After erupting back onto the scene with bold soul-rock shot ‘Under Your Skin’ — his first release in over four years, which was promptly added to high rotation on triple j — Dan Sultan and his band are thrilled to announce a capital city tour for February and March 2014.
Dan’s upcoming tour will give fans an opportunity to hear both new songs and old favourites, accompanied by his dynamic band. The Melbourne artist has also been announced as special guest for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band’s Melbourne and Hunter Valley shows next February, alongside reformed Australian rock’n’roll favourites Hunters & Collectors and Sydney band The Rubens.
‘Under Your Skin’ is a definite indication of the grand statement that awaits us, with the coming of Dan Sultan’s fourth studio album. With another single due out before the LP’s early April release, fans will get a chance to hear yet another example of the explosive rock melodies and snarling, sultry vocals which made the young songwriter a household name. Recorded in Nashville’s legendary Blackbird Studio, Dan’s performance on the album accurately reflects his many awards and accolades, including the 2007 Deadly Award for Single Release of the Year, 2010 AIR Award for Best Independent Artist, and 2010 ARIA for Best Male Artist.
The Medics will join Dan on his capital city tour. The Medics’ story started in Cairns, far north Queensland and has seen their emergence as one of Australia’s most genuinely exciting new bands performing at Splendour in the Grass, Big Day Out, Laneway Festival, Groovin’ the Moo, Woodford and The Dreaming Festivals. The Medics took out top honours at the 2012 National Indigenous Music Awards with wins for Album of the Year for their stunning debut LP ‘Foundations’ and Song of the Year for ‘Griffin’, and were crowned Best New Talent at the 2013 Rolling Stone Awards. They are currently working on the follow up to ‘Foundations’ and are itching to get the new songs out there in 2014.
