Paper Kites Tickets

Presented by: Taronga Zoo

The Paper Kites bring their distinctive indie-folk-rock to Twilight at Taronga — lush harmonies, melancholic melodies, and introspective storytelling that has earned them over two billion streams and eight million monthly Spotify listeners.

The Melbourne quintet's quiet rise to global success began with their multi-platinum single "Bloom" and has continued through six studio albums that showcase their restless creative evolution.

From the atmospheric indie-folk of ‘States’ to the pop-infused ‘Twelvefour’ and the collaborative ‘Roses’ (2021) — featuring Julia Stone, Lucy Rose, and Aoife O'Donovan — The Paper Kites have consistently pushed beyond folk's traditional boundaries.

In 2023, The Paper Kites released their sixth and most poignant studio album, ‘At The Roadhouse’, born from a transformative month-long residency at an abandoned heritage venue they discovered and repurposed in the small Australian mining town of Campbells Creek. Writing, recording, and performing weekend shows that allowed the songs to evolve organically, the band created an album deeply connected to community, featuring smoky vocals and a magnetic groove that conjures the spirit of old-time country and blues.

The band took ‘At The Roadhouse’ on tour in North America, blowing fans away…

“… this tour exemplifies what The Paper Kites do best - presenting music in its purest and rawest form, in a way that facilitates a sense of rustic community, each audience member having their soul be soothed and warmed by the fire of the band’s blazing chemistry.” – The Luna Collective

“… this was one of those performances that created a sense of euphoria – a giddy and heady joy at seeing such skilful musicians deliver the highest grade of entertainment with such an infectious sense of joy” – Backseat Mafia

Their latest single, “When The Lavender Blooms,” offers the first glimpse of a new chapter. Mixed by multi–Grammy winner Jon Low (Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, The National, Gracie Abrams) and recorded at Melbourne’s iconic Sing Sing studios, the track’s video was filmed in the band’s rehearsal space in the Yarra Valley—the very room where the song first took shape. It’s another tender entry in a catalogue that keeps finding its way into our lives, exactly when we need it most.

Come and enjoy a rare chance to warm your soul by the musical fires of The Paper Kites against the iconic backdrop of Sydney Harbour - secure your tickets now for an evening of pure musical magic.
