Paul McDermott To Tour Australia

Paul McDermott, star of Good News Week, is bringing his first ever solo shows to Brisbane, Newcastle and Canberra as part of a spring offensive (other capital city shows to be announced over summer).

Paul Sings features a selection of McDermott’s original songs, from musical comedy trios DAAS and GUD through to those penned for TV shows Good News Week, many of which were performed just once, only to be aired and forgotten … until now.

Naughty, satirical, nihilistic and beautifully dark, with the occasional love song, Paul Sings will be peppered with seriously funny stories about what art and life have wrought this artist, writer and comedian, including more than a few glimpses of sunshine.

Prepare for a swoonful of Paul McDermott melodies interspersed with anecdotes from the seamy underside of showbiz, as the acid-tongued, velvet tonsilled, modern day song and dance man takes to the stage.

Tickets for all shows go on sale at 9am, Wednesday 1 August, 2012
