Australian folk-pop duo - CHARM OF FINCHES - have announced an extensive UK tour for 2026.

Sisters Mabel and Ivy Windred-Wornes are currently mapping out what will be their fifth studio album and will return to the UK for a stretch of intimate shows and scenic songwriting sessions.

Kicking-off at London's The Grace on 18th February and concluding at Glasgow's Glad Cafe on 4th March, the run will see them play at towns and cities everywhere in between on this fourteen-date tour.

Of the upcoming visit, Charm of Finches explain:

"Since our last UK tour in 2024, we've toured all around Australia, and it's given us a chance to be inspired by new parts of the country we've never been to like northern Queensland, where the oldest tropical rainforest meets the Great Barrier Reef. Then over to New Zealand, hiking up volcanoes. Immersing ourselves in nature is integral to our artistic practice, and we're excited to share new songs and stories infused with the wonder of these landscapes. On our last UK tour, we connected with so many people and we can't wait to visit again - singing in old churches, stuffing ourselves with English breakfast and patting highland cows. Then we'll be writing songs by the windswept coasts and rugged mountains of Scotland, creating our fifth record."

Ahead of their fifth studio album, standby for the release of a brand new single "Meteor" on 14th November. Inspired by the powerful forces of nature that reflect a tumultuous inner world, the track was recorded by the ocean in Victoria, Australia, and mixed in Canada. Blazing a trail of future music to come, "Meteor" is the first of a series of planned releases due to impact in the coming months. Charm of Finches invite you to help them create their fifth album in Scotland via the Australian Cultural Fund.

Australian sister duo Charm of Finches create intricate folk-pop that is simultaneously graceful and darkly bewitching. Their seamless blood harmonies traverse melancholy and wonder in equal measure. Winners of the Australian Folk Music Awards Best Folk Album (2022) and Music Victoria Best Folk Act (2021), the band have also been nominated twice for the Australian Music Prize.

With four acclaimed studio albums released to date, their most recent was 2024's ‘Marlinchen In The Snow'. Recorded in rural Nova Scotia with acclaimed Canadian producer Daniel Ledwell (Jenn Grant, Good Lovelies), it was inspired by the frozen beauty of the landscape, Grimm Fairy Tales from their childhood, and their transient life on the road with their music.

Touring extensively throughout the UK, Europe, and Canada in 2022, 2023 and 2024, Charm of Finches will return to the UK in February and March 2026. Catch them at these dates as follows:
