'Schitt's Creek' Star Noah Reid Is Heading Down Under This Spring for His First Australian Concert Tour

When you've won over one of television's most cynical characters with a serenade, what comes next? Taking the tunes on the road. During his time on beloved and hilarious Emmy-winning sitcom Schitt's Creek, Noah Reid did far more than sing Tina Turner's 'The Best' to Dan Levy's David Rose, of course. When he joined the show from season three onwards as Patrick Brewer, he helped bring balance to the Rose family's fish-out-of-water antics, and became one half of its big love story. But the series kept finding ways to get Reid singing, including having Patrick star in the comedy's version of Cabaret — and now he'll be taking to the microphone Down Under.

Off-screen, Reid is indeed a musician, releasing his first album Songs From a Broken Chair back in 2016 before joining Schitt's Creek. Since then, he's dropped two follow-ups: 2020's Gemini and 2022's Adjustments. Next, he's bringing his live gigs to Australia for the first time ever.

Yes, 'The Best' usually features on his setlists overseas. Beyond that, the Canadian actor and musician will be playing tracks from across all three of his records when he heads Down Under this spring. Reid will kick off his tour in Sydney, before hitting Brisbane and Melbourne on the east coast, then venturing west for a show in Perth.

"Music has always been a space where I get to control my creative output in a way that I don't in my acting career. Acting is really creative and there's definitely artistry to it but I don't thank that just because you're an actor, you're automatically an artist. I've worked really hard for years to create these records," said Reid, announcing his Australian tour.

"People might know me more widely as an actor, but music is a space where I've loved working for years, and I'm really excited to finally be able to share my music with people in Australia. It feels like a long time coming!" Reid continued.

Since Schitt's Creek, Reid has popped up on sci-fi western Outer Range — and also has past appearances on Degrassi: The Next Generation, Alphas and House of Lies on his pre-Schitt's Creek resume.
