Dainty Consolidated Entertainment is thrilled to confirm that Patrizio Buanne, the world's most exciting baritone crooner, will tour Australia in May 2010. The concert tour will travel to Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth. Inspired by the legendary Italian American singers of the 50's and 60's, like Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra, Patrizio Buanne epitomises style, sophistication and elegance. With his rich baritone voice he is a unique performer in the modern world of entertainment. Patrizio is renowned for his energetic yet intimate live shows, he uniquely combines charisma, sex appeal and raw talent with a natural intuition for performance. This will be Patrizio's 3rd national concert tour of Australia, he last toured in 2007 to sold-out crowds. With over a million album sales already to his credit, Patrizio enters an exciting new stage of his career with the release of his eponymously titled third album. The new collection follows his previous albums 'The Italian' (2005) and 'Forever Begins Tonight' (2007). Produced by Humberto Gatica (Celine Dion, Andrea Bocelli and Michael Bubl?) and recorded at Westlake and Capitol Studios in Los Angeles, the album both pays homage to Patrizio's influences while also offering enthralling original compositions. It highlights contemporary interpretations of classics from the great Italian and American songbooks including 'Mambo Italiano', 'Fly Me To The Moon', 'Have you Ever Really Loved a Woman' and 'Never, Never, Never' alongside new songs such as Diane Warren's 'Why Did You Have To Be?'. Patrizio recorded his debut album 'The Italian' at Abbey Road alongside the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and it proved to be a truly global phenomenon with sales reaching double Platinum in Australia and Platinum in South Africa, New Zealand, Asia, Austria and Finland. In the UK, 'The Italian' was certified double Gold with sales in excess of 200,000 as it hit the Top 10 of the album charts. His second album 'Forever Begins Tonight' continued his success as it crashed into the Top 10 on Billboard's Top World Music Albums chart. Again featuring the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the album was particularly notable for featuring the first and only Italian language interpretation of Robbie Williams' signature song 'Angels'. Patrizio's popularity spread to the live arena as he embarked on several sold-out international tours. Key to his success is his inimitable voice and charmingly charismatic live performances.

One of Australia’s most recognised and respected actors and singers, John Waters will perform a concert that highlights the songs of the great French Chanson singer-songwriter Jacques Brel. While many of Brel’s songs were recorded in English translation in the ‘60s and ‘70s by artists including Frank Sinatra, Neil Diamond, Dusty Springfield, and Ray Charles, Waters will perform them as the original French versions, explaining their significance along the way - sometimes comic, sometimes tragic, sometimes painfully romantic but always engrossing and compelling. Waters has been inspired by Brel’s songbook since he was in his teens, leading him to perform these incredible songs in late night shows in Sydney’s Kings Cross in the early 1970s. This eventually evolved into the critically acclaimed tribute show Cafe Brel in 1999. Now in this brand new incarnation, simply titled BREL, Waters will create and assume the character again, telling stories rich in dimensions that will arouse and entice you into the world and music of Jacques Brel. If you saw Waters’ popular John Lennon tribute Looking through a Glass Onion and loved it, then BREL is sure to cast a spell and get under your skin. “Waters makes the French connection.” Sydney Morning Herald Suitable 16+ years.

Described as the premiere banjo player in the world multi Grammy Award winner Béla Fleck and his renowned ensemble the Flecktones have taken the banjo across the global musical map through collaborations with musical legends as diverse as Chick Corea, Sting, Bobby McFerrin, Bonnie Rait and even the Grateful Dead. Most recently Béla Fleck’s African Project traced origins of the banjo, the prototype of which was brought to American shores by African slaves. In Africa, Fleck found common musical ground with some of Africa’s leading musicians, including international superstar Malian diva Oumou Sangaré. The African Project resulted in Fleck’s most ambitious recording, Throw Down Your Heart and a companion award-winning documentary of the same name. Oumou Sangaré is described as one of Mali’s greatest female voices. She sings about love and the importance of freedom backed up by her trademark funk-driven Wassoulou sound.  Sangaré has toured with Baaba Maal, Femi Kuti and more recently has duetted with stars such as Alicia Keys, Me’Shell Ndégéocello, and Pink Floyd guitarist Dave Gilmour. Béla Fleck will join Oumou Sangare’s 12 piece Malian band on stage for a finger-pickin’ night of African banjo-beats. Winner of 13 Grammys Fleck has been nominated in more categories than anyone in Grammy history. “One of the world’s great female singers...
