Australia’s future-soul beacon Ngaiire announces her Summer Tour dates just days after performing in front of over 100,000 people in support of Alicia Keys and John Legend, and following a headline appearance at Tropfest.
With her second show supporting Keys and Legend just days away, and recent show with Cody ChestnuTT already feeling a million miles behind us [it was October] it's safe to say it's been an incredible year for the larger than life Sydney-via-PNG artist, who only debuted her first record Lamentations not 6 months ago.Finishing 2013 in The 2013 Coopers Amp Top 25 'Highly Regarded' List Lamentations was also celebrated by FasterLouder romping into #27 in the website's Top 50 Albums of 2013, hitting #25 in their Reader's Poll: Top 50 Albums of 2013 and also popping up as Sarah Howell's #4 Release Of 2013 on triple j's Roots N'All.
In the first three weeks of release [and in some cases, before] Ngaiire's Lamentations had been
announced as feature album on Sydney's Eastside Radio and 2SER FM, South Australia's Radio
Adelaide, Melbourne's 3RRR, PBS and SYN, DIG Australia, 2 BOB Radio and Radio Goolgarri, as
well as landing feature album prominence on AIR, and garnering on-air support from triple j. After two
much-talked-about single tours [for 'Dirty Hercules' and 'Around' respectively] the album tour
introduced keen audiences to the wild, and deeply moving, live performance aspect of Ngaiire -
culminating in an invitation to showcase at The Australasian World Music Expo in November, and to
join John Legend in support of superstar Alicia Keys on two key dates as part of Keys' Set The World
On Fire Tour.
For Keys' it might be a tour name, for Ngaiire 'Set The World On Fire' seems more and more like it
might be a prophecy. Find below praise for Ngaiire's exquisite debut album along with details for
where you can see her next.
