Dane Rumble
If you’re looking for a sure bet on a pop artist destined for big things in the UK and the USA, Dane Rumble is your man. Signed to the Ministry of Sound label over in Australia he has been nominated for a staggering 6 NZ Music Awards and winner of 'Best Male Solo Artist.'
Dane is releasing Cruel through Let The People Speak on 20th of June of this year; formerly he released smash hit single 'Always Be Here,' which peaked at #6 on the overall radio airplay chart in New Zealand and landed Dane the #1 spot as Break Through artist on Australian radio.
To support the release high profile showcases are happening over in the Viper Room in LA (insert date) and the Santos Party House in New York (insert date) with a showcase happening on May 19th at London Dingwalls.
Dane has soared into the new decade with multiple hit singles under his belt, the most recent of which 'Takes Me Higher' went straight to #1 on iTunes as well as the New Zealand Music and Video charts.
Though thrilled with the reception of his music, Dane is no stranger to the industry, having spent a number of years in the phenomenally successful hip-hop outfit Fast Crew.
Opening for the likes of Missy Elliott, the Black Eyed Peas and D12, was a dream come true for the music-obsessed Kiwi lad who grew up listening to his step-dad’s beloved and battered AC/DC and Led Zeppelin tapes.
Breaking out in 2009 from hit hip hop crew Fast Crew, Dane embarked on a new solo journey - swapping hip-hop beats for his own distinct cutting edge sound. He openly admits it was a risky, and scary, move.
The results, of course, speak for themselves! In just 12 months, the enigmatic artist who has an ear for a killer melody has written and produced some of the most infectious tunes to reverberate the airwaves in recent years.
It is Dane’s instinctive sense of what makes a song a winner that has continued to drive his solo career; as well as the overwhelming response he’s had from those who matter the most -the listeners.
Crisscrossing New Zealand and Australia on sell out tours; Dane has earned a reputation as one of the hottest solo live performers in Australasia. With the anticipation of his US debut already mounting, we expect nothing less when he hits the UK ground running.
