Bobby Alu is extending his sold out Australian tour by adding a visit to North Queensland! Get your tickets now! An Intimate Evening With Bobby Alu. “If there’s one thing that you should know about me, it’s that I like to cruise…” sings Australian/Samoan singer, ukulele strummer and drummer Bobby Alu in the opening line of his most requested song My Style. To celebrate ten years of the song first released on the Bay Sessions EP in 2015, Bobby is hitting the road around Australia, showcasing his inimitable style that rides the groove spectrum from Polynesian folk, through roots, reggae, soul to tropical pop. “I had no idea when I wrote My Style that it would be one of my most listened to songs!" says Bobby. "It’s always the most requested and the biggest sing-along moment at my shows. People ask me if I know why this is, and I think it’s because we all want to be comfortable in ourselves or to simply find ourselves. That is the spirit of My Style. It’s something I strive for, and I find it exciting to grow older and keep meeting the new me. Shedding old habits, finding new ones. It’s the quirks that I love in my friends and fam. Our essence is the very thing that our people love and miss about us. It’s what makes me, me and you, you. So here’s to moving through life on a quest to find - or to simply accept - who you are. And let’s celebrate that for an evening together.” With a reputation as a world-class performer, it’s common to see audience members at Bobby’s shows gesturing warmly to their hearts, feeling island style relaxed, or hugely energised by his mastery of Samoan log drums. The My Style tour promises to be an evening that’ll make young and old feel truly good in the heart. Limited tickets – don’t miss out. "Whether you’re on, near, or simply pining for a body of water and a calmer frame of mind, Bobby’s brand of coastal folk will take you there. It takes a lot of skill to make something this good sound so effortless." Dorothy Markek – Double J “His chilled out Pacific tunes have a long-lasting feel good effect and his finely crafted songs have instant appeal.” ABC Radio Australia “Smooth hammock music genius.” The AU Review | Ellis Beach Bar & Grill | https://events.humanitix.com/bobby-alu-my-style-tour-ellis?hxchl=hex-pfl&fbclid=IwY2xjawKQ23tleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFkVEhQS2xCWkoxRVBaUVVEAR4LfYErcm4LQ41m53bOsWwpL89UKucoPWWCWd1INg3MnTrQnS9zPJroEOgzVQ_aem_8-oTb8K8g-4Z1xlWQ16otA | 40553534 | Live Entertainment, Major Event | Jesse | [email protected] | 0458556237 | ||||
