RÜFÜS DU SOL Announce Biggest Australian Tour Yet

After dropping their anticipated third LP ‘Solace’ on Friday, one of the world’s pre-eminent electronic acts RÜFÜS DU SOL have announced their Solace Australian tour – their biggest Aussie tour yet.  The epic run of shows will kick off with a festival headline set at Sydney’s Field Day festival on January 1, 2019, before moving through Melbourne to play Sidney Myer Music Bowl, Adelaide’s Entertainment Centre, Perth’s Fremantle Arts Centre, Margaret River’s Three Oceans Winery and finishing up at Brisbane’s Riverstage on March 2.  Massive venues, massive tracks; it’s set to be the Aussie live music event of the new year.

 

‘Solace’ follows RÜFÜS DU SOL’s previous two platinum-certified albums ATLAS and Bloom, and is an album that is as sonically rich as it is emotionally intelligent.  The Australian three-piece, comprised of members Tyrone LindqvistJon George and James Hunt, have explored new territory on Solace; born out of a particularly poignant period for the band, it tackles heavier themes such as the pain of loss and the persistence of memory.  This is unequivocally the group’s most sophisticated work to date.
 

The Australian ‘Solace’ tour follows a rigorous two-year world tour which saw the band perform everywhere from legendary California festival Coachella, to Serbia’s EXIT.  This intensive period of touring helped pave the way for the Solace live show, crafted through years of varied live experience for the band.  Giving fans a rare insight into what to expect for the upcoming tour, Tyrone says, “This new show has allowed us to be able to take people on an inner journey and to get lost in the depths of Solace. It’s the most ambitious live experience we’ve put together yet.”
