Happy to say I’ll be heading off on another tour this October. This one is scaled back from last year’s National Tour by focussing more on my local region.
If you’re seeing a pattern emerging with the artwork you’re spot on, and I thought I might explain it a bit more in-depth. This tour will finish off the Placid In The Rough series of projects (album, National Tour, and Regional Tour). Back in 2020 I released my debut single ‘Making Lemonade’. This was the beginning of a 10-year plan consisting of 4 albums, 4 national tours, and 4 regional tours. A new album every 2 years, and an alternating national/regional tour every October until 2029. Think of it as a 4 album anthology that are all linked. How are they linked?
Each album consists of 8 tracks, represented on the album cover by 8 Australian native flora species. Each national tour poster features these 8 species (one for each state and territory on the tour) plus 2 more to represent the Wagga Wagga and Albury hometown shows. Each regional tour has a different venue theme (the first being wineries) and the posters continue this flora theme too. And yes, that does mean there is a new album coming next year!
I hope this gives a little insight into the overall plan and hope to see you at a winery show. Thanks so much for your support.
PS, if you’re like me and love a completed collection, you can grab a CD, vinyl, or badge set from my Bandcamp page so that once this anthology is completed you can say you have the complete set.
