NEW SINGLE: Thndo '4EVA' + ARETHA: A Love Letter to the Queen of Soul Tour
Powerhouse vocalist thndo is back with a hopeful heartfelt message in her latest single ‘4EVA’
Inviting audiences into her R&B and soul-soaked musical world, Naarm/Melbourne’s powerhouse vocalist thndo is back with her first release for 2023 with the uplifting track ‘4EVA’, out Friday 2 June.
After kicking off 2022 as a finalist on The Voice Australia 2022, the singer breathed life into a new chapter with her single ‘Fall’ and ‘The Reintroduction Tour’ with dates across Australia. ‘Fall’ rendered listeners heartbroken in her honesty, thndo adorns her melodies with a message of hope in this next release ‘4EVA’, weaving her stories of strength, with those of love, empowerment and sensuality. Bask in her vocal prowess as she also takes to the stage in June as a part of ‘ARETHA: A Love Letter to the Queen of Soul’ across the country at iconic venues including The Sydney Opera House, Hamer Hall, and more.
Out Friday 2 June via Ditto, ‘4EVA’ takes thndo’s unabashed candor and charm in the form of a soul-stirring love story. Her vocals, a fusion of rich range and powerful elegance, fold into the backdrop of a perfectly understated rhythm section, as her lyrics bring simplicity to the conflict and complications of a relationship. “No measure of time will ever be enough for me to show you all that I have and giving my whole heart up to you.” - thndo
‘4EVA’ is “a declaration of love born from the ever-changing landscape of life. Two completely different people enter a relationship compared to the ones that live it, and in some cases leave it. It's about what we learn from it, and ultimately choosing to walk beside the many different versions of each other.” - thndo
A multi-faceted entertainer; thndo’s work not only speaks truth to power, but as a performer, her presence radiates a natural warmth and charisma that has endeared her to audiences nationwide. Every performance of hers is a statement; her evolution is easily traceable as she dominates stages around Australia in different formats; whether it be in a theatre, headlining her own acclaimed shows, commanding festival crowds at events including WOMADelaide, Groovin The Moo, Woodford Folk Festival and BIGSOUND.
This June, thndo is joined by Emma Donovan, Montaigne, Thandi Phoenix and Ursula Yovich, for ‘ARETHA: A Love Letter to the Queen of Soul’; a powerful concert performance and memoir that celebrates one of the greatest voices in contemporary music with shows across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Adelaide.
Don’t sleep on your opportunity to see Thndo alongside some of Australia’s most dynamic performers bringing Arthea Franklin’s greatest hits to life, plus her own performance as part of the Adelaide Cabaret Festival.
