Without a doubt one of the global 'it' artists of 2019, Dean Lewis (who is currently headlining sold-out shows in North America) has revealed the release date for his debut album, 'A Place We Knew', as well as another run of Australian shows.
With his song ‘Be Alright’ voted #6 on triple j’s Hottest 100, Dean’s current single ‘7 Minutes’ is now certified gold in Australia having accumulated over 25 million streams in just over 4 weeks. 'A Place We Knew' will be released worldwide on 22 March.
The singer-songwriter will head to Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide and Melbourne in May with his band. With his previous local shows selling quick, the press release says it all: 'Fans should get in quick if his previous tours are anything to go by, with shows selling out in record times.' Drop mic Dean.
For Lewis, the title 'A Place We Knew' encapsulates the bittersweet memories of past relationships. "All the songs were written through relationships I’d been in and houses I used to live in and hotel rooms."
On a plane he heard a phrase that struck him like a bolt of lightning. "An in-flight-radio DJ said, ‘I wish that was a place we’d known about’; I went to my notes and wrote ‘A Place We Knew’ and was like, that’s the album title. That ties everything together."
