Some people say luck is the intersection of hard work and opportunity. On their fourth studio album Take Good Care (Loma Vista Recordings), the New Orleans chart-topping rock band deliver a bevy of anthems marked by moments of sonic complexity, celebration, and catharsis, chronicling an unbelievable ride that unassumingly commenced in 2008 with hundreds of underground shows yearly. Ten years of tireless hard work would be unexpectedly revved up by the success of the platinum-selling number one smash “Wish I Knew You,” and like any enduring band worth its salt, the octet buckled down and turned up with an album chock full of tunes worthy of even greater success, such as the #1 Triple A and Top 5 Alternative single "All My Friends" and new #1 Triple A and Top 15 Alternative hit single “Change.” The Revivalists – David Shaw [lead vocals, guitar], Zack Feinberg [guitar], Andrew Campanelli [drums], George Gekas [bass], Ed Williams [pedal steel guitar], Rob Ingraham [saxophone], Michael Girardot [keyboard, trumpet], and PJ Howard [drums, percussion]— have garnered more than 300 million total streams, have drawn praise from the likes of Rolling Stone, Billboard, Buzzfeed, Entertainment Weekly, USA Today, Salon, HuffPost, Grammy.com, Alternative Press, Uproxx, Flaunt, Nylon, and more, and have performed on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, Ellen, TODAY and Conan, with an upcoming appearance on Austin City Limits. They were nominated for a Billboard Music Award and two iHeartRadio Music Awards, were named Billboard’s Top New Rock Artist of 2017 and have three years of back-to-back sold out headline tours in their biggest venues to date. In the end, The Revivalists welcome listeners on this journey with them as they set out with a newfound depth and ambition. “We’re in this together,” says Shaw. “We love to take people on an emotional rollercoaster with us. That’s what this record is. It’s who we are. There’s some real magic in that.”

Ziggy Alberts has built a dedicated global following through a powerful combination of captivating songwriting, persistent touring, and a fiercely independent ethos. His journey from busking on the streets of Byron Bay to commanding sold-out world stages as a solo artist stands as a testament to authentic connection and musical craftsmanship.

With over 1 billion streams across his discography, Alberts has firmly established himself as a folk powerhouse. Hits like "Runaway" - surpassing 100 million Spotify streams and achieving ARIA Triple Platinum status, Gold Status in Canada - and "Love Me Now" have resonated with audiences worldwide. His impressive collection of accolades includes ARIA Triple Platinum for "Laps Around The Sun," Double Platinum for fan favourites "Days In The Sun," "Gone," and the EP "Four Feet In The Forest," plus multiple Gold certifications and three APRA Music Awards for Most Performed Blues and Roots Work.

What truly sets Alberts apart is his unwavering commitment to independence. Rather than signing with a major label, he established his own music company, Commonfolk, allowing him complete creative control and the freedom to forge his own path in the industry. This pioneering approach has made him an inspiration for artists seeking alternatives to traditional music business models.

Alberts' touring resume demonstrates his work ethic and global appeal. His performances across Australia, Europe, the UK, North America, South America and South East Asia have transformed from intimate venues to major headline sets, including standout appearances at Bluesfest, Bonnaroo, Fuji Rock and Splendour in the Grass. His recent tours have seen him play to over 110,000 fans at headline shows, sell out London's Royal Albert Hall six months in advance, pack houses in Germany with crowds of 3,500+, and make impressive international debuts in Brazil and Mexico.

His seventh studio album, 'New Love', represents his most refined project yet. Divided between a warm, folk-inspired Side A and a more expansive rock-and-country-influenced Side B, the album mirrors life's inherent duality. Co-produced with longtime collaborator Garrett Kato, the album embraces an organic, minimalist approach that preserves the raw emotion of each track. Singles like "New Love," "Outlaw," and the introspective "Where Does The Love Go?" offer glimpses into Alberts' musical and personal evolution while maintaining the acoustic charm and emotional resonance that first captured his audience's hearts.

Ziggy Alberts offers a rich tapestry of sun-soaked folk that explores themes of love, self-discovery, and the pursuit of freedom and joy. His commitment to direct connection with his audience has built not just a fan base but a community united across continents by his music and message.
