Including Robert Oatley Vineyards, Mudgee<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
With a #1 debut for his new album \u2018Departures\u2019, rave reviews, press covers everywhere, plenty of radio love and fans more than thrilled with his new songs, Bernard Fanning is once again at the forefront of Australian music. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
And that being said, it\u2019s the perfect time to announce the much-loved, multi-awarded singer-songwriter has teamed up with the equally much-loved winery event a day on the green<\/span> for a series of concerts nationally in late October\/November. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Fanning is set to bring his acclaimed \u2018Tea & Sympathy\u2019 and \u2018Departures\u2019 albums to the stage on a warm summer\u2019s night against the back-drop of the beautiful vineyards of Mudgee and the Hunter Valley in NSW, Barossa Valley in SA, Yarra Valley in VIC and Mt Cotton in Qld, and the picturesque Kings Park in Perth. How good will this be?\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Special guests on the tour \u2013\u00a0also making their a day on the green<\/span> debut \u2013 will be the iconic Cruel Sea, along with the incredible Sarah Blasko and the charming Bob Evans. The tour will kick off on Saturday October 26 at Robert Oatley Vineyards – the 13th<\/sup>a day on the green<\/span> event in Mudgee. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\u201cI’m really looking forward to these a day on the green<\/span> shows,\u201d Fanning said. \u201cI have been hearing about them for years and am glad to be playing my new songs in such a dignified setting. And I’m looking forward to a couple of vinos with Bob Evans, Sarah Blasko and The Cruel Sea.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Fanning\u2019s\u00a0\u2018Departures\u2019\u00a0album, which debuted at #1 on the ARIA chart last week, is his first since Powderfinger called it a day and is the highly anticipated follow up to his 5 x Platinum solo debut \u2018Tea & Sympathy\u2019.\u00a0 His recording success is paralleled in the live arena, where he has proved again and again why he is one of Australia\u2019s finest and most popular live performers. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
He is delighted to have three top quality Australian acts in The Cruel Sea, Sarah Blasko and Bob Evans joining him for what promises to be a very special a day on the green<\/span>. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
The unstoppable force that is the Cruel Sea – Tex Perkins, James Cruickshank, Dan Rumour, Jim Elliot and Ken Gormley \u2013 has been on a day on the green\u2019s<\/span> hit list for quite a while. Live performances may be sporadic these days, but the band\u2019s collective chemistry and the swagger and power of their unmistakable grooves remains unrivalled.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Sarah\u2019s fourth album \u2018I Awake\u2019\u00a0has re-affirmed her status as one of the country\u2019s most outstanding and most applauded artists……\u2018a defining, unsettling masterpiece\u2019<\/span> (Rolling Stone), \u2018a great Australian talent<\/span>\u2019 (The Australian), \u2018a truly once in a lifetime artist\u2019<\/span> (West Australian) and \u2018captivating<\/span>\u2019 (Herald Sun).\u00a0 After a sojourn in Paris touring and promoting \u2018I Awake\u2019, the ARIA award-winning Best Female Artist returns home in July to co-incide with the release of the haunting new single \u2018All Of Me\u2019. Enchanting and undeniably brilliant, Sarah is set to thrill a day on the green<\/span> audiences. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Bob Evans, the lovable alter-ego of Jebediah frontman Kevin Mitchell, has been charming fans with his quirky solo projects for the past decade. \u00a0His fourth album instalment \u2018Famous Stranger\u2019 was released in March and showcases a progressive pop sound that is downright irresistible. He\u2019s sure to be a crowd pleaser at the upcoming concerts. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
