Jack Gray Announced As Support For Maren Morris’ 2026 New Zealand Tour

TĀMAKI MAKAURAU, Tuesday 16 September 2025 – TEG Live has today announced acclaimed Australian singer-songwriter Jack Gray will join Grammy Award-winning artist Maren Morris as the special guest on her highly anticipated 2026 New Zealand Tour.

Originally from Mackay, Queensland, Jack Gray is a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose music blends cinematic storytelling with heartfelt lyricism, capturing the emotion and energy of life’s turning points. Now based in Los Angeles, the 25-year-old artist has amassed more than 30 million global streams and built a strong following with his atmospheric soundscapes and intimate, honest songwriting.

Gray has toured extensively across Australia, New Zealand, the U.S., and Canada, sharing stages with artists including Tate McRae, Mahalia, Matt Corby, Maisie Peters, and Ella Vos. Most recently, he joined Daniel Seavey on the Second Wind Tour, performing to a packed audience in New Zealand. In July 2025, Gray signed with Island Records Australia and released his debut single under the label, “Dumb Sh*t”—a nostalgic ode to reckless youth that serves as the first glimpse of his forthcoming 2026 debut album.

Jack Gray says:
“I’m beyond excited to join Maren on her New Zealand tour. She’s an artist I deeply admire for her honesty and fearless songwriting. Getting to share these shows at home with Kiwi audiences feels really special—it’s the perfect way to kick off a huge year of new music for me.”

Fans can expect an intimate yet high-energy performance from Gray as he takes the stage ahead of Maren Morris, setting the scene for one of the most exciting tours of the year.
