Ruel Younger Video

15-year-old multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter, Ruel has revealed the official video for his latest single Younger. Directed by Grey Ghost, the video is intended as a short film and explores what it means to choose your path early on in life.  Watch the video now.
 
"The storyline in the Younger video isn't a direct reinterpretation of the lyrics - so instead of it being about you and your mate choosing different paths over time, it's about choosing your own path," Ruel told Billboard Magazine.
  
Younger is the third official release taken from 15-year-old London-born, Australian-raised Ruel's incredible debut EP READY. Available on all digital platforms worldwide, the 6-track EP was produced by Ruel's good friend, mentor and collaborator M-Phazes (Eminem, Logic, Kimbra, Zara Larsson, KYLE) and includes previously released standouts, Don't Tell Me and Dazed & Confused which had PAPER Magazine praising it for its "million-dollar chorus" and "slow-burning beat sure to lodge itself in your prefrontal cortex ," and TIME Magazine drawing comparisons "in the vein of Purpose-era Justin Bieber's most mature and earworm-ready hits," adding "Dazed and Confused stands apart by drawing on blues and R&B for added depth."

After picking up and learning to play the guitar at 8 years old, Ruel started to write songs of his own, drawing inspiration from Amy Winehouse, Stevie Wonder, Dave Brubeck, Frank Ocean and James Blake. Drawing from his own experiences as a teenager, Ruel explains "all my songs are about personal experiences. Songwriting helps me get through things, feelings that I don't understand myself. When I write about something, it helps me figure it out in the process. But I want people of all ages, whether they're 15 or 50, to be able to relate to my songs."
 
Ruel played his first ever run of Australian headline shows this July, performing to sold out audiences at The Metro Theatre in Sydney, and at the Northcote Social Club in Melbourne. With much excitement, the rising star has just announced new Australian tour dates for this September and October. The READY tour kicks off in Melbourne in late September, and from there, Ruel will tour Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane and Sydney. For a full list of dates go here.
