the Arts Centre and Spiegeltent International present
The Arts Centre Forecourt, 100 St Kilda Rd, Melbourne Dan Kelly & The UkeladiesWed 29 Oct at 7pm Tickets $30 On a small island off Western Samoa, (Sa ‘Sacred’ and Moa “chicken’ in the local parlance)…….a lone ukulele chimes under the cries of starving seagulls, beyond the crash of surf on the bleached reef, factory ships scour the ocean floors. Meanwhile on the beach three voices croon in sweet harmony, an island chorus, “As the sun sets, sing along, a simple tunes for cultures burned and gone….” It is the ghost of Elvis, with two young Hollywood starlets? Is it Enrique Iglesias holidaying with two soulful Russian tennis players? No! Its Dan Kelly and The Ukeladies!!!!!! With the planet in peril, Dan Kelly has taken time off recording his third album to team up with Melbourne’s premier faux Hawaiian duo, The Ukeladies, to release The S.U.V Song, which is available as a free download from www.dankelly.com.au From October 11th. The S.U.V Song floats onto the airwaves this month, featuring possibly the world’s first ever mobile phone feedback solo, performed by the Ukeladies in true tropical Armageddon style. This ground breaking tele-communictaion experiment combined with their dreamy vocals and Dan’s crooning falsetto make for a match made in tropical heaven. The summer winds will blow Dan Kelly and The Ukeladies around the country for a string of headline shows and a number of shows supporting Augie March, through October and November, see below for details. www.dankelly.com.au
The Spiegeltent Melbourne concert program will be available October 2008.
