Kenny Rogers and Glen Campbell

ONE PERTH SHOW ONLY

Riverside Theatre, Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre

Tuesday 21 August 2012

2 Superstars, 12 Grammies, Over 50 HIts and 1 Incredible Night

Mellen Events and Bluehawk Presents are thrilled to announce that 9 time Grammy legend, Glen Campbell, is joining Kenny Rogers in Perth as the Very Special Guest at the Riverside Theatre, for one spectacular hit filled night, on Tuesday 21 August.

Glen will be in Australia on The Goodbye Tour and his only solo show is in Brisbane.

Both Country Superstars are contemporary music icons with accolades in abundance including over 50 Top Ten hits between them, 12 GRAMMY Awards and individual catalogues packed with indelible classic songs:

The Gambler, Coward of the County, Reuben James, Lucille, Ruby Don’t Take Your Love to Town, Lady, She Believes in Me, Islands in the Stream, We’ve Got Tonight, You Decorated My Life, Buy Me A Rose and Wichita Lineman, Gentle On My Mind, By The Time I Get To Phoenix, Rhinestone Cowboy, Galveston, Southern Nights, Country Boy (You’ve Got Your Feet In L.A.), Dreams Of The Everyday Housewife, Still Within The Sound Of My Voice and so much more.

KENNY ROGERS

A ground breaking recording artist, distinctive vocalist and consummate entertainer, Kenny Rogers has enjoyed great success during his storied career of nearly five and a half decades.

He has endeared music lovers around the globe with his amazing songs, heartfelt performances and rare storytelling ability while receiving countless awards for his music and charity work, including 3 GRAMMY Awards, 18 American Music Awards, 11 People’s Choice Awards, 8 Academy of Country Music Awards and 5 Country Music Association Awards. He has also received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Entertainment Buyers Association, is a recipient of the Cliffie Stone Pioneer Award from the Academy of Country Music, and was honoured with the prestigious Horatio Alger Award in 1990 as one who had distinguished themselves despite humble beginnings.

Against all odds, Kenny has charted a record in each of the last 7 decades (50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, 2000’s, 2010’s). He has recorded 24 No. 1 songs and 12 No. 1 albums, including his Greatest Hits album, which has sold over 24 million copies worldwide.  Kenny is featured in the Top Ten list of Best Selling Male Artists of All Time, with 1 Diamond, 19 Platinum and 31 Gold albums and has worldwide album sales of more than 120 million. The first country artist to consistently sell out arenas, he has played to millions of fans around the world.

His smash hit, The Gambler, spawned five movies (starring Kenny in the title role as Brady Hawkes) to become the longest-running mini-series in the history of American television.  Rogers has published 4 books and 3 photographic collections featuring 5 Presidents, celebrities and landscapes.

His latest album, The Love Of God, which became his 21st Top 10 Country album, was a spiritual awakening for the legendary singer who first sang Amazing Grace in the church choir. 12 inspirational songs feature Kenny’s serene vocals accompanied by special guests on new arrangements with sweeping strings and soaring harmonies.  Never one to rest on his laurels, Rogers recently completed his autobiography (scheduled for a Fall release) and will begin recording a new album the Summer of this year.

GLEN CAMPBELL

Glen was one of the most visible international Country stars when he hosted his own network television show for 3 years.  The Goodtime Hour featured many of the top musical guests of the time including Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Neil Diamond.   It attracted weekly global audiences of 50 million.

He has 9 Grammy Awards including this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award and won 4 in 1967 alone – the first artist to win the Country and Pop categories in the same year – for Gentle on My Mind and By The Time I Get To Phoenix, which along with the Most Played Song of the Millenium, Wichita Lineman, was enshrined in the Grammy Hall of Fame.  Rhinestone Cowboy is an Academy of Country Music Song of the Year.

Glen was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2005.  He has received Country Music Association Entertainer & Male Vocalist of the Year awards, multiple Academy of Country Music trophies including the prestigious Pioneer Award and a Gospel Music Association Dove Award.

He starred alongside John Wayne in the classic film True Grit, published Rhinestone Cowboy: An Autobiography and was named one of CMT’s 40 Greatest Men in Country Music History.

