Troye Sivan Tickets

In past lives, Troye Sivan has been a child actor and a Youtube vlogger, but it’s clear he was born to be a pop star. His songs are made for blurry, salty, joyful summer nights in the club, while the unapologetic queerness of his work has flung open doors for celebratory representation.

Sivan was born in 1995 in Johannesburg and raised in Perth, Australia. As a child, he sang on local Australian TV and began posting covers on YouTube. A talent agent stumbling across his channel led to a stint as a child actor, where he appeared in X-Men Origins: Wolverine as a young Hugh Jackman and the South African franchise, Spud. In 2012, Sivan started posting vlogs to his Youtube channel and became a minor celebrity on the booming platform. 

In 2013, while in talks for a record deal with EMI Australia, Sivan publicly came out as gay in a YouTube video, later stating that it was important to him to embark on a music career in a way that was totally true to himself. In 2014, he released his debut EP, TRXYE, via EMI Australia. Demonstrating a dark electro-pop sound, it charted in the top-10 in the US, while single ‘Happy Little Pill’ was a taste of Sivan’s honest songwriting. He followed this up with a second EP, Wild, in 2015, before embarking on his first headlining tour through the US, Europe and Australia.

In December 2015, Sivan released his debut full-length album, Blue Neighbourhood, on which he continued to delve into an electro pop style, amid stories of coming-of-age, first love and heartbreak. The Guardian hailed the album as “immaculate” in a five-star review. He completed another world headlining tour through 2016. In 2017, Sivan was awarded the GLAAD Stephen F. Kolzak Award for his work towards eliminating homophobia. 

In 2018, Sivan released his second album, Bloom. Hits like the sultry ‘My My My!’ and Ariana Grande-featuring ‘Dance to This’ showed off a style that was more sensual, more dance-focused and more indebted to pop greats like Madonna. The album received 5-star reviews from NME and The Independent, with the latter naming Sivan “one of mainstream music's most revered and fascinating talents.” Sivan headed out on another blockbuster world tour through 2018 and 2019. In 2018, he returned to acting with a supporting role in Joel Edgerton’s Boy Erased; he also contributed the song ‘Revelation’ to the soundtrack, which was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Original Song. In October 2018, he appeared with Charli XCX on the hit single ‘1999’. 

In 2020, Sivan released the EP In A Dream, which saw him continue to experiment with his style. In 2021, he released the single ‘You’ with Regard and Tate McRae, which topped the US Hot Dance/Electronic chart for eight weeks; and the standalone single ‘Angel Baby’. Sivan also starred in the 2022 movie ‘Three Months’, to which he contributed two original songs, and co-starred in the 2023 television series The Idol. 

In 2023, Sivan released his third album, Something To Give Each Other, an excellent slice of hedonistic house-pop. Singles ‘Rush’, ‘One of Your Girls’ and ‘Got Me Started’ were global hits, with the former being nominated for Grammys for Best Pop Dance Recording and Best Music Video. The album garnered Sivan yet more critical acclaim, with NME declaring it “perfection”.
