Xavier Rudd is bringing a month-long tour to St. Petersburg. The 41-year-old Australian songwriter and didgeridoo whiz will play Jannus Live on September 21 as part of a three-stop Florida swing that includes dates in Orlando (September 20 at Plaza Live) and Pensacola (September 19 at Vinyl Music Hall).
The show is happening in support of Rudd’s 2018 album, Storm Boy, which press materials describe as an “awakening” for Rudd, who’d notably fallen in love on the effort.
“It’s definitely a theme on the record,” Rudd said. ““Life feels strong and solid for me now… and this record is in a different space. It’s a solid space. I feel like I’ve come to the end of that chapter where I’ve learned a bunch of lessons and I’ve been shown a bunch of things spiritually.”
It’ll be the first time CL has seen Rudd in the area since a 2010 stop at State Theatre. Tickets for the St. Petersburg show at Jannus Live are $25 and available now via jannuslive.com.
