CANADIAN FOLK DUO OCIE ELLIOTT ANNOUNCE 2026 AUSTRALIAN TOUR
Set to bring their compelling blend of folk songwriting and harmonic bliss to Australian venues in January/February 2026, is the talented Ocie Elliott – the project of Canadian musicians Jon Middleton and Sierra Lundy.
The JUNO Award-nominated act has become a prolific presence in their home region, with two acclaimed studio albums (2019’s We Fall In and 2020’s In That Room) cementing their status as one of British Columbia’s most captivating names. Most recently, Ocie Elliott’s tracks ‘These Days’ and ‘Adelina’ reinforced the duo’s chemistry as creative partners, following on from the 2023 EP We Know The Night.
Meeting by chance at a cafe, Middleton and Lundy quickly jumped on an early spark, spurring it into early collaborations and now, the unbreakable bond they share today. Their voices complement one another perfectly, while together their songs journey themes of love and connection.
As performers, Ocie Elliott has toured extensively throughout Canada and the United States, as well as Europe; their reach further being extended, with their song ‘Run To You’ being featured on an episode of Grey’s Anatomy. They have graced stages at festivals including the Newport Folk Festival, Bonnaroo, Calgary Folk Festival, Pickathon and the Telluride Bluesgrass Festival.
They have also logged impressive hours as headliners and support artists for talented peers including Joshua Radin and Gregory Alan Isakov; as well as Australian favourites Kim Churchill, Sons Of The East and Hollow Coves.
Of their upcoming Australian tour, Ocie Elliott say, “Australia, after nearly three years away, we finally get to return! We are more than excited to perform in your beautiful country again and enjoy your delicious coffee, beaches and açai bowls. And of course, to be back in the same space as all of you. See you in summer 2026.“
