Kyle Lionhart returns with his most honest chapter yet.
Following a career built from busking the streets and beaches of Byron Bay to sold-out headline tours across Australia and Europe, Kyle Lionhart returns with his brand-new single I’m Doing Fine (out September 17th) and a national headline tour to match.
With more than 150 million streams worldwide, over 15,000 independent physical sales, sold-out tours, and performances alongside Xavier Rudd, Niall Horan and Foy Vance, as well as appearances at Splendour In The Grass and Bluesfest, Lionhart has carved out a reputation as one of Australia’s most compelling live singer-songwriters.
‘Drawing from folk, soul, americana and indie rock, Kyle’s music has long been compared to artists such as Ben Harper, Matt Corby and Jeff Buckley — combining earthy acoustic songwriting with soaring vocals, groove and an unmistakably Australian sense of place.
But it’s on stage where Kyle really comes alive.
His shows are intimate one moment and completely explosive the next — weaving storytelling, humour, raw emotion and huge singalongs into a performance that feels less like watching a concert and more like being part of something.
From a Byron Bay busker drawing crowds in the hundreds to an international touring artist, ‘I’m Doing Fine’ marks the next chapter in the Kyle Lionhart story.
Come along, sing loud, laugh a little, feel a lot — and maybe convince yourself that, yeah… you’re doing fine.
