Frontier Touring are delighted to announce the debut Australian headline tour of Los Angeles native and breakout alt-pop artist Ricky Montgomery – the Platinum-selling singer set to perform three East Coast theatre shows in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane this May/June, on The Rick Tour: Around The World and Rick Again. 

Having sold-out multiple venues across North America earlier this year, it’s time for fans down under to experience Ricky’s eloquent songwriting and emotive storytelling. With over 2 billion streams, 1.7M TikTok followers and 8 billion TikTok views, Ricky continues to foster his devoted fanbase who hang onto every word of his sunny, soul-searching alt-pop about life in all its messy and mundane glory – as heard on tracks such as ‘Truth Or Dare’, ‘Black Fins’, ‘Mr. Loverman’, and ‘Line Without a Hook’. September 2023 saw the release of his major label debut album: the 14-track Rick (Warner Music), which immediately incited unanimous praise from fans and critics alike upon release: 

‘The listener can’t help but pay attention to Montgomery’ – Billboard 

‘…A defining chapter in the career of Montgomery, fully coming into his own as an artist with depth, character and presence’ – WONDERLAND 

‘A soul-searching journey through life’s trials and triumphs, woven together by Montgomery’s eloquent songwriting skills, sometimes whimsical narratives and always emotive storytelling’ – FAULT Magazine

Tickets go on sale Friday 15 March (12pm local time) via frontiertouring.com/rickymontgomery. Frontier Members presale starts Thursday 14 March (11am local time) – see website for more info. 

Rich with electro-laced, emo-tinged alt-pop, Rick spins stories about life in all its messy and mundane glory. Ricky’s journey fits the bill: a childhood in L.A. interrupted by divorce, an adolescence playing in the basement bands of suburban Missouri, a viral explosion on a soon-to-implode platform, and a brief music career back on the West Coast that sent his songs up the US Billboard Rock and Alternative charts. 

“Rick is about my long, awkward path toward remembering myself as an artist. It’s been embarrassing and difficult, but also thrilling – kinda like changing your first name,” he says. “It’s everything I’ve ever wanted to do but was too scared to try.” 

With his authentic lyricism and vulnerable storytelling, Ricky Montgomery is a master of poignant, personal moments, artful beat-work, and delicate instrumentation.
