It's official: FKJ is making his long-awaited return to Singapore since his last show here in 2023, set to take over Arena @ Expo on November 29, 2026. And this time, he’s bringing his new album Tyber with him. 

The acclaimed French multi-instrumentalist, producer and singer has announced an extensive headline tour across Asia, and Singapore is one of seven stops on the run. The tour also includes Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Seoul, Taipei, and Tokyo.

The tour revolves around his upcoming studio album Tyber, his first full-length album since Vincent. Expect groove-heavy compositions that sit comfortably alongside jazz-led instrumentals, sample-rich explorations, R&B and psychedelic textures, effortlessly tied together with an impressive list of collaborators, including Lucy Park, Baby Rose and Labrinth. It's classic FKJ, who has a penchant for borrowing from gazz, soul, funk, hip-hop, electronic, classical, and rock without ever sounding stitched together.

If you didn't already know, FKJ doesn't simply perform his songs – he builds them live, right before the audience's eyes. No two sets are ever exactly the same, which means Singapore's show will also be guaranteed to be a one-off. And it's precisely this ability to reinvent his music live that has earned him a reputation far beyond the studio. Often credited as one of the pioneers of the New French House movement, he's built a career around live instrumentation, looping, improvisation and richly layered production. 

Artist Presale runs on July 6 from 10am to 11.59pm, followed by the Mastercard and Trip.com presales from July 7 at 2pm until July 8 at 2pm. Live Nation members can access another exclusive presale on July 8 from 4pm to 11.59pm, before general ticket sales officially begin on July 9 at 4pm via Ticketmaster.
