RVG have also announced a new show in Castlemaine, following on from their Melbourne show announcement last week. They’ll be performing at the Theatre Royal on December 9, marking their first ever headline show in the city. Tickets are on sale now through Oztix.
NME gave ‘Feral’ four stars upon its release in April 2020, writing that the album “depicts RVG as the heartbreaking, soul-embracing force for good that they’ve threatened to be from the very start”.
This year, the band teamed up with Julia Jacklin for a cover of Björk’s ‘Army of Me’, recorded for the RISING Singles Club. They also made an appearance at the Brunswick Music Festival in March, and were meant to perform at Sydney’s VIVID Live before the festival was cancelled due to the pandemic.
