Australian singer-song writer and multi-instrumentalist, Xavier Rudd will release his ninth studio album Storm Boy on May 25, via Warner Music Australia on CD and Vinyl formats. The album features the previously released tracks ‘Walk Away’ & ‘Times Like These”. For Xavier Rudd, writing music and living his life are one and the same. “I’m literally just singing about the things that are going on around me,” he says of his sublime and soaring indie-folk. Environmental work, veganism, spiritualism, surfing, exploring new corners of his beloved homeland; everything Rudd does, he pours into song. The result is a personal sound that strikes a universal note. It’s been six years since Rudd’s last solo release, the ARIA #2 and Gold Certified Spirit Bird, and a lot of things have happened in that time. Storm Boy tracks the journey along the way
