LEIF VOLLEBEKK
Australian Tour May 2025
Handsome Tours are pleased to present the return of Leif Vollebekk this May!
Canadian singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Leif Vollebekk will bring his Revelation tour to Australia this May with four headline shows across both coasts. This tour comes off the back of his critically acclaimed alternative masterpiece Revelation which was released by Secret City / Remote Control Records late last year. A project which settled Leif into the realm of lasting indie-folk influence.
Recorded at both Sunset Sound in Los Angeles and Dreamland in Woodstock, New York, Revelation is both ethereal and grounded, evoking a deep sense of introspection. An artist’s artist with many colleagues as admirers, Vollebekk – who self-produced and played seven instruments on Revelation – compiled an impressive supporting cast that speaks to the caliber of musicianship and feel of the recordings, including legendary drummer Jim Keltner, notable steel guitarist Cindy Cashdollar, revered bassist Shahzad Ismaily, plus artists Angie McMahon and Anaïs Mitchell on background vocals.
All eleven tracks on Revelation blend narrative lyrics with one-take lead vocal performances, cinematic arrangements, rich soundscapes, and lush orchestration. The result is organic and earthy, with themes of nature—water, stars, mortality—woven into a reflection on living in a constantly changing present, infused with existential doubt and the quest for meaning.
