Folk luminary Allen Stone has announced a slew of four headline shows in support of his upcoming performance at Bluesfest in 2019.
Stone will play a set of shows in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane this April ahead of his performances at Bluesfest’s 30th Anniversary Event.
It’s been a fruitful year for stone, who recently released his gorgeous new single ‘Warriors’ – which he debuted at the opening ceremony at the Special Olympics in Seattle earlier this year. In a statement, Stone has gone into detail about the song, stating “This song came in a period of struggle. Inspiration hadn’t come through to visit for a while. I had felt like I was just pushing a big rock up a hill while wearing flip-flops. I was reminded in that moment that true success comes when you face adversity head on and push through those moments of hardship. Walk tall like Warriors even when terrified”
