MANILA, Philippines — Jakarta-born, Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter and producer NIKI is bringing her "Buzz World Tour" to the Philippines in SM Mall of Asia Arena on February 11 and 12, 2025.

Following successful shows across in North America and Europe at legendary venues such as the Greek Theatre (Berkeley) and OVO Arena at Wembley (London) this year, NIKI will kick off her Asia tour in February 2025, marking her debut show in Hong Kong and returning with stops in cities such as Manila, Jakarta, Bangkok and Singapore, where she sold out shows in 2023. 

“My Asia and Australia fans have been patiently waiting, and I am excited to finally announce the 'Buzz World Tour' official dates and venues. I am so proud of this show and can’t wait to share it with everyone,” NIKI said. 

Mastercard cardholders have special access to presale tickets starting today, November 21, until November 23. Live Nation PH Members can secure tickets during the Live Nation Presale on Monday, November 25, from 10 a.m. until 11:59 p.m. (local time). Register for free at livenation.ph. General on sale will start on November 26, Tuesday at 12 p.m. (local time) via SM Tickets.

NIKI’s third studio album, "Buzz," released on August 9 via 88rising, captures the feeling of being on the precipice of discovery across 13 introspective tracks. It includes fan-favorites, such as the summer anthem “Tsunami,” the astrologically-inspired “Blue Moon,” the playful lead single “Too Much of a Good Thing,” the bittersweet title track “Buzz” and the emotionally raw “Did You Like Her In The Morning?”

In "Buzz," her songwriting remains as intimate as ever, inspired by lane-paving female artists like Joni Mitchell, Stevie Nicks, Carly Simon and Liz Phair, of whom influenced her confessional, honest lyrics and guitar-driven sound.

To capture the album’s exploratory spirit, she tapped producers Tyler Chester (Madison Cunningham, Sara Bareilles) and Ethan Gruska (Fiona Apple, Phoebe Bridgers) as collaborators, who helped bring a new depth to her creative and personal sea change.

For NIKI, things have been happening progressively since she was a high schooler in Jakarta, Indonesia, where she penned lovesick poems in English class and performed acoustic guitar covers of American pop songs on YouTube. With a six-string in hand, and her family and classmates cheering her on from the audience, Nicole Zefanya then staked her claim to global stardom as NIKI.

With over three billion streams worldwide, sold out shows on multiple continents, massive sets at festivals across the globe, front row seats at Paris Fashion Week, four songs on a Marvel film’s soundtrack, and some of the most phenomenal, confessional songs being released in 2024, NIKI has established an impressive career before turning 25.
