A truly seasoned artist with global recognition, Bridges has sold-out shows in the US, Canada, UK, Europe, Australia, Japan, Mexico and more, including sets at legendary music venues the Hollywood Bowl, Radio City Music Hall and O2 Brixton Academy. From unforgettable TV appearances (inc. Saturday Night Live, The Graham Norton Show) to intimate gigs for the likes of Barack Obama at the White House, Leon has continued to push the boundaries of his career.
Leon is nominated for two Grammys for Best Traditional R&B Performance and Best R&B Album for his newest full length release Gold-Diggers Sound. Debuting at #17 in the US, it contains singles ‘Sweeter’, ‘Motorbike’, and ‘Why Don’t You Touch Me’. It was “one of the albums of the year” claimed Clash Music, and labelled “seriously impressive” by The Guardian.
Gold-Diggers Sound follows Bridges’ hugely acclaimed 2015 debut Coming Home (certified ARIA Gold in Australia), and his seriously impressive sophomore release, 2018’s Good Thing, which won a Grammy for ‘Best Traditional R&B Performance’ and featured singles such as ‘Beyond’. He’s also a seasoned collaborator, releasing music with artists such as Khruangbin (watch the video for the just-released ‘Chocolate Hills’), The Avalanches, Noah Cyrus, John Mayer, Lucky Daye, Kacey Musgraves, Jazmine Sullivan, and Diplo.
Joining the tour as special guest in Perth, Melbourne, and Brisbane is seasoned producer, performer, and songwriter Milan Ring, who scored a triple j Feature Album with her debut record I’m Feeling Hopeful.
Leon Bridges is dominating the R&B scene with his careful songwriting and charismatic energy. Encapsulated to perfection with The Boundless Tour, don’t miss the return of our favourite Texas Son.
