these shows will mark KT Tunstall’s first full-band return following a series of supporting performances with Train earlier in 2025. Eye to the Telescope was released in December 2004. The record became one of the most notable records of the 2000s. The album produced hits such as Black Horse and the Cherry Tree, Other Side of the World, and Suddenly I See.

The album reportedly sold over four million copies worldwide and became five times platinum in the UK. KT Tunstall recently took to her official Instagram page to pen a note on her album, Eye To The Telescope. The post read:

"I thought it’d be fun to rewind back to 2005 and take a look at every single cover from the original Eye To The Telescope era. I still love all of these... Black Horse and the Cherry Tree looks cool but I can’t remember whose idea it was to not put me on the cover?!"

She also added:

"The irony was after that first album I was always wanting to put artwork in the front of things but then they DID want my face 😂 My favourite is Under the Weather, my stylist Lucy managed to get me into a dress - albeit a Wednesday Adamms number!! Who has still got their CD singles 💿 (You can always ask your parents if you don’t know what they are haha!)"
