FAQs

Is Anderson .Paak expected to tour Australia as a solo act or with a full live band format?

Whenever Anderson .Paak tours, he does so with a full band. Typically, he is accompanied by Free Nationals, an R&B band from Los Angeles who have released their own self-titled studio album in 2019, which was nominated for Best Progressive R&B album at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards. 

 

When playing live, Paak typically maintains his main instrumental work as drummer and lead vocalist while the members of Free National provide backing vocals and handle instruments such as electric guitar, bass, piano, keyboard and, when needed, drums. When Anderson .Paak embarks on his next tour in Australia, chances are highly likely that Free Nationals will accompany him. He does not tend to perform solo.

Which Grammy-winning tracks and collaborative hits are most likely to feature in his Australian setlist?

Anderson .Paak already has a prolific back catalogue across four key studio albums, two collaborative albums under NxWorries, as well as his work under Silk Sonic with Bruno Mars. This includes award-winning tracks that are a huge draw for his ever-growing fanbase.

 

When Paak does make his long-awaited return to Australian shores, some likely tracks you can expect to experience live include:

 

  • “Come Down” - Malibu (2016)
  • “Am I Wrong” (feat. Schoolboy Q) - Malibu (2016)
  • “Heart Don’t Stand a Chance” - Malibu (2016)
  • “Tints” (feat. Kendrick Lamar) - Oxnard (2018)
  • “Bubblin” - single released in 2018
  • “King James” - Ventura (2019)
  • “Make It Better” (feat. Smokey Robinson) - Ventura (2019); both the song and album were Grammy winners
  • “Lockdown” - single released in 2020; Grammy winner
  • “Leave the Door Open” - An Evening with Silk Sonic (2021); collaboration with Bruno Mars
  • “Smokin Out the Window” - An Evening with Silk Sonic (2021)
  • “Suede” Yes Lawd! (2016); collaboration with producer Knxwledge, under the artist name NxWorries
  • “Dang!”  - featured on Mac Miller album The Divine Feminine (2016)
  • “RNP” - featured on Cordae album, The Lost Boy (2019)
  • “GLOWED UP” - featured on KAYTRANADA album, 99.9% (2016)

What VIP, early-entry or premium ticket categories are available for Australian shows?

The availability of VIP, early-entry or premium tickets largely depends on the promotional organisers and possible choices by the artist. 

 

If VIP, early-entry, or premium ticket options are made available during Anderson .Paak’s next Australian tour, you may be able to access them here at Ticket Merchant (this can be dependent on seller discretion). 

 

VIP options can include opportunities like meeting the band before or after the show, receiving exclusive merchandise, or enjoying premium drinks (depending on the venue). Similarly premium tickets often grant you access to the best views for the show or receiving extra perks (complimentary drinks, merchandise, etc.). 

 

The best way to know if these types of tickets are included during the next Anderson .Paak tour is to sign up to the Ticket Merchant waitlist. As his last national tour occurred in 2019, it’s expected there will be high demand.

What seating areas offer the best sound quality for a groove-driven, live-instrument performance?

The ideal seating area will depend on the size of the venue and how seating is organised, but the main objective is to find the right acoustic zone. Depending on the venue, the three key areas to consider are:

 

Front-of-house / mixing desk area

This is the section (usually part of the general standing area) where the sound engineer mixes the show. You don’t want to be at the very front of the crowd as much of the noise will project past you and you’ll lose the texture of different sounds. But when you settle into a good spot here (at least 10 to 20 rows back, typically), you should get a good amount of clarity for vocals, drums, bass, and other instruments.

 

Centre, mid-distance from stage

The next section to consider is what would qualify as around the central point of the venue, whether you’re in a standing or seating area. This position helps limit overpowering bass or experiencing distorted highs. It often results in a full, cohesive mix of the band and is a great position to take for groove-heavy performances.

 

Slightly elevated seating (e.g. lower bowl)

Opting for slightly elevated seating (such as the initial rows of seating just above the standing area) allows sound to travel more cleanly without obstruction. Ideally, you want to opt for seating that’s more centralised (facing the stage front-on). This results in cleaner separation of instruments and the sounds will more effortlessly travel towards the centre.

 

With the above three options, the key factor to take into account is that opting for a more central spot that’s a bit further back from the stage is best. Being too close to the stage, right up towards the back of the venue or being positioned on the sides of the venue will limit how the sound reaches you and cause some detail to be lost.
