Kasey Chambers Tour
Kasey Chambers Australian Tour. Kasey Chambers will be performing in Townsville, Mandurah, Wollongong, Newcastle, Brisbane, Sydney, Adelaide, Canberra, Tumut, Sydney and Melbourne.
Off the back of three sold out city dates this month and to celebrate the release of her brand new album and number 2 ARIA chart debut, Australian singer, song writer and story teller Kasey Chambers will take Bittersweet on the road for a run of shows across the country throughout November and December.
Kasey’s tenth studio album and first solo record in four years, Bittersweet was produced by Nick DiDia (Pearl Jam, Bruce Springsteen, The Wallflowers, Powderfinger, The Living End) and is something of a departure for Kasey from the ‘expected’. “I wanted to have an experience making a record that I had never had before. I wanted to challenge myself and I wanted to be excited”, she says.
More so than ever before, Kasey Chambers is writing like a true storyteller. The broken-hearted nostalgia of title track Bittersweet, which will hit country radio September 22, captures the story of two old lovers from both sides. Sung as a duet with Powderfinger front man Bernard Fanning, Bittersweet showcases the exquisite song-writing and irresistible voice of one of Australia’s most gifted and enduring talents.
On working with Kasey on Bittersweet, Fanning commented, “Kasey sent me a rough version of Bittersweet and I was very keen to sing the counter part. I did initially try to convince her to swap the roles in the tune so I wouldn’t have to play the part of such a bastard but she said it suited me too well and wouldn’t hear of it. I started tinkering around with it on the piano and added a bridge section with some harmonica. It all came together very quickly in the studio. It’s such a pleasure for me to sing with someone like Kasey. She has such effortless control and sings with so much soul.”
Joining Kasey for all shows (excluding Thirroul) is nomadic young singer, song writer Kim Churchill. Kim first gained attention in 2009 when he won the East Coast Blues & Roots Fest’s busking competition and has regularly appeared on the Bluesfest line-up ever since. Kim returns to Australia from touring the US and UK supporting Billy Bragg and playing the 2014 Glastonbury Festival. Kim Churchill’s third studio album Silence/Win was released via Warner Music in May this year.
