Shaun Kirk has announced an extensive set of national tour dates to celebrate the release of Two Hands on the Wheel, the second single to be taken from his latest album, Steer the Wheel. The acclaimed singer-songwriter has also confirmed that he will shoot the music video for Two Hands on the Wheel during the upcoming tour, which kicks off this November.
Shaun will be filming snippets from his life on the road, including up-close-and-personal concert performances, sound checks, spontaneous musical collaborations with friends and touring partners, scenic drives along the highways of Australia, as well as behind-the-scenes, fly-on-the-wall footage, and compiling it in the clip for Two Hands on the Wheel.
The single itself has all the hallmarks of a country blues classic, and features contributions from Kyle and Dan Lizotte from Halfway to Forth. The song was featuring during SBS’ coverage of the Tour de France and was performed live on the Good Morning Show during Shaun’s recent tour of New Zealand.
Shaun has spent the past months enjoying the success of Steer the Wheel, which was brought to life thanks to a crowdfunding campaign and a raft of guest musicians who contributed to the recordings. Debuting at number one on the iTunes Blues Charts, Shaun donated a portion of the profits from CD sales to Orphfund, a charity that helps abandoned children around the globe.
