Rüfüs Du Sol – Solace Australian Tour in Western Australia

Fresh from releasing their third LP 'Solace', one of the world's pre-eminent electronic acts Rüfüs Du Sol are now set for their biggest Aussie tour yet—the 'Solace Australian Tour'. They will be performing their latest club bangers in Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Metricup and Brisbane but before these dates, they will first be killing their set on New Year's Day for Field Day 2019.

'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. Tyrone Lindqvist, Jon 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 Aussie leg of the 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."

The brand new live show will push the band's on-stage abilities to new heights. With an emphasis on jamming and live improvisation, the trio will bring the magical spontaneity of their studio process to the stage in an unprecedented format. Bringing a host of new analog gear into the fold, as well as a revamped visual setup, the new live show will allow for each Rüfüs Du Sol performance to be sonically distinct. "Some of our favouite moments have been at these outdoor venues. These live experiences just bring everyone together—whether you’re losing your friends, or finding new ones, but being so content in dancing and connecting with the music and the band on stage. We really hope to bring those moments and create that emotional connection over the summer," says Jon of the upcoming shows.

On top of the album release, upcoming tour, and the band's recent relocation to Los Angeles, they have also officially launched their own record label, Rose Avenue. The name serves as a tribute to their Venice Beach home, and the friends they have shared it with. With a new album, new record label, and bold new live show, Rüfüs Du Sol have laid the groundwork for what will easily be their most groundbreaking year yet.
