Royel Otis have announced a special homecoming show in Sydney.
The indie-pop duo, fresh off their triumphant night at the 2024 ARIA Awards where they scooped up four accolades, have announced a one-off show titled ‘Coming Home’ at the iconic Hordern Pavilion on Saturday, December 21st.
The upcoming performance marks a significant milestone for the band, as it will be their largest Australian headline show to date. They view it as an opportunity to express gratitude to their Aussie fans, friends, and family for their unwavering support throughout their breakout year.
Tickets to their homecoming show go on sale to the general public on Wednesday, November 27th at 4pm AEDT. The Frontier Members pre-sale begins on Tuesday, November 26th at 3pm AEDT.
2024 has been nothing short of extraordinary for Royel Otis. Their success at the ARIA Awards, where they clinched Best Group, Best Rock Album, Best Engineered Release, and Best Produced Release (the latter two going to Chris Collins) for their debut album PRATTS & PAIN, is a testament to their rising prominence in the Australian music scene.
Royel Maddell and Otis Pavlovic make up the band, who have emerged as one of the most exciting Australian guitar outfits of recent years.
Rolling Stone AU/NZ praised PRATTS & PAIN upon its release in February, saying, “After three EPs that have led to considerable buzz here and abroad, Sydney duo Royel Otis (Royel Maddell and Otis Pavlovic) have delivered their first LP, a collection of propulsive, danceable indie pop.”
The review continued, “The largely indiscernible lyrics don’t stick, but there’s enough playful sonic trickery and fizzy, feel-good melodies (see: “Sofa King”) to make this a post-summer party soundtrack that mostly delivers on the hype.”
They also featured in our ‘Future of Music’ series, highlighting them as “Australia’s next indie pop darlings.”
“If Good Morning had to bide their time to turn mainstream heads, there was no such wait for the mysterious Royel Otis. The Sydney duo make guitar-led music sound like the coolest thing in the world, particularly on their acclaimed debut album, PRATTS & PAIN.
That followed three promising EPs — 2021’s Campus, 2022’s Bar & Grill, and 2023’s Sofa Kings — and Royel Maddell and Otis Pavlovic’s remarkable current hit rate is almost as impressive as their endlessly catchy songs,” we wrote.
