The New Zealand tour announcement comes just days after the world-wide release of Johnson’s eighth studio album and his first full-length record in five years. The album was produced by Blake Mills (Alabama Shakes, Perfume Genius, Jim James) and recorded both in Los Angeles, at Sound City and EastWest, and in Hawaii at Johnson’s studio The Mango Tree. Featuring the first single ‘One Step Ahead’, the second single ‘Don’t Look Now’, the album’s centerpiece and title track ‘Meet The Moonlight’, this latest album marks a major artistic milestone for Johnson, whose decades-spanning career has included countless sold-out tours, over 25 million albums sold worldwide and multiple industry awards, including three Brit Awards and two Grammy nominations. Jack Johnson’s new album ‘Meet The Moonlight’ is available here through Brushfire Records/Republic Records.
Once again hitting the stage with his long-time bandmates, Merlo, Adam and Zach, fans can expect to hear plenty of classic Jack including ‘Better Together’, ‘Flake’, ‘Inaudible Melodies’, ‘Taylor’, ‘Sitting, Waiting, Wishing’ and and some soon to be favourites from the new album.
Greening and the environment remain at the forefront of Johnson’s touring with extensive sustainability programs at every show. The Jack Johnson ‘Meet The Moonlight’ Tour will expand green touring practices and continue
to promote sustainable local food systems and plastic free initiatives. Johnson’s tour staff is working closely with promoters and venues in support of the BYOBottle campaign to create innovative plastic free campaigns which eliminate disposable plastic, provide water refill stations, and promote reusables. A ‘Farm to Stage’ program encourages venues to source local, organic food to support farmers in their region. The tour will promote sustainable transportation options and partner with local bicycle organisations to host bike valet programs at select shows.

Johnson’s All At Once campaign will engage fans in the Village Green at each show and will support non-profit partners including Green Music Australia, Perth City Farm, Tangaroa Blue and more.
