Saturday January 28, 2017 :

RÜFÜS hit Newcastle’s West’s City on Saturday night as part of their Full Bloom tour. Supported by Winston Surfshirt and LANKS, the Sydney trio played to a completely sold out Newcastle crowd.

The Full Bloom tour comes off the back of extensive shows across North America, with vocalist Tyrone Lindqvist commenting how nice it is to be back in warm weather. The alternative dance act wasted no time in launching into their hits, opening their set with ‘Sundream’, a track Lindqvist dedicated to the Australian Summer.

RÜFÜS keep their stage show simple and self sufficient. The band doesn’t take the path of many other electronic acts, choosing instead to play each element of their stage show completely live.

It’s clear RÜFÜS genuinely love what they do and they do it well; their extensive touring schedule of 2016 means that punters of the 14 date national tour can expect a tight and fun performance.
