Daniel Lee Kendall & Georgia Fair announce Marianne, Hold Me Now Tour

Not so many weeks ago Daniel Lee Kendall teamed up with close friends and now stalwart touring mates Georgia Fair for a brief but magical stint of live shows. Having melted many hearts on their initial run, this inspiring combination expands to bring the special double‐headline show to wider audiences. The Marianne, Hold Me Now Tour reaches intimate venues in Wollongong, Sydney, Cronulla, Newcastle, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Canberra and Melbourne during June and July.

Georgia Fair’s Jordan Wilson and Ben Riley have been playing music since they were teenagers on Sydney’s North Shore, banging out Nirvana covers. Soon they both found themselves leaning towards acoustic guitars and embracing the singer/songwriter tradition. The pair have grown together in friendship and music, so they were certainly ready to step up when it came time to fly to North Carolina and meet up with producer, Bill Reynolds, (of the highly respected Band Of Horses) for the recording of Georgia Fair’s upcoming debut album.

From the duo’s second EP 'Times Fly' is the tour’s title track, "Marianne", an elegant and striking song which was recorded in a home studio with help of old friends Boy & Bear and Lisa Mitchell.

Daniel Lee Kendall is an extraordinary singer‐songwriter who has busied himself this past 12 months, unveiling his first two releases and building a dedicated live following. Hailing from the NSW Central Coast, the triple j Unearthed winner garnered both critical and fan attention in 2010 with his stunning debut EP and its eponymous single 'Lost in the Moment'. Now, Daniel has released his sophomore EP 'Talk The Night Away' complete with bright and heart‐warming single "Hold Me Now".

Daniel Lee Kendall’s live pursuits in this past year have included appearances at the Coaster, Peat’s Ridge and Playground Weekender Festivals. February 2011 saw Daniel embark on his very first national tour, with Passenger and Old Man River.
