Hailing from East London, Rudimental - composed of Piers Aggett, Kesi Dryden, and Leon "Locksmith" Rolle - have firmly cemented themselves as one of dance music’s most successful acts over the past decade. Following their previous performance at the Christchurch Town Hall, the trio will unveil RUDIM3NTAL - an exciting new show for their upcoming headline tour. Captivating and euphoric, RUDIM3NTAL sees the group behind the decks to encapsulate the remarkable energy from their early drum n bass DJ sets, creating an incredible atmosphere for fans. 

Rudimental, speaking on their excitement to go back to their DJ roots have said 

“We’re bringing something fresh to the stage – a DJ set that hits harder, with visuals that match the energy of our tracks and give you a taste of where we’re heading. Think bass meets soul, mixed up the Rudimental way. This is all about the music we’ve been crafting and the vibe of what’s to come on the new album. Can’t wait for you to feel it.”

Most recently, Rudimental released their single The Feeling, featuring 1991, PNAU, and AR/CO, which has received widespread acclaim. Bringing a fresh energy, The Feeling seamlessly combines elements from each artist, delivering a captivating drum and bass/pop hybrid. Since its very recent release on October 25, the single has already surpassed 300,000 streams worldwide and earned spots on several prominent playlists across Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon, including New Music Friday (Australia and New Zealand), The Best New Music, and Future Dance Hits.

With an impressive career that includes over 5 billion streams, four celebrated albums, and more than 3 million albums sold worldwide, Rudimental continues to dominate the charts and streaming platforms. The band’s previous offerings ‘Dancing Is Healing’ garnered over 100M worldwide streams and peaked in the Top 5 of the UK Singles Chart, while ‘Alibi’ landed in the Top 10. Recent collaborations include 'Ram Pam’ with Flowdan & Mystic Marley and ‘Bring Me Joy’ with Karen Harding, with the latter surpassing 15 million worldwide streams.
