Multi-platinum and ARIA award winning genre-defying Australian artist Illy announces his seventh record ‘Good Life’ for release later this year, as well as the announce of The Good Life Tour. These announcements come with the release of the single ‘Good Life’, the second single to come from Illy this year. Produced by Cam Bluff (Hilltop Hoods, Amy Shark), and co-written with DMA’s Johnny Took, “Good Life” is about embracing the ’never say die’ spirit, and pushing forward even in the hardest of times."I can’t wait to be back on stages playing Good Life. Seriously, cannot. The entirely of the album process was spent with “how does it make sense live?” at the front of mind. The new songs work so well with the classics, and we are going to leave everything out on stage. Come get around it” says Illy of the tour announcement.
Illy has seamlessly straddled the line between hip hop and pop throughout his decorated career, embracing new sonic inspirations across each of his six critically acclaimed studio albums. After receiving his third ARIA nomination for 2013 record “Cinematic” - home to 3x platinum single and fan-favourite “Tightrope” – Illy’s follow up project “Two Degrees” (2016) shot to #1 on the ARIA charts, featuring multi-platinum collaborations “Papercuts ft. Vera Blue” (5x), and “Catch 22 ft. Anne-Marie” (3x). 2021’s “The Space Between” marked Illy’s second ARIA #1 album, with lead single “Then What” ticking over to 2x ARIA platinum. An ARIA Award winner for Best Live Act, Illy has performed at high profile festivals including Falls Festival, Splendour In The Grass, Snow Machine, and Spilt Milk. In 2023, his “Ausmusic Medley” reached #12 in triple j’s Hottest 100 of Like A Version.
