Dean Lewis coming to The Fillmore and check out new track Trust Me Mate

October 13, 2023

Australian singer/songwriter Dean Lewis has just released his new single, Trust Me Mate, which is an emotionally driven heartfelt track about helping a loved one through a difficult time, feeling lost. When you feel like you are in the darkest of times, this song brings the light. It is such an amazing song, so full of raw emotion. It is like that feeling you get, when someone gives you a much needed hug and you are just about to let go and the other person knows how much you need to be held longer, giving you a warm comforting hug. It is those moments where you feel safe again, that is what this song brings out. Check out the song here: Dean is currently on his ‘Future Is Bright’ World Tour, which at the end of the year will see him play close to 100 shows/festivals in Australia, UK, Europe, ASIA and USA. He will be performing at the legendary Fillmore in San Francisco on October 21st. Check the website for all upcoming tour dates. Make [Read More]
