Joe Robinson is set to bring his music to the Coast over the New Year – playing the Gold Coast Arts Centre on January 3.
From his significant win at the age of 16 on “Australia’s Got Talent” and more recently hailed as Best New Talent by Guitar Player Magazine USA Reader’s Poll, this young gun has been knocking people out with his guitar skills for almost half his life.
His new album (recorded in Nashville and Detroit) due early 2012 will feature his vocals, songwriting, electric guitar and a full band for the first time.
This new release will be one to look out for in the coming year, in the meantime you can catch Joe with his new line up live as he tours Australia from December 27 – January, 15 2012.
Joe returns home from the States with his two musicians (a young R&B rhythm section from Memphis) and a seductive swag of new songs, which feature – for the first time – his vocal prowess.
Mainly known as a solo virtuoso instrumentalist, Robinson and band will debut these new vocal offerings on tour starting with five [5] shows at Woodford Folk Festival from December 27 – January 1.
They will then tour the Gold Coast, Sydney, Melbourne and regional NSW finishing up with three shows at the Thredbo Blues Festival on January 13, 14 & 15. Tour supports to be announced.
