Australian singer-songwriter Ruby Fields has announced details for her long-awaited second album and an accompanying headline tour of Australia.
Set for release on Friday, April 24th, Small Achievements is the follow-up to Fields’ 2021-released debut album, Been Doin’ it for a Bit, which debuted at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums chart.
“Working at the Nudge (Billinudgel Hotel) between touring meant becoming a part of the family and getting to know Sharky – a beloved patron and piece of the furniture,” Fields said.
“When he received his Hole-in-1 trophy from the local golf course it was immediately displayed behind the bar. To me, that small gesture represents a place that celebrates everyone’s achievements, it doesn’t really matter how big or small they are, just how much they mean to you.
“So, I want this album to be a reminder to celebrate shit, because we tend to focus on the next big thing without reflecting on how much we’ve already achieved.”
Fields has already dropped a few singles from the record – “92 Purebred”, “Half the Laugh” and “Tacklebox” – and this week, the South Coast artist has released the latest cut, “Muscle”.
“‘Muscle’ is an ode to my life in the Northern Rivers,” she explained.”

“The role of fear and of love in community and in the natural environment. I also know we have crocodiles in Australia, but you try rhyming crocodiles with indicators.”
To celebrate the album, Fields will kick off her headline tour on release day in Melbourne, followed by stops in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Fremantle.
