The recent announcement by the Frontier Touring
Company that the iconic Bryan Adams would be embarking on a national
arena tour left fans across Australia overjoyed. The excitement
doesn’t stop there with today’s news that UK and Europe superstar
Amy Macdonald is confirmed to support in what will be her first ever
Australian performances.
When Macdonald exploded into the musical stratosphere in 2007, the
Scottish singer-songwriter was a breath of fresh air, standing out
from the crowd as a self taught prodigy whose raw lyrics have struck
a chord with audiences everywhere.
Her debut album ‘This Is The Life’ charted at #1 in 5 countries,
with the single of the same name reaching #1 in 10 countries. Her
second offering ‘A Curious Thing’ hit the Top 10 in 10 countries
across Europe and Amy has been awarded 25 platinum and gold discs in
17 countries.
‘Life In A Beautiful Light’, the 25 year-old’s acclaimed third album
(out now through Universal Music) is a soaring declaration of her
growth as an artist, with the new collection of stirring tracks
hitting #2 in the UK.
“Macdonald has an impressive vocal range and sings in such a natural
and unaffected way that it is impossible to avoid being caught in
her spell. On this excellent album, Macdonald demonstrates once
again that she is a skilled purveyor of sparkling roots-pop fit for
the stadium.” – Graham Blackley, Beat Magazine
Current single; the rhythmic, pulsating ‘Slow It Down’ was produced
by long term creative partner and manager, Pete Wilkinson and mixed
by the legendary Bob Clearmountain (Bryan Adams, Rolling Stones,
Robbie Williams).
With a staggering 56 Million views on Youtube and over 4.5 million
albums sold worldwide, Amy Macdonald supporting Bryan Adams for his
2013 Australian arena tour is a match made in “heaven”. This is
definitely one of those times where you want to be one of those
people “who was there”!
