About the Artist

Ziggy Alberts is a coastal folk singer-songwriter hailing from the East Coast of Australia, known for his heartfelt storytelling and environmental passion. Starting his musical journey in 2011 with a guitar and a dream, Ziggy quickly carved out a niche through busking, house shows, and all-ages events, embodying the spirit of independent artistry. His live performances are intimate yet powerful, often marked by moments of profound connection, such as the iconic silence following a crowd of 2,000 singing every word to his song 'Gone.' Fans cherish his journey from regional tours to sold-out theatre shows and main stage appearances at major festivals like Byron Bay Bluesfest. Ziggy's music, including hits like 'Runaway' and 'Heaven,' blends coastal folk vibes with raw, soulful emotion, creating an atmosphere that feels both personal and universal. His story is one of self-funding and relentless dedication, proving that authenticity and connection can transcend the traditional music industry pathways. Plus, his ability to make a packed theatre feel like a cozy campfire sing-along is nothing short of magical—no smoke signals required.
