Description

Share a night of tales and songs with one of Australia’s most iconic singer songwriters

One of Australia’s favourite artists, John Butler returns to his roots to perform a series of solo concerts throughout thecountry in March and April. Aptly titled “Tin Shed Tales”, the tour takes in capital cities and a host of regional areas;these shows will be a rare opportunity to hear the music of this iconic artist in a raw and intimate setting.

John will be bringing his Tin Shed along for the ride, decked out with a collection of personal art pieces, old skoolskateboards and vintage guitars, these items are laid out in his shed at home where he draws inspiration for his art andsongwriting.

The Tin Shed Tales tour will feature special guests Felicity Groom and Mama Kin, who will open and participate in theshows (see list of shows below).

In December last year John decided to put on a surprise concert for his fans in Perth. The unplugged acoustic showwas announced a day before the performance and with only 300 seats available it sold out in under seven minutes. Heshared many anecdotes with the audience and performed songs from his vast catalogue spanning across all five albums.Thus the “Tin Shed Tales” concept came to life.

Regarding the forthcoming tour John Butler said today,
"I'm really excited about this tour. There is something special about stripping all the bells and whistles off and reallyfeeling the power of less is more."
