Damien Leith
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.
Saturday 16th November 2013 - 19.00

But as always, Damien was fantastic and so lovely. Oh...and he started with Last Sad Song which was such a highlight And we loved the duets with Andy...especially See You Again! Thank you Sue for always being such wonderful company and such a great friend and thank you Damien for always being so amazing xx |

I've got a bit of a long trip ahead of me so I'm doing this while I'm on the train for the first leg if my journey home. The show last night was brilliant, The Heritage is such a nice little place, Damien was sounding really good even though there were a couple if little tech difficulties to start with, I don't have a set list but he sang a lot of songs including Nessun Dorma, Crying, Danny Boy , Hallelujah and 22 steps, along with Only The Lonely and Pretty Woman and of course songs from Chapter Seven There wasn't a huge crowd and there were a mixture of ages, we got to have a quick chat before we were rushed out the door by a rude security guard. It was so lovely spending time with Carla and her family and Damien was as gorgeous as ever, it was also nice seeing Spud and her friends at the show, I was excited to hear that our Thornbury show is nearly sold out Thankyou Carla for a great night and thanks Damien too it was brilliant as usual |
