Australian singer-songwriter Ziggy Alberts is back and better than ever with the release of his highly-anticipated seventh studio album, New Love, out now via his own label, Commonfolk Records. Known for his breezy acoustic vibes and heartfelt storytelling, Ziggy invites listeners into a world of second chances, self-worth, and the magic hidden in life’s simple moments.
New Love isn’t just another album—it’s a spiritual sequel to his fan-favorite Laps Around The Sun, crafted on the road in the UK and designed with live performances in mind. Divided into two thematic halves, Side A (the “North”) offers the warm, intimate tracks fans have come to love, while Side B (the “South”) dives into deeper tones with expansive instrumentation. The result? A perfectly balanced, start-to-finish listening experience that begs for a sunny afternoon and a long road trip.
Speaking on the album’s message, Ziggy shares, “The record, to me, has a message and meaning of a return to simplicity. Despite life’s chaos and how far you’ve come, life can still be led by magic and adventure—if you choose joy and choose to do good.”
One standout track, “Learn Yourself”, is out now and already striking a chord with fans. Anchored by raw guitar melodies and Ziggy’s signature soft, emotive vocals, the song champions self-acceptance and embracing your truest self. “Honestly, ‘Learn Yourself’ was one of the best sonic moments of the album,” Ziggy reveals. “It was written on the beach at sunset in Hawaii, and it carries that sweet, hopeful vibe. Lyrics like ‘remember you are made of stars’ speak to the heart of the record.”
The music video for “Learn Yourself” opens with Ziggy’s spoken word poem “Flowers Bathed In Sunlight”, setting the tone for the reflective, feel-good track. Other album highlights include the crowd-favorites “Outlaw”, “Where Does The Love Go?”, and the title track “I’m With You”—each layered with Ziggy’s classic blend of folk, acoustic chill, and soulful introspection.
But wait, there’s more! Ziggy just announced his global New Love tour, and it’s MASSIVE. Fans worldwide can catch him in iconic cities like Los Angeles, Toronto, Mexico City, Barcelona, Paris, and London’s Royal Albert Hall for a career-defining headline show. UK fans, get ready—he’s hitting up Cambridge, Brighton, Edinburgh, Leeds, and more. Known for his spirited solo sets, Ziggy’s live shows are raw, authentic, and a guaranteed vibe.
