23 NOVEMBER 2022 (Australia) – Ziggy Alberts is due to hit UK & Ireland shores next April 2023 and today announces more sell-out shows and venue upgrades for his in-high-demand 2023 REWIND tour.
Selling out his Falmouth, Exeter, Brighton and Bristol shows, Alberts has now upgraded to The Academy, Manchester, 3Olympia Theatre, Dublin, Old Fruitmarket, Glasgow and The Limelight in Belfast. This tour is selling fast!
The UK & Ireland dates of the REWIND tour are complimented with Nathan Ball as a support act. A singer-songwriter with beautiful music and stage presence in his own right, and whose performances have been a part of Ziggy's shows in the past, having supported Ziggy's Laps Around The Sun World Tour in 2018/19. The 2023 UK & Ireland shows will be the first time Ziggy Alberts and Nathan Ball will have been together since.
The tour will showcase a collection of all Alberts' fan favourites and be a celebration of his latest studio 2022 album, DANCING IN THE DARK.
Musically, Ziggy’s sound has raised comparisons to the likes of early Ben Howard or Jack Johnson. His sound is laid back, soulful and folk-tinged, and his songwriting is honest and personal. Whilst Ziggy Alberts is similar to his contemporaries in writing about his personal experiences, his music is layered with subtextual references to issues close to his heart, such as the natural world, the human experience and the wider planet.
Founder of his independent label, Commonfolk Records, and book publishing house, Commonfolk Publishing, Ziggy Alberts has managed to craft what many musicians and authors dream of - the ability to tell a story on their own terms. In 2022, Ziggy was awarded an APRA for his track letting go. He has also earned ARIA Platinum certifications for Laps Around The Sun (Double Platinum), Gone, Runaway, Heaven, Love Me Now, Stronger and Four Feet in the Forest (EP), plus Gold certifications for his Laps Around The Sun album and six tracks in his catalogue.
