Macklemore to tour Australia & NZ
/Four-time Grammy-Award winner Macklemore has announced he will return to Australia & New Zealand for a headline tour this summer.
American rapper Macklemore - having just delivered his brand new solo album Gemini – will return to New Zealand in February for shows at Auckland’s Spark Arena and Wellington’s TSB Arena.
Gemini is Macklemore’s first solo album since 2005, following on from the worldwide success for Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’ albums The Heist (2012) – home to singles ‘Can’t Hold Us’, ‘Thrift Shop’ and ‘Same Love’ - and This Unruly Mess I’ve Made (2016) featuring the double platinum–certified smash hit, ‘Downtown’.
Gemini, which entered the RIANZ Album Chart this week at #4, features singles ‘Glorious’ and ‘Good Old Days’.
Currently climbing the Billboard 100 and having reached the coveted #1 slot on the RIANZ Singles Chart, ‘Glorious’ featuring Skylar Grey, is Macklemore’s first top five single as a solo artist. The video for ‘Glorious’ which stars Macklemore’s 100-year-old grandmother has had more than 33 million views.
