Cat Power Announces 2013 Australia And New Zealand Tour
Following the release of her ninth album ‘Sun’ earlier this year, Chan Marshall aka Cat Power will be returning to Australia and New Zealand in February and March 2013. Keyboardist Gregg Foreman is the only member of her previous backing band Dirty Delta Blues who will be joining her on this latest tour. After lengthy auditions the other spots in the touring band will be filled by female musicians.
‘Sun’ was written, played and produced by Cat Power. NPR described it as ‘Her most joyful, sonically adventurous album to date, the best record she’s ever made.’ Tickets for her tour next year are sure to be in demand following her 2010 sold out national tour and the success of her latest album. Tickets go on sale Friday 16th November.
