Bryan Adams - The Bare Bones Tour



Bryan Adams - The Bare Bones Tour
17 Sep 2011 - SOLD OUT!
18 Sep 2011 - NOW ANNOUNCED! On sale 29 Jun, 11:00am!

The Frontier Touring Company is thrilled to announce that due to an overwhelming demand second shows have been added in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane for Bryan Adams’ September 2011 Australian tour.

‘The Bare Bones Tour’ is shaping up to be an iconic event that fans will not want to miss.

This is a chance to see Bryan Adams in an intimate environment as he performs stripped back renditions of hits such as ‘Cuts Like A Knife’, ‘Heaven’ and ‘Summer of ‘69’.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see a truly accomplished and classic artist at a series of shows that are sure to go down in history.

With a career spanning more than three decades, Bryan is no stranger to the world’s finest arenas and stadiums. His first ever tour of Australia back in 1984 saw him launch his touring career here at sold out stadium shows in support of The Police. From there his star shot into the stratosphere, selling out arenas with ease for every subsequent tour of our shores.

Fast forward to 2011, where Australia will be treated to their most intimate ever shows with Bryan as he takes to theatres across the country for his critically acclaimed ‘Bare Bones’ tour.

Of the shows, Bryan told The Weekender (USA);

“I’m getting back to the basics of the songs, just me and my voice. That’s how they all started…”
The solo performances, which have taken place intermittently throughout his world tours since 2008, have had audiences in awe with their popularity inspiring his latest album Bare Bones. The disc, recorded in 2010 during his Bare Bones Tour, captures sparsely arranged hits by Adams featuring only his distinctive voice and guitar, accompanied by keyboardist Gary Breit.

Bare Bones features stripped back renditions of his hits including ‘Cuts Like A Knife’, ‘Heaven’, ‘Summer of ‘69’ and many more, lending a newfound appreciation and perspective to what many consider some of the most beloved songs in pop/rock music (out now through Universal).

Fans generally accustomed to seeing Bryan Adams in much larger venues will relish the opportunity to see him in theatres for a series of very special performances.

‘…Adams had the audience on its feet. His rapport with the crowd was easy, relaxed. It felt as if he was jamming for guests in his home.’ Dallas Morning News
‘Whether it was the stunning acoustics of the Weidner or the remarkable strength of Adams’ vocals – or perhaps a perfect storm of both – it was two hours of the most amazing sound and unspoiled vocals in recent memory.’Greenbay Press Gazette
‘[The format] allowed Adams to not only flaunt his cheeky personality, but to showcase the music in its purest form and recount the stories behind his impressive career catalog of songs that have made him one of the most successful solo artists of the past three decades.’BostonMusicSpotlight.com
‘People frothed hard, even critics…To hear them describe it, it was more like a cozy singalong in the back of a bar than a concert with a merch table out front.’NBCNewYork.com
The multi-award winning musician and respected philanthropist is undoubtedly one of the world’s best selling artists, having sold in surplus of 65 million albums across the globe and reaching the top of the charts in over 40 countries.

His outstanding live shows and robust catalogue of hits ensure that any live Bryan Adams concert is a treat and these theatre shows are sure to be an extra special experience. An artist of Bryan’s esteemed calibre is rarely showcased in this intimate format; this is a wonderful opportunity not to be missed.

CHRIS SEBASTIAN F.LO.W “Gonna take you on a journey …”


“I’m so excited, what tonight may bring …”

It’s a song that says it all. The music and lyric is a celebration of music and having fun. One listen and you’ll be hooked.

Welcome to Chris Sebastian’s debut single, F.L.O.W.

You won’t hear a catchier song in 2011.

“I can feel the music is calling, this is the moment …”

Chris was 13 when he realised that music was what he wanted to do with his life. Mucking around with the Cool Edit program, he recorded himself singing along to a Babyface track. “It was kind of karaoke,” he recalls, “but when I heard my voice, I thought, ‘This is it, music is what I’m going to do.’”

