Redcliffe Cultural Centre, Redcliffe www.moretonbay.qld.gov.auTOUR DATES - KEYS AND STRINGS LIVE SHOWS 2010 Fresh from the release of his new album REMEMBER JUNE and album shows in Sydney and Melbourne, Damien Leith will be touring Queensland with four shows announced for February 2010. Damien will perform traditional Irish classics and contemporary hits as well as stand out tracks from REMEMBER JUNE. Accompanied by the violin, guitar and piano Keys and Strings will showcase Damien’s striking vocals and audiences will discover why Damien is one of Australia's favourite live performers. True to his Celtic roots, the shows will see Damien perform a collection of Irish songs, many of which influenced his critically acclaimed REMEMBER JUNE, taking audiences on a journey from his musical past to present. From the folk tunes of the Dubliners and Christy Moore, to the smash hits of U2, the legendary tunes of Van Morisson and Damien Rice to the Operatic sounds of John McCormack, audiences will be treated to a musical fusion showcasing Damien’s development as a performer since he first landed on the Australian music scene in 2006 when won the 4th season of Australian Idol. Of his upcoming shows Damien said "My Irish background is incredibly important to me and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to take this show to the stage." Since REMEMBER JUNE debuted in Australia audiences and critics alike have been mesmerised by Damien’s pop-rock tracks and new found sound, comparative to the likes of U2, Keane, Roy Oribson and Coldplay.

Violin, guitar, piano and Damien's brilliant voice. This should be a fantastic show. I love the idea of Damien taking us from Irish folk tunes through to the present. ;D Cannot wait.

Poor Damien is going to be so tired for this one. He did the Toowoomba gig last night and is flying to Melourne to sing at the wedding organised by Hamish and Andy and then flying back to Queensland for this one. Damien is a trooper though, and the good side of it is that he has that extra hour because of no daylight saving in Queensland, plus there is a support person - Chris Hutchison I think. Have a great time all of you going to this one. The second leg of the Damienites road trip.

I've flown Bris/Mel/Bris in a day before, had to do it for work years ago. It's not that tough without luggage, and he'll be having fun. It's probably easier than a long car ride! bwah! ;D Have a ball at Redcliffe tonight ladies..
