Sydney, Australia – After capturing the nation’s heart as the 2024 Voice Australia champion, soulful singer-songwriter Reuben De Melo has released his debut single “Slow”. The track marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the West Australian artist—his first release following The Voice, and the lead offering from his forthcoming debut EP.
Rooted in Reuben’s signature blend of emotive storytelling, textured vocals, and atmospheric production, “Slow” is a reminder to pause and connect—to feel deeply, move gently, and honour the people we hold closest.
“As a FIFO worker and a dad, I know how fast life can move,” says Reuben. “Slow is about being present—for your kids, your partner, your heart. It’s a love letter to slowing down and holding on to what really matters.”
Described by TheMusic.com.au as “the kind of story that inspires,” Reuben’s journey from FIFO worker to national spotlight has resonated deeply with audiences across the country. With authenticity and soul at the core of his artistry, he continues to prove that big dreams and a grounded life can co-exist.
“Slow” will be the first of several tracks to feature on Reuben’s upcoming EP, which he’ll perform live on his first major Australian tour this July–August 2025.
On his debut national tour, Reuben is hitting all major cities across Australia from 4 July, fans will experience the raw, soul-stirring sound of Reuben De Melo with his powerful voice and heartfelt indie folk style. From his breakout EP “Consumed” to his unforgettable rendition of “The House of the Rising Sun,” he’s become one of Australia’s most authentic new voices.
