It’s hard to believe that within a week I’ll be heading to the land Down Under for a month long tour! Many, many thanks go to my Aussie tour manager Gary Luck for hooking me up with so many fantastic shows — I’m especially excited about my very first gig in Sydney, which will be performing at the Australian Music Awards Gala Evening & Annual Awards Night as an international guest artist. The show will be televised and I’ll be interviewed by the mainstream press onstage — woo hoo!

After that very high-brow kickoff to the tour, I’ll be performing at all sorts of venues, from rock clubs to house concerts to radio station-sponsored fairs to a bookshop. So if you have friends in Australia please forward this email to them and encourage them to come meet me at a show!
