Holly Humberstone Announces Sydney Headline Show

October 10, 2023

British pop artist Holly Humberstone has announced a headline show at Sydney’s Metro Theatre. Humberstone will play an all-ages show on Thursday, 4th January, which falls in between her appearances at Heaps Good Festival.

Humberstone was announced on the Heaps Good lineup in mid-September, playing alongside Flume, The Avalanches, UK rock outfit Foals, London producer SBTRKT, English singer-songwriter Declan McKenna, and more. The festival will travel to Melbourne, Brisbane, and Adelaide over the New Year’s period – see all the dates below.

Holly Humberstone: ‘Room Service’

Humberstone’s debut album Paint My Bedroom Black will be released this Friday, 13th October. We’ve heard a number of singles from the record so far, including ‘Antichrist’, ‘Into Your Room’, ‘Kissing in Swimming Pools’, and ‘Superbloodmoon’, which features close friend d4vd.

The album, which follows her hugely successful EPs The Walls Are Way Too Thin and Falling Asleep At The Wheel, was pulled together over a number of years, as Humberstone grappled with sudden stardom.

“The fear of change is something I struggle with,” Humberstone told NME recently. “And nostalgia is something I feel really strongly all the time. I write about my sisters and my upbringing because they represent my core. These songs helped me to make sense of how it felt to be away from home.”
