You better get ready to hear a lot more from Sydney indie charmers Royel Otis in 2024.
After recently being nominated for Breakthrough Artist Of The Year at 2023 ARIA Awards, the duo of childhood mates Otis Pavlovic and Royel Maddell are prepping the release of their debut album, scheduled for early next year."We'll be hitting the road on our biggest tour ever next February in celebration of our debut album 'PRATTS & PAIN', out on Feb 16, 2024. Hope you're keen, we know we are."
The run of February-March dates will commence in Sydney, before they venture to Torquay, Melbourne, Canberra, Wollongong, Adelaide, Fremantle, Coffs Harbour, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast and Newcastle.
2023 has seen the group release the EP 'Sofa Kings' (featuring the title track as well as 'Kool Aid' and 'Going Kokomo'), building on the momentum generated from their 2022 breakthrough single 'Oysters In My Pocket'.
To tease 'PRATTS & PAIN', Royel Otis have shared the album's third single 'Heading For The Door'. "Some of us understand that peace is precious but when the chaos starts to overcome just sit and accept it. Stop heading for the door. Out now everywhere."
Tickets on sale from 12pm (local time) on 13 December.
