Travelling troubadour Passenger (Mike Rosenberg) has announced his Australian return to play a string of dates that will mark the end of his year-long global tour. Fresh from the European festival circuit, Passenger will be performing throughout November, revealing new material to Australian audiences for the first time.

Showcasing a dedication to a grass roots style of craftsmanship with the unique ability to move from the humorous to heartbreaking with every song, Rosenberg has become one of the UK’s most talked about up-and-coming songwriters. His as yet untitled fifth studio album is set for release in early 2012.

Having forged his career on the streets of Australia, Rosenberg returns to his adopted homeland for the first time since his triumphant final show at a sold out Oxford Arts Factory in Sydney, back in May. During the European summer he’s played everywhere from Milan to London, and has added to his impressive roll call of touring partners, sharing the stage with John Butler Trio, Jools Holland, Josh Pyke and new UK phenomenon Ed Sheeran. Advance tickets available via the Passenger fan club for his November tour are already close to selling out.
