Multi-instrumentalist and global sensation TASH SULTANA will return to North America for a fall 2019 tour that includes stops at Red Rocks Amphitheatre (Colorado) and the Central Park Summerstage (New York), along with a slot on the Ohana Festival (Los Angeles). The newly announced tour dates mark the largest headlining gigs in TASH's career and come after a few spring shows in the U.S., followed by solo performances and festival appearances this summer in Europe.
Here's some critical feedback from the recent U.S. shows:
"The Australian artist--who has identified as non-binary and goes by the pronoun "they"--is exotic and androgynous, just like their music...[songs] showcased long, cascading guitar solos and Sultana's soulful voice. While it was just one person onstage during the entire set, it sounded like a full band, with Sultana playing multiple instruments for each song and looping in sounds they'd created."
-- MAGNET MAGAZINE (Shakey Knees Music Festival, Atlanta), 7/5/19
"...Sultana to jam away and transform each song into something entirely new. Sultana was patient, letting each song expand to its maximum tripadelic potential. Salvation let her squeal out tones like Clapton; the seductive Free Mind washed waves of loneliness through the amps; Jungle's wocka-wocka funk let her riff around like Prince or Sly Stone. She started each beat; she would stop it when she darn well pleased."
--Jay Cridlin,TAMPA BAY TIMES (Jannus Live), 5/8/19
Last year was one of the biggest years in TASH's career. Highlights include the release of her debut album FLOW STATE (Mom and Pop Music) which entered the charts at #4 on the Billboard Alternative Albums Chart and also charted across the globe. FLOW STATE was also nominated for the prestigious Triple J Australian Album of the Year award and six ARIA's (The Australian Recording Industry Association Music Awards). Other recent accolades include over half a billion streams worldwide; the certified platinum singles "Jungle" and "Notion"; the certified Gold (internationally) Notion (EP) and the singles "Mystik" and "Murder To The Mind"; and record-breaking attendance at live shows around the world.
For those who have not yet experienced TASH live, TASH recently revealed "The Story So Far," a three-part documentary series in partnership with YouTube Music that shows the journey from bedroom performances and busking to sold-out world tours. Check out the first two episodes now on TASH's channel here and here, with the third to follow this summer.
