Following on from a critically acclaimed back catalog, Jordie Lane returns to Australia for the second leg of his Tropical Depression album tour, of which he sold out 7 of his 13 shows on the East Coast, and the new album went to No. 1 on the ARIA Australian Country Albums Chart.

His first ever record label release via ABC Music, the new LP has been heralded as; ‘His best album to date’ by Rhythms Magazine, and described as a ‘masterclass in songwriting’ by ABC Country.

Recorded in Nashville, Tennessee, with Grammy nominated producer, engineer and instrumentalist Jon Estes (Kacey Musgraves, Dolly Parton, Rodney Crowell), and mixed by famed engineer Noah Georgeson (The Strokes, Devandra Banhart, Andy Shauf, Marlon Williams) and mastered by Juno Award winning Philip Shaw Bova (Feist, Father John Misty, Angel Olsen, Bahamas).

Jordie Lane marks this new chapter with a sound that consistently defies genres, with his latest wandering somewhere close to the outskirts of Americana and 60’s inspired Folk while “creating a pathbreaking and inspiring sound” all of its own. With Irreverent wit and satirical commentary, the songs on Tropical Depression tackle (among other things) Lane’s own experience with severe weather (ignited by a close call with an EF-3 Tornado) and its eventual collision with his own mental health battles.

Jordie Lane has continued to delight audiences around the world now for over a decade, performing major festivals in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada. He has toured with a wide range of international legends, from Gotye to Billy Bragg, Cat Power to Old Crow Medicine Show, Ruthie Foster to The Moody Blues and several tours with Aussie legends The Waifs.
