Style on The Rocks! Cody Simpson dresses down as he dines out in Sydney... hours after returning to Australia for exclusive live shows

He’s back on home soil for performances across New South Wales and Queensland, but professional concerns took a back seat as Cody Simpson stepped out for dinner on Sunday evening.

The 18-year-old singer dined out at popular Sydney restaurant SAKE, where he was seen flashing a a trademark peace sign – hours after returning to Australia from Los Angeles.

Sporting a denim jacket and jeans, Cody was a typically casual sight as he made his way inside The Rocks based eatery with a group of pals.

The singer rounded off his look with a pair of slip on Vans trainers, while his tousled blonde hair was wept to the side. 

The musician is back in Australia to perform a string of shows for his dedicated fans in Sydney and the Gold Coast.

Sponsored by Twitter and ANZ, the intimate concerts will be money-can't-buy experiences, with dedicated fans having been given the last month to attempt to win tickets through a competition conducted through Cody's own Twitter timeline.

Last month he shared the cover art for his first album Free produced with Coasthouse Records, his own independent label launched after her parted ways with Atlantic Records.

Free was released digitally on July 10, with its tracks seemingly reflective of Cody's transition into a more mature music artist.

Following his recent split with model Gigi Hadid, the Australian singer has been spotted partying it up with his mates, and leaving night clubs with a string of mystery girls. 

And in his latest music, he explains how his youth and limited life experience has shaped some of the decisions he has made of late.

While promoting his new album on Instagram he recently wrote: 'I'm only 18 and still an idiot going through all the natural phases', before adding, 'but to be able to turn the way I feel into sound is cool'.

Encouraging fans to download his new string of songs online, he explained the motive behind the album. 

He wrote: '"free" captures a moment in my life filled with positivity and stoke and relief I can get a fresh start as a musician. no more corporate or record label influence and the compromise of artistry for short term commercial success (sic)'.

He also added: 'now that these tunes are out there they are no longer mine, because I'm constantly changing and growing. they are only yours now to apply to your own lives. have a BBQ to em, go cruise in the car with your friends to em'.
