Sarah Blasko / Fred Kinbom & gwesteion arbennig / special guests
Over 18 only - In modern pop, Sarah Blasko is a rare beast. On the one hand, she is a fiercely-independent free spirit whose haunting music critics have run out of superlatives to describe. On the other, the 33 year old Australian is a multi-platinum selling star whose mantelpiece houses an ever increasing array of awards and who performed at the closing ceremony of Sydney’s Commonwealth Games. An early EP release was followed by 2004’s platinum-selling, debut album, ‘The Overture & the Underscore’ and 2007’s nautically-themed, ARIA Award-winning successor, ‘What The Sea Wants, The Sea Will Have’. Recently voted Album Of The Year by Triple J, Australia’s biggest national radio network, and nominated for a mighty five ARIAs (Blasko picked up Best Female), ‘As Day Follows Night’ is already Blasko’s biggest seller. Written over several months in 2007 while she was simultaneously composing the score for the Bell Shakespeare Company’s production of Hamlet – in which she also performed – it is her most lyrically direct, musically simple and emotionally affecting album to date.
