Hot on the heels of his headline-grabbing performance at the NRL Grand Final in Australia, Macklemore has announced two upcoming shows in New Zealand.
The 'Thrift Store' hitmaker will perform in Auckland and Wellington on February 9 and 10, respectively.
- Tony Abbott tries to stop Macklemore performing 'Same Love'
- Macklemore finally confirms baby's birth with new song
Macklemore performed his gay rights anthem 'Same Love' at the Storm vs Cowboys match over the weekend in the midst of Australia's same-sex marriage referendum.
Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott publicly stated the rapper shouldn't be allowed to sing the song at the event, claiming "footy fans shouldn't be subjected to a politicised grand final".
'Same Love' was number one on the New Zealand singles chart for three weeks in 2013.
Macklemore has a number of accolades under his belt, including four Grammys, three MTV VMAs and two American Music Awards.
Tickets to his New Zealand shows go on sale October 10.
