KYLE LIONHART CONFIRMS RELEASE DATE FOR NEW SINGLE 'SHELTER'
Byron Bay singer songwriter Kyle Lionhart has today confirmed a release date of May 27 for his highly anticipated new single, SHELTER, with the track available to pre-order now. It will be his first new music since September 2020’s track, Beautiful Life. Pre-order Shelter HERE.
On the live front, Lionhart has added Perth and Central Coast to his extensive run of dates on the Shelter single tour. He will now play in Perth on June 10 at Milk Bar, and Kincumber on the Central Coast in an afternoon show at Shady Palms on June 18.
The tour commences in Brisbane on June 2, before concluding in Ballarat on June 24.
In addition to Shelter, Lionhart will perform select tracks from his highly anticipated second album, set for release later this year, giving audiences the opportunity to hear this new music for the first time.
Kyle said today, “Shelter is an intensely personal song that I wrote as a clear reminder to never let myself lose everything that’s important to me again. I look forward to sharing it, and the stories behind it, with people very soon. To be able to tour again, after such a difficult couple of years, is truly inspiring and I cannot wait to play live, in person, again!”
Kyle Lionhart honed his craft and began to build a sizeable and extremely loyal fanbase by busking on the streets and beaches of the Northern Rivers region of NSW. In February 2015, Kyle self-released his debut EP Keep In Mind. At a time when even major labels were struggling to sell CDs, Kyle sold out more than 10,000 copies. His music and reputation soon spread around the world thanks to the enthusiastic reviews of impressed tourists and it wasn’t long before record labels began to notice the young busker, who was drawing crowds in the hundreds on the main street of Byron Bay.
Kyle signed to Ivy League Records in 2016 and a year later released his second EP entitled Eleven & Two. The EP generated over 10 million streams and lead to a sold out national Australian tour, a European tour with Xavier Rudd and a debut London headline show that sold out within a week of going on sale.
Following EPs Keep In Mind and Eleven & Two, Kyle released his acclaimed 2019 debut album Too Young, featuring streaming hits Sorry I’m Gone (feat. Emily Reid, Holding On and So Close. 2020 revealed standalone singles Beautiful Life, Dream It Right and a stunning cover of the The Cranberries’ classic, Dreams.

Kyle has amassed more than 50 million streams to date and has enjoyed sold out headline shows across Australia, also playing festivals such as Splendour In The Grass and Bluesfest and opening for Xavier Rudd, Foy Vance and Niall Horan.
