Chet Faker’s long-awaited album campaign is off to an impressive start – Built on Glass spent two weeks at the #1 spot on the ARIA Album Chart and is currently sitting pretty at #4 in its third week of release. The Melbourne artist has sold out an incredible four Forums in his home town of Melbourne and three Enmores in Sydney, as well as multiple dates in Perth and Brisbane and more.

It’s not just Australia that is falling for Chet’s classy work. He is currently on tour in the UK/Europe, where his entire run has sold out; over the other side of the Atlantic, multiple shows in New York and LA have followed suit.

Chet Faker is pleased to announce Rat & Co will be opening for him at all metro shows. The Melbourne group have been making a name for themselves in Europe and elsewhere for their spacious, spacey electronica. Main support comes from rising stars Yumi Zouma.

“A sublime effort.”
(4/5 The Age)

“Faker creates captivating sounds and songs that demand exploration. It’s a potent combination for a terrific album.”
Bernard Zuel, SMH

“This record is intelligent, succinct in its ambitions, and more than anything, it’s pretty bloody cool.”
(9/10 The Line of Best Fit)

“…an immensely appealing blend of airy club music, ’80s pop, and melancholy singer-songwriter sounds…”
Stereogum
