Ruel Announces New Album ‘Kicking My Feet’ and Drops Dreamy Single ‘The Suburbs’

Global pop sensation Ruel has announced the release of his highly anticipated sophomore album Kicking My Feet, arriving October 17. To mark the news, the ARIA Award-winning artist has unveiled a brand-new single, “The Suburbs”, a dreamy pop cut that captures both intimacy and vulnerability.

Written with an impressive roster of collaborators including Fran Hall (Charli XCX, Kelly Clarkson), M-Phazes (Demi Lovato, Madonna), Chelsea Lena (Sabrina Carpenter, Joji) and Elias Danielsen, the track paints a picture of a simple, love-filled life away from the chaos of the city. Built on lush melodies and Ruel’s trademark soaring vocals, “The Suburbs” reflects the singer’s evolving maturity and emotional depth.

The single follows the success of last month’s “I Can Die Now”, which premiered in New York’s Times Square on MTVbefore racking up over a million streams within days. Praised globally, including by Rolling Stone U.S., the track set the tone for Ruel’s new creative era.

Kicking My Feet sees Ruel step into new sonic territory, working alongside heavyweight producers such as Julian Bunetta (Sabrina Carpenter, One Direction), Joel Little (Taylor Swift, Gracie Abrams), Kenny Beats (Dominic Fike, Ed Sheeran) and longtime collaborator M-Phazes. Across more than 200 demos, Ruel distilled a collection that feels bold, liberated and emotionally resonant.

With The Suburbs out now and Kicking My Feet just weeks away, Ruel continues to prove why he remains one of Australia’s most exciting global pop exports.