Soon after, Chris started writing songs. He does everything by ear. He’s never had a singing lesson or been taught to play the piano or guitar. “If you love something enough, you’re just going to do it,” he explains.

Chris’s first gig was singing the national anthem at an AFL match in front of 45,000 people in his hometown of Adelaide.

After his brother Guy won the first Australian Idol, the producers approached Chris, wanting him to be on the show. But he decided to follow his own path, forging his own way in the music world. “A lot of people think it’s been easy with my last name,” Chris says, “but it hasn’t been. I need to prove myself as an artist. And, of course, I have a lot to live up to, though our music is very different.”

“I’ll take you to a place you’ve never been …”

Inspired by artists such as Brian McKnight, Ne-Yo and Michael Jackson, Chris ignored the naysayers who told him that Australian R&B would never work. He’s stayed true to his family’s advice: “Do what you love.”

Chris wrote F.L.O.W – the first single from his upcoming debut album – with producer Jhay C and Alex Shukin. Was recording the song as much fun as it sounds? “Absolutely,” Chris smiles. “We got on a roll and did it all in one night, finishing at 4.30am.”

Chris hooked up with Jhay C when the producer was recommended to him by Brooke Addamo (Owl Eyes). The combination clicked. “I just knew we had great chemistry,” Chris says.

“I honestly believe Chris is at the forefront of what urban is Down Under,” Jhay C adds. “We’re determined to push boundaries and bring the Australian urban scene to a new level.”

Gonna take you on a journey …

It promises to be quite a trip. Resistance is useless. Go with the F.L.O.W!

“It’s all about letting go.”

BELIEVE THE RUMOURS – STEVIE NICKS CONFIRMED TO TOUR AUSTRALIA IN 2011




MEDIA RELEASE    Sunday 26th June

McManus Entertainment is thrilled to announce the return to Australia of the legendary Stevie Nicks, who will be touring throughout Australia in November and December this year. Tickets go on sale on Wednesday 6th July.

Stevie's “In Your Dreams” tour will hit Australia in November. She will play shows in Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Sydney, Newcastle, Brisbane, Wollongong and Canberra. Joining Stevie for these special shows will be celebrated musician and songwriter Dave Stewart from Eurythmics, who co-produced Stevie's new solo album, In Your Dreams.  Fans of both Fleetwood Mac and Eurythmics will be thrilled to know that Stevie Nicks and Dave Stewart will be performing their greatest hits from their respective bands as well as highlights from their solo careers.

“I’m so excited to bring Stevie back to Australia and give her the opportunity to play to her many fans across the country,” said promoter Andrew McManus. “Stevie has one of the most unique and recognisable voices in the history of popular music and is also one of the greatest songwriters of all time. And I think there will be a whole new generation of fans due to the recent episode of ‘Glee’ based on the legendary Fleetwood Mac album, Rumours.”

Apart from Stevie’s incredible work with Fleetwood Mac, she has also had an extensive solo career, collectively having more than 40 Top 50 hits and selling more than 140 million albums worldwide. Just a few of her many solo hits include Edge of Seventeen, Leather and Lace, Stand Back, Bella Donna, Rooms On Fire and Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around. Stevie will also be playing songs from Fleetwood Mac’s extensive back catalogue. Some of their most loved songs include Rhiannon, Gypsy, Sara, Landslide, Dreams and Seven Wonders. 

Stevie recently celebrated her 63rd birthday at a once-in-a-lifetime special event in Los Angeles. Here Stevie also celebrated the release of her first solo album in more than a decade, In Your Dreams, which was the week's highest-charting new album when it was released in Australia. The first single from the album, Secret Love, was originally written for the Rumours album.

The critics have raved about In Your Dreams, which is Stevie's seventh solo album. "The gypsy queen is in royal form on In Your Dreams," said Rolling Stone. "It's not just her first album in 10 years, it's her finest collection of songs since the ‘80s."

Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 Grammy Award winning Album of the Year, Rumours, stands as one of the greatest albums ever made. It has sold more than one million copies in Australia. The songs have stood the test of time and Rumours recently had a revival when it was introduced to a whole new generation of fans, thanks to a recent episode of Glee dedicated to this classic album. Following the episode, Rumours returned to the Australian charts at number two.

Joining Stevie on her Australian tour is Grammy and BRIT Award winning musician, songwriter and producer, Dave Stewart. Dave is best known for his work with Eurythmics and recently co-produced and co-wrote many of the songs on Stevie’s latest album, In Your Dreams. The album closes with the Stevie and Dave duet, Cheaper Than Free. And Stevie sings a track with Dave on his new solo album, The Blackbird Diaries (to be released on 26th August). His music career spans three decades and more than 100 million album sales. Some of Dave’s biggest hits include I Only Want To Be With You (The Tourists) and Eurythmics hits Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This), Missionary Man, Sisters Are Doin’ It For Themselves, Would I Lie To You? and Thorn In My Side.

Proudly presented by MAX, Woman’s Day, Classic Hits, Mix 102.3, KOFM, Wave FM, Mix 106.5 and Mix 94.5

Their co-star Bill Daily (Major Roger Healy), who Eden describes as "adorable" also joined them for the pop culture festival in Sydney and Perth.

"I'm looking forward to it," Eden says.
"It's been a long time since I've been to Sydney and Perth."

Mia Wasikowska attends Sydney premiere of her new movie, “Jane Eyre”


Mia Wasikowska attended the Sydney premiere of her new movie, “Jane Eyre” tonight at the State Theatre.

The actress has worn a white sequin dress on the red carpet recently and that trend continued when she recently wore a Elie Saab Spring 2011 Couture dress in Los Angeles.

If you look hard enough this dress appears to be a shorter modified version of a white a-line cocktail dress with floral appliqués and sequin embellishment was paired with black Brian Atwood ‘Wagner’ peep-toes.

Mia never tends to do much with her hair, but I guess the fact that she was wearing Couture convinced her that it was time to do something different.

It’s a simple down hairstyle, but it works perfectly with her as does her natural hair and make-up.

AbbaWorld At The Powerhouse Museum, Sydney, by Eva Rinaldi


ABBAWORLD, the Official Interactive Exhibition approved and supported by legendary ABBA, is currently showing at Sydney's Powerhouse Museum, a stones throw from Darling Harbour.

The expo is an amazing multimedia exhibition that enables visitors to experience the music and magic of ABBA in a completely fresh fashion. 

ABBAWORLD made its star-studded, world debut abroad in London on 26 January 2010 to rave reviews from fans and news media.

It's a wonderful mix of traditional and rare ABBA memorabilia and state-of-the-art technology. The highly interactive experience take visitors on a journey through 25 environments, showcasing rare footage, sets, stage costumes, images and memorabilia which has never been seen in Australia before. Some of the gems are actually from the personal collections of Agnetha, Benny, Björn and Frida.

ABBAWORLD captures the music, memories and magic that made the Swedish group a worldwide phenomenon. It explores where the four members of the group came from, the formation and success of ABBA and the post ABBA years. It features ABBA’s first major international live performance and Sweden’s first win at the Eurovision Song contest in 1974, their highly acclaimed concert tours including the Australian tour in 1977, and the impact of their music that has inspired several hit movies and a stage show - Muriel’s Wedding, Priscilla Queen of the Desert and Mamma Mia.

On display are more than 20 original costumes, the epitome of 70’s glam, live concert footage, promotional and behind-the-scenes photographs, album artworks and other ABBA memorabilia, as well as exclusive interviews with members Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, Anni-Frid Lyngstad and Agnetha Fältskog.

The ABBA concert dressing room, the writing studio on Viggsö – an island in the Stockholm archipelago where many of ABBA’s songs were written, and ABBA’s recording studio Polar Studio in Stockholm where the group recorded its last two albums, are also recreated in the exhibition.

