An intimate studio performance with limited tickets available (unreserved seating).

Multi-platinum singer / songwriter Damien Leith will take his forthcoming album Chapter Seven on the road with a national Australian Tour beginning in Perth on Thursday 31st October. The show will be an intimate acoustic setting and will feature all his new songs as well as some of the songs he’s well-known for. Audiences will be treated to beautifully crafted songs, some he even wrote with legendary Joe Melson who wrote Roy Orbison’s Crying and Only the Lonely.

“I’m really looking forward to taking these songs on the road and getting out to places I haven’t been to in a while,” said Damien.

The “Without A Fight” Tour will travel to Australian capital cities and regional centres, including Perth, Joondalup, Mandurah, Gold Coast, Redcliffe, Brisbane, Mudgee, Katoomba, Cronulla, Wollongong, Launceston, Hobart, Canberra, Melbourne, Nowra, Taree, Port Macquarie and Sydney.

Chapter Seven is Damien’s seventh album since 2006. The acoustic pop and folk release represents an exciting new direction for the Irish-born Australian. Two years in the making, the album will be Damien’s first as a producer and first with independent Sydney-based label Social Family Records. Damien penned 12 new original tracks for the album, which he recorded in Sydney in a studio he built himself.

Famed producer and sound engineer David Nicholas – who has worked with luminaries from Elton John to INXS - mixed Chapter Seven and co-produced some of the tracks. Other great hit makers such as Gary Clark (Natalie Imbruglia, The Wanted, The Veronicas) and Jon Vella (Meatloaf, Ricky Martin) have added their touch to the album along with legendary Nashville-based songwriter Joe Melson. Famed for penning a string of rhythm and blues hits with the one and only Roy Orbison, including Only The Lonely and Crying, Joe Melson has been writing with Damien for some time now and Joe has become a close friend and mentor to Damien.

Greg and I arrived at Nowra and we're quite taken aback by the size if the place and the lack of cars in the carpark, we met up with Carla and Dale and hear off to enjoy a lovely Christmas dinner together, there were only a few tables but the dinner was delicious, the crowd was mainly older people again, quite a few of them with walkers and ride on scooters, we had to sit a few rows back but the view was fantastic, didn't get a set list, it was too dark but Damien sang a few different snippets, Blue Boyou, Jingle Bells along with When A Child Is Born, 22 Steps and most of the usual set list, some one asked Damien to sing Danny Boy, it was the most interesting start to the song I've ever heard, Damien said there's a couple of people who didn't want to hear it he mentioned that it wasn't one of his favorite songs either but it has grown on him, after lots of giggles and Damien finally composing himself he managed to get through the song, he did sound good. The crowd enjoyed it too and there was lots of singing and joining in, it was lovely catching up with Carla and Dale with lots of laughs, we got to chat with Andy, Eric and Damien after the show, I think Greg has found a new best friend haha, it was another fantastic night and Eric is still confused lol, I think this is going to be ongoing every time we see Damien from now on hehe.
