Richie Weed, the unmistakable voice of Tumbleweed, stepped into bold new territory with his debut solo album Strays (2024). Recorded live-to-tape, the album captures raw honesty and spirit, marking a powerful new chapter in his career. Strays is made of songs written over the years that didn’t fit into the heavy psychedelic groove of Tumbleweed, and unlike that iconic Tarrawanna sound, no distortion pedals.
Just off the back of touring nationally with Jeff Martin (The Tea Party) and ARIA Award–winner Shane Nicholson in a sold-out celebration of Neil Young’s music, Richie is also collaborating with Zia McCabe (The Dandy Warhols) and Ricky Maymi (Brian Jonestown Massacre) on an upcoming project, Arktik Lake.
On tour now, Richie Weed & His Band of Strays brings his songs, stories, and spirit to the stage—an intimate and electrifying journey from one of Australia’s most enduring and inventive voices.
