Australian roots sonic shaman, Xavier Rudd is bringing his most intricate solo show home for series of family-friendly spring events.
Currently in the middle of a massive North American tour ahead of a huge European run in the northern summer, the 'Follow The Sun' and 'Spirt Bird' songwriter will headline concerts in Newcastle, Wollongong, Sydney, Brisbane, Gold Coast and Adelaide as well as new Melbourne series Live At The Gardens (Xavier will be joined for a special performance from ARIA-nominated Emily Wurramara) and Queenscliff Music Festival this October-November."Aussie spring, just the vibes we love. Shows for all the ages, connectedness imperative, good times all round. This will be special," Xavier says.
"I'm super excited to bring this show to Australia after all this international touring. It's my first chance to share this show on home soil after buzzing around America and Europe, so it should be pretty slick by then. Let's do this!"
Main support act for the tour will be Northern Rivers band Calypso Cora, who are fronted by Xavier's son Finojet Rudd.
The four piece supported Xavier when he played Fremantle Prison recently, and we were there to capture the moment: 'Calypso Cora's irresistible sound captivated the spirit of good vibes, marrying sun-kissed strums with surf, indie-pop melodies.'
So join Xavier for an unforgettable night filled with timeless classics and the exciting new sounds of his latest EP, 'Freedom Sessions'.
Tickets on sale from 11am (local time) on 14 June; Night At The Barracks and Queenscliff Music Festival tickets are on sale.
