Double Grammy-nominated Australian trio Rüfüs Du Sol have announced 'Live From Joshua Tree'—a live album and film featuring an immersive desert performance of songs curated from their critically acclaimed studio albums 'Solace', 'Bloom' and 'Atlas', recorded and shot in the sprawling desert plains of Joshua Tree, California. Both live releases set to drop globally on March 6.
Rüfüs Du Sol have also announced two exclusive Australian premiere screenings of the film at Ritz Cinemas Randwick in Sydney and IMAX in Melbourne on March 4, and as an added bonus, their 'Live From Joshua Tree' film will be followed by a screening of the critically acclaimed Chemical Brothers film 'Don't Think', with all proceeds raised going to The Red Cross to be put towards Australian bushfire aid.
Speaking about the screenings, keys player Jon George says, "Given everything that's happened at home this summer with the fires, we wanted to do more to raise money to support those affected. We wanted to make the Australian premier of our film as special as we can from the other side of the world, and thought the most epic thing we could do would be to join forces for a double-header screening with one of the acts that has influenced us most. We are lifelong fans of the Chemical Brothers and are thrilled to have them and their team jump on board and donate the profits from the screening of their film to the Red Cross Bushfire appeal alongside us. Huge respect to Tom, Ed, and their director Adam Smith for supporting this. Our hearts go out to all those who have been affected by the fires this summer."
In a 45-minute immersive film traversing the depths of the band's famed shows and critically acclaimed studio albums, 'Rüfüs Du Sol: Live From Joshua Tree' brings the band's emotive live experience from the global stage to the screen. Featuring never-before-heard material set amongst the allure of the Great American West, the sensory film is an homage to the band's arrival as a global creative force.
'The Rüfüs Du Sol: Live From Joshua Tree' album is set for release on March 6 via Warner Music, and the 'Live From Joshua Tree' film will be released on YouTube on the same day.
