In exciting news, it’s just been announced that Grammy-winning Canadian songwriting legend K.D. Lang is heading to our shores for an Aussie tour celebrating the 25th anniversary of her first album proper, Ingénue.
The three-stop tour will see her take on Melbourne and Sydney, but forego Brisbane in favour of Perth, strangely enough. Sorry QLD, but good news for Perth fans a bit sick of missing out when tours roll around.
This album was her first to be made up entirely of original material, and K.D. has since gone on to become one of the world’s most respected songwriters, collaborating with the likes of Elton John and Roy Orbison and picking up her home country’s highest honour, the Order of Canada, along the way.
“I am thrilled K.D. is touring to celebrate this iconic album which was released in 1992,” said Paul Dainty, CEO/President of tour presenters TEG Dainty. “Ingénue is on the list of albums everyone should listen to before they die.
“To see K.D. and her stunning band perform the album in its entirety, along with her other major hits, is going to be a very special evening for Australian fans,” he added.
Tickets go on sale at 10am on Tuesday Feb 28, but Telstra customers can jump in first and grab them at 10am on Tuesday Feb 21 through to Feb 23 – get in quick.
