Hurray! Paul Kelly is currently #1 on the Australian albums chart, which is proof that — as his new album title suggests — life is, indeed, fine.
To showcase this fact further (and also some of his new tunes), he has this morning announced a run of national dates for this November, with a bunch of special guests: Busby Marou, Middle Kids, Sahara Beck, and the legendary Steve Earle, who will be touring his 17th studio album, So You Wanna Be An Outlaw.
Tickets go on sale for all dates next Monday, at noon. Check out the tour dates below his new record.
