M Ward set to hit Australian shores


BobbySix.com was eagerly positioned in the front row of The Famous Spiegeltent when American folkster M. Ward played a fantastically intimate show in Hyde Park as part of the 2007 Sydney festival, so it is with excitement that we share details of his upcoming tour of Australia.

In case you are not au fait with the man, here's the history lesson: As well as being an esteemed producer, Ward has also been involved in collaborative projects including She & Him with Zooey Deschanel and indie supergroup, Monsters Of Folk with Jim James from My Morning Jacket and Conor Oberst and Mike Mogis from Bright Eyes.

At these February gigs though, the American will perform solo and will be playing a repertoire from across his extensive catalogue. Support will come from Holly Throsby, who will be offering up tracks from her upcoming album, Team.

An evening with Ward and Throsby is sure to be something special. You can find them at the following venues (tickets go on sale tomorrow):

FRIDAY 18th FEBRUARY - PALAIS THEATRE, MELBOURNE
Tickets available from www.lovepolice.com.au/tours / Palais Theatre Box Office or from www.ticketmaster.com.au

SATURDAY 19th FEBRUARY - TIVOLI THEATRE, BRISBANE

SUNDAY 20th FEBRUARY - ENMORE THEATRE, SYDNEY
