The 4TH WALL tour kicks off next week!
ARIA-Award-winning and multi-platinum artist, Ruel is hitting the road on his fourth 4TH WALL tour, and he's bringing along Melbourne-based songwriter and musician Forest Claudette.
Last month, Claudette unveiled their new single Mess Around, teaming up with American hip hop duo EARTHGANG. Produced by Paul Meany (Yungblud, Twenty One Pilots, The Wombats, LANY), the seductive cut places Claudette's luring vocals above soulful sonics, led by a dynamic synth flute hook. Oozing with charm and charisma, the unity of Claudette and EARTHGANG's dynamic performances creates a match made in heaven as their distinct musical stylings compliment one another.
The musician will join Ruel on all dates across the tour, kicking off at Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane on April 14. The run of shows will continue on to Adelaide's Hindley Street Music Hall, Melbourne's MCA, Perth's Fremantle Arts Centre and Aware Super Theatre in Sydney. Ruel will then head to New Zealand for performances in Auckland and Wellington.
"SOOOO SO excited to tour AU/NZ again, playing at home is the best feeling ever, the crowds are always so energising and the vibe in the room is unmatched. It’s going to be so much fun to finally play the record live and share it with everyone in real time. These shows are always so special and I cannot WAIT to see everyone again." Ruel shares.
On his debut offering 4TH WALL, Ruel comes to the realisation that life isn’t all it appears to be. There’s a complexity to the human existence, one that is heightened during the transitionary period towards adulthood. And that, in all its essence, is what forms the conceptual basis of 4TH WALL. The realisation that we’re all flawed and just doing our best to keep afloat and stay true to ourselves. Read our full review here!
4TH WALL is out now.
