Ziggy Alberts to play NZ dates this December in celebration of new album, LAPS AROUND THE SUN
Ziggy Alberts is showing just how far you can push the boundaries as an independent artist. After selling out some of Australia’s biggest theatres and playing a sold-out run on his first North America tour to dropping two charting singles ‘Heaven’ and ‘Love Me Now’, this Aussie singer-songwriter has just announced his first WORLD TOUR.
In celebration of the new album, LAPS AROUND THE SUN (released November 9), Ziggy Alberts is embarking on his LAPS AROUND THE SUN World Tour. Kicking off his first shows this December, Ziggy will be headlining rooms of all shapes and sizes across Australia, New Zealand, UK, Europe, North America, South Africa and South America.
Ziggy plays Auckland’s The Tuning Fork on Thursday December 6 (second show) andFriday December 7 (sold out), Wellington’s Caroline on Saturday December 8 (sold out) and in Christchurchon Sunday December 9 at Blue Smoke (sold out).
No stranger to life on the road, the world tour celebrates the next chapter in Ziggy’s growing career and will take him to both foreign and familiar lands - with over 100
dates announced.
For first time Ziggy enthusiasts, we will give this away - Ziggy is an energetic performer with songs that carry powerful messages about his passion for the ocean and environment, love stories and memories of being on the road as a touring musician. Somehow Ziggy continues to truly connect with his audience, despite the growing room sizes at every show.
Expect your night to be a musical journey of dancing, sing-a-longs, and unplugged favourites, with Ziggy having the crowd bouncing one moment to silently swaying the next.
