About this act
Hugo Bladel is a singer from Hobart, Tasmania.
Hobart-based Hugo Bladel started out as a street busker and freestyle rapper before moving into recorded work as a singer, songwriter and producer. Both Ways came first as a single, followed by the EP Floppy Disco and the debut album HUGE, with the three releases together passing 400,000 streams on Spotify. A circus background feeds the physical side of the live show, matched with down-to-earth, relatable songwriting rather than a polished pop delivery. That combination has carried Hugo Bladel onto mainstage slots at Falls Festival, the Australian Open and Party In The Paddock, plus a booking at Wine Machine, and into support slots for The Presets, Angus & Julia Stone and Bastille.
