Having just wowed a stadium of 100,000 and a televised national audience of millions at the AFL Grand Final over the weekend – including step up with Snoop Dogg, the cultural trailblazer and proud Yolŋu artist is on a hot streak. With singles ‘THICK SKIN’, ‘LIGHTNING ft REDD’, ‘PEACEKEEPER’ and ‘FREAK OUT ft Briggs & Haiku Hands’ positioning Baker Boy at the forefront of Australian music again, the tour is bound to be Baker Boys most thrilling live shows yet.

Following the acclaim of his 5 x ARIA Award-winning debut album Gela, including Album Of The Year,  DJANDJAY is Baker Boy’s most emotionally layered and creatively evolved work yet. Rooted in culture and shaped by personal growth, the new album is a powerful statement of resilience, identity, and transformation. Where Gela introduced the artist, DJANDJAY reveals Danzal the man: grounded, complex, and unafraid to speak his truth.

Named after his late grandmother, DJANDJAY also draws on the Yolŋu spiritual figure of the same name: a guiding octopus spirit that leads souls forward. That dual legacy flows through the record, which fuses ancestral influences with cutting-edge global production.
