Overview
Taking his fearless, self-reflective tracks on the road yet again, Perfume Genius gives Aussie audiences a brave insight into what makes him tick. This Seattle native has a knack for pushing boundaries, famous for his daring depictions of sexuality and high-strung ballads that bleed with angst, anger and alienation.
Off the back of two soulful records, Mike Hadreas (the man behind the stage name) struggled his way to completing his third studio offering Too Bright, released late last year. Thwarted by expectation, Hadreas has overcome insecurity and doubt to return with sleek, spine-tingling songs notably richer in vocal textures than his previous works.
Donning a sharp new look to accompany his shift in sound, Hadraes plays up his divisive trademark style with an album exploring the universal experience of self-awareness and discovery. Touring across Canada and the States later this year, catch Perfume Genius before he heads home at highly-anticipated shows in Sydney and Melbourne.
