Following a mammoth year which saw the band become the most-nominated act at the 2020 ARIA Awards, claim an epic five tracks in the top 26 of this year’s triple j Hottest 100 and more…!
Chugg Entertainment and Frontier Touring are thrilled to announce Lime Cordiale will play their biggest ever Australian headline dates this October. Kicking off at Brisbane’s Riverstage on Saturday 9 October, the band will take in back-to-back nights at Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion on Friday 15 and Saturday 16 October,Melbourne’s iconic Sidney Myer Music Bowl on Friday 22 October, before heading West to Fremantle Arts Centre on Friday 29 and Saturday 30 October.
Hailing from Sydney’s Northern Beaches, Lime Cordiale – comprising brothers Louis and Oli Leimbach – have had an explosive twelve months. The band’s sophomore album 14 Steps To A Better Youtopped the ARIA Album Chart on release in July last year, with the biggest first week sales for an Australian artist album between January-November 2020. Embraced by tastemakers around the world, the album garnered global acclaim, taking out the coveted J Award for Best Australian Album.
“… freewheeling experiments with beating heart” – NME (4 stars)
In a watershed moment last year, Lime Cordiale chalked up an incredible eight ARIA Award nominations, making them the most-nominated act of 2020 and landing them their debut ARIA Award for Best Breakthrough Artist. Soon afterward, in January’s triple j Hottest 100 countdown, the band scored an unprecedented five tracks in the top 26, their highest-ranking song ‘On Our Own’ claiming 11th position.
The band’s live performance is the stuff of legend. Their shows have been touted as “raucous” by The AU Review, and “triumphant… a therapeutic musical extravaganza guaranteed to cure those post lockdown hangovers” by Beat. Always high octane, front man Louis is the ultimate showman, as the brother’s distinctive vocal and on-stage charisma sets the perfect party vibe.
Last month, on the final night of their sold-out East Coast tour, Lime Cordiale sent fans into a meltdown as they welcomed Idris Elba on stage at Sydney’s iconic Enmore Theatre. The British actor, writer, producer, rapper and singer-songwriter joined them for a surprise appearance on Unnecessary Things.
In 2020, Lime Cordiale’s hit singles ‘Robbery’ and ‘Temper Temper’ gained Platinum accreditation, and over the past eighteen months the band have accrued an additional 7 x Gold singles. With 1.5 million monthly listeners and upwards of 217 million streams on Spotify, close to 20 million Apple Music streams and YouTube views exceeding 13 million, the band is on a fast rise. They’ve supported Tones & I across North America, and in 2019 played to over 30,000 fans around Australia alone.
Needless to say, the brothers Leimbach are here to stay, and this is one live show you don’t want to miss. Gather your mates and jump on tickets on 30 April… you know it’s gonna be a good time.