Visitors can relive ABBA’s music and sing and dance their way through the exhibition using a series of interactives including perform on a stage with ABBA, dance in an ABBA video, record a sing-a-long with ABBA, or be photographed on an ABBA album cover.

For more than 35 years, ABBA has maintained international success with their songs that remain a fixture on radio playlists today. ABBA is one of the top three selling artists in the world, having sold 375 million records worldwide. They still sell over 3 million records a year.

Band member Björn Ulvaeus said: "It always seemed to me that people in the music press and also in the music industry sort of took it for granted that ABBA would be a one hit wonder. Why would we be different from any other Eurovision winner?

"We really had an up-hill struggle after Waterloo and our follow-up singles didn’t do well. Then the Australians came to our rescue. They released SOS and Mamma Mia and both songs made the charts in a big way down under. Suddenly everyone else around the world realized there was life in the band that was supposed to be dead. I’m forever grateful to the Australians for that!"

Jonathan Parsons, Sydney Curator, ABBAWORLD said: "ABBA’s appeal was first and foremost because they were consummate pop artists producing some of the most well-crafted, memorable and enduring pop songs in pop history. They were pioneers in the pop form breaking new ground in recording, concert production and promotional music videos. For Australia this culminated in the extraordinary scenes of adoration for the group that traveled across the globe to perform in Australia in 1977. Their music spoke to the heart, through joy and pain, and left a musical legacy that is still vibrant today."

AbbaWorld will conclude in Sydney on the 26th June, so be quick. The expo truly has to be one of the better value for money entertainment experiences in Sydney.

I’m Not Dead Yet Australian Premiere, by Eva Rinaldi - 14th June 2011





I'm Not Dead Yet is a Screen Australia presentation of an iKandy Films production. Produced by Janine Hosking, Stephen Hopes. Directed, written, edited by Janine Hosking.

With: Chad Morgan, Joanie Morgan, Tex Perkins, Trevor Day, Dave Dawson, Greedy Smith, Reg Mombassa, John Williamson, Harry Tompsett, Tayzin Fahey-Leigh, Alexandra Rice, Amy Nixon.

I'm Not Dead Yet premiered tonight at George Street, Sydney Event Cinemas, with Perkins arriving in a limo, followed minutes later by Morgan, in a bigger limo and bright pink suit, with dozens of media snapping away and firing off questions left, right and centre.

Chad Morgan has lost count of the number of times he's been reported dead (hence the title), but the politically-incorrect country singer with the donkey grin is very much alive. 'The Sheik of Scrubby Creek' is still on the road almost 60 years after kicking off his career on Australia's Amateur Hour. Chad's life is the stuff of legends - his rapid rise to the top, womanising, heavy drinking - and his story, narrated by Tex Perkins, is told with just the right mix of rollicking style and genuine respect.

It's certainly an affectionate portrait of Australian muso Chad Morgan, long overdue documentary "I'm Not Dead Yet" suits a niche audience, but his fan base will sing along with him all night and day. He sings his basic like ballads on tour and the vet country singer carries himself with charm that has allowed him to be one of the biggest survivors in the biz. We've learned that that the Australian Broadcasting Commission will also screen the doco on their TV channel later this year.

It's quite the biographical portrait and road movie. The singer/guitarist rose to fame when he wowed a radio talent show with his comedic genius back in 1952. Today he shares the travels with his "roadie" wife, Joanie, and his trusty, traveling from town to town - pub to club.

Indie rocker Tex Perkins is willingly dragged into the doco as an inquisitive counterpoint to Morgan, and does a fine job as narrator.

Young performing artist Harry Tompsett does a fine job portraying Morgan as a youngster, and the false teeth visual jokes are classic.

Be on the lookout for the exploring the "mystery" of an attractive woman who inspired his signature song "The Sheik of Shabby Creek."

If you love good yarn, music docos or a bit of a Australian cultural history buff, you're going to love this.
