XAVIER RUDD published in June the brand new 'White Month', the fourth album of his career. The single 'Better People' represents the more melodic part of Rudd's oeuvre, while there are many tracks in which the artist engages with ethnic instruments of various kinds, from wind and string instruments to percussion. From reggae to world music, passing between pop and folk, the blond musician's fourth discography is a work of absolute value. Xavier Rudd interprets a consistent lifestyle to the full: he has embraced the 'zero impact' project, which will lead him to use only highly ecological means of transport on tour. Xavier's relationship with the earth has always been at the heart of his philosophy. Also known as a surfer, his respect for nature and his own roots makes him one of the most interesting protagonists of contemporary art.
Even Italian music critics have already been fascinated by this artist who is both sunny and complex at the same time, with a musical background ranging from Paul Simon to Ben Harper to the music of his friends Jack Johnson and Ani di Franco.
Already acclaimed by foreign critics, especially American ones, Rudd is in fact receiving great recognition in Italy. XL of Repubblica connects his music with a sense of purity, for JAM we are in front of an unparalleled talent, while he has obtained large spaces on the most important radio stations, especially on the frequencies of Radio Popolare, Radio Deejay and Lifegate.
