The Darren Middleton Australian Tour 2013 has been announced.
Best known from his previous life as guitarist and songwriter for Powderfinger, Darren Middleton is once again striking out on his own. The much loved Powderfinger played their last ever show in late 2010 and unsurprisingly Middleton spent a bit of the time in a creative and emotional wilderness. For the last 20 years, this band was as much who he was as what he did.
As the dust settled Middleton started working as a producer from his new home in the creative hub that is Melbourne town. This is where the first seeds were planted for his debut solo album Translations, a mix of classic alternative pop music that lives somewhere in the world between The Beatles and Elliot Smith.
Bernard Fanning, Nic Cester, Clare Bowditch, Davey Lane, Pete Murray and Amy Findlay (Stonefield) are just a few of the mates that visited the studio to lend their talents to this very special record. The new album was also realised live for the first time at BIGSOUND to a full house and rave reviews.
Darren Middleton will be touring with members of Something For Kate and Clare Bowditch’s band to form part of his cracking live ensemble. These intimate album launch shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane will be the only headline shows for the remainder of 2013.
