The exciting tour comes off the back of the announcement of Luke’s highly anticipated latest forthcoming solo EP boy set for release 26 April, and release of a brand new single ‘Shakes’ (LISTEN HERE). Beautiful and melancholic, ‘Shakes’ is a captivating preview of what fans can expect to come, and is the first new original music since Hemmings’ critically acclaimed debut project, When Facing the Things We Turn Away From, released in 2021. Luke says of the project’s first single, “’Shakes’ was written on a dreary NYC evening in between long periods of being on the road. This made it come naturally to write from a melancholy place and feeling of yearning to be back home and feeling lonely and emotionally depleted. There is a longing for love and self-acceptance in the lyrics and I hope it to be a song and feeling that anyone listening can find themselves in and attach their own story”.

Luke is adept at capturing feelings and distilling them into music. As the lead vocalist of 5 Seconds of Summer, Luke has sold millions of records, toured the globe numerous times, accumulated billions of streams, and become one of Australia’s most successful musical exports. boy, meanwhile, sees him flex his innate abilities as a songwriter to carve out a unique space as an artist in his own right. Inspired by musical influences like LCD Soundsystem and the Cocteau Twins, and produced with longtime collaborator Sammy Witte (Maggie Rogers, Harry Styles, Freya Ridings), boy promises a unique exploration of Hemmings’ deepest musical passions. boy will be released on 26 April 2024, and available to pre-order/save HERE.

About Luke Hemmings

As the lead vocalist of 5 Seconds of Summer, 27-year-old Luke Hemmings has sold millions of records, toured the globe numerous times, accumulated billions of streams, and become one of Australia’s most successful musical exports. As a solo artist, Luke has turned his creative process inward, finding a place for self-discovery, exploration, and experimentation. The first result of which was his critically acclaimed debut solo EP, When Facing The Things You Turn Away From, released in 2021 and lauded “equal parts mesmerizing and immersive” by Rolling Stone.

Recorded in New York with Grammy-nominated producer Sammy Witte (Maggie Rogers, Harry Styles, Freya Ridings), his next project, boy, is scheduled for release this April. The EP is a result of continued introspection into maturity and humanity paired with the influence of LCD Soundsystem, My Bloody Valentine, The Verve, and Cocteau Twins culminating in a body of work highlighting both Luke’s personal evolution and his craft as a songwriter. The first glimpse of that can be heard in the layers of loneliness explored on just-dropped single ‘Shakes’. 2024 is a year of growth for Luke with lots more to come soon.

About The Buoys

The Buoys blasted out of the local punk rock scene, and in just a few short years, released three EPs together, playing sold-out shows across the country that have earned them a devoted following and engrained this Sydney based all-female rock band into Australian music culture. From coming in at #85 on Triple J’s Hottest 100 of 2021 with ‘Lie To Me Again’, to touring with the likes of The Dandy Warhols, Arctic Monkeys, DMA’S and Ball Park Music, The Buoys themselves are devoted to playing high-octane shows, and as a result have cemented their place as an unmissable live show experience.

About Annie Hamilton

Through cascading, ethereal vocals and sprawling instrumentation, Australian artist Annie Hamilton boasts a unique ability to evoke memory and nostalgia within her music. Rejecting straight-forward narrative structure in favour of pinning down hyper-specific yet universally empathetic moments, her 2022 debut album, ‘the future is here but it feels kinda like the past’, is a stylised-yet-grainy collage of snapshots that span a mammoth range of emotion, sound and genre, but are tied together as documentation of little human moments, full of contradiction and duality, reality as metaphor and metaphor as reality. In her short solo career, she has already completed tours with Julia Jacklin, Lime Cordiale, Gordi and Jack River, attracting the praise of triple j, NPR, CLASH Magazine, The Fader and more.
