‘ON HOLD’
.

“Ziggy is just 24 years old but he’s already got five independently released records under his belt and played countless shows around the world. However, his third album Laps Around The Sun, puts the young musician on the cusp of even greater popularity.” – TRIPLE J ‘Feature Album of the Week’
“If you like powerful, soulful voices like Dermot Kennedy and storytellers like Vance Joy, then this is for you.” – SUBSTREAM

Ziggy Alberts is excited to reveal the new music video for his album focus track ‘On Hold’. Watch the official music video on YouTube. ‘On Hold’ is off Ziggy’s new album, Laps Around The Sun, recently released on 9 November 2018.

“On Hold is about working through things with somebody even if it wasn’t what you signed up for, and being thankful that you are doing that – even if it isn’t easy. That’s where some really pivotal self-growth comes from.” – ZIGGY ALBERTS
.
‘On Hold’ is a different music video from what Ziggy has produced in the past. This music video shows a light-hearted and humorous side to Ziggy and his song writing. He says: “There is one line in the lyrics of the song which references ‘milk crates’. We took that line and ran with it; making a music video which follows a funny subplot about a milk man who discovers new options of milk – even though it wasn’t what he was looking for or what he was selling to his customers.” – ZIGGY ALBERTS

Ziggy’s fifth record, Laps Around The Sun has been well received since its release on 9 November 2018. After premiering on Billboard Magazine and as ‘Album of the Week’ on triple j, the album has been streamed over 4 million times on Spotify alone. In its first week, the album charted to #2 on the ARIA Australian Artist Album Charts, #6 on the ARIA Digital Album Charts and #9 on the ARIA Albums Chart.
At only 24 years old Ziggy has released five records, co-founded his own label Commonfolk Records, played sold out tours across the world, and his music has effortlessly amassed over 115 million streams, globally.
Ziggy showing just how far you can push the boundaries as an independent artist. After releasing three chart topping singles, selling out his first headline North America Tour and releasing an ARIA charting album, this singer-songwriter is about to embark on his first world tour, which celebrates his album release for Laps Around The Sun.
Before commencing the AU/NZ leg of the Laps Around The Sun World Tour, Ziggy has officially SOLD OUT all 36 dates (24,500 tickets).