As a young session guitarist in the 60’s with the elite Los Angeles Wrecking Crew, Glen contributed to the hits of Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Merle Haggard, Nat King Cole, Ricky Nelson, The Righteous Brothers & The Beach Boys.  When Brian Wilson famously chose to stop touring, Glen served as his replacement on the road.

Glen’s final album, Ghost on the Canvas, is a soundtrack to his colourful 76 years and was released to critical acclaim.   It features a celebratory jam with the guitar virtuoso and friends.

A public disclosure was made last year that Glen was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease and so far, this has not affected his performances.

You won’t want to miss one sensational moment with The Gambler Kenny Rogers and Very Special Guest, the Rhinestone Cowboy Glen Campbell on his Goodbye Tour, at the Riverside Theatre Perth Convention & Exhibition Centre on Tuesday 21 August.

You can bet this concert will be an amazing event!

A CELEBRATION OF CLASSIC OZ ROCK!

NOISEWORKS, DARYL BRAITHWAITE, RICHARD CLAPTON, 1927 & CHOIRBOYS!

 SELLS OUT

This summer marks the 11^th year of a day/evening on the green concerts.  After close to 300 shows and more than two million happy patrons, the a day/evening on the green experience of good food, good wine and great music is firmly established as one of Australia’s most popular events.

Promoters Roundhouse Entertainment and Mellen Events are delighted to announce that the final concert in this summer’s an evening on the green series in Kings Park & Botanic Garden on March 31 has sold out.

Noiseworks, Daryl Braithwaite, Richard Clapton, 1927 and Choirboys will perform in a five hour musical feast; a celebration of the Australian rock music history they have so vibrantly helped define.

Kings Park & Botanic Garden will enjoy one giant sing-a-long of home-grown hits with a sell out crowd on March 31!

There’s a reason Erykah Badu has been labelled the Queen of Soul. It’s in every move she makes as she confidently controls her stage. It’s there every time she opens her mouth, whether she is merely addressing her audience or melting even the hardest hearts with her sweet yet powerful vocals. Yes, Erykah Badu is the true definition of a Queen.

After keeping the audience waiting for an hour, she finally sauntered on stage to affect a delicious insouciance, peering through a pair of school-marm spectacles as if to say: “Who are you applauding — what, me?” She might have come across tough and a little intimidating, but the wry smile she is trying her hardest to suppress keeps giving her away.

With her short hair knotted into twin buns, Badu projects an eccentric brand of cool. Her look — hip-hop gold chains over a black top and multicoloured Picasso pants — seems androgynous until she swivels to reveal a plunging, back-exposing effect at the rear. These occasional glimpses of flesh carry an undeniably erotic charge, but in a delectably artful rather than crass MTV style — an effect heightened by her feline slinkiness.

Backing her was a well-schooled four-piece (drums, keyboards, bass and DJ) plus four back-up singers who proved equally adept at dirty funk in the spirit of 1970s acts such as Funkadelic and the Ohio Players to stripped-back soul with a minimalist aesthetic (Badu’s use of an electronic percussion pad reinforcing the influence of hip-hop’s 80s heyday).

Appletree copped a surprise re-working. Starting with a solo from Badu on her drum machine before giving the lyrics a jazzy ‘scat-style’ remix, it’s enough to spark a bums-off-seats rebellion that will last the rest of the night. The set flawlessly bounces on as the Opera House is treated to a beautifully soulful version of Love of My Life, a joint that usually features Chi-town emcee Common. Before the end of the set proper, stomping renditions of I Want You and Danger will also be added to the nights highlight reel. At the conclusion of Danger, Erykah waves a short goodbye and leaves the stage for the first time.

Erykah’s stage manager informs the crowd that if we want to see her again she is going to have to hear us. “Badu…Badu…Badu” is the response from the crowd, and a short moment later she is back centre stage. She instructs the audience to help her out with the “Yes-sir-ee” parts of the next song, before making Soldier, the first cab off the encore rank. She interrupts the track mid-way through to make a political statement, granting solid insight into the frame of mind she was in when writing Soldier and the album it belongs to.

The farewell track for the night is Bag Lady, performed while the lady of the night graciously jumps down to greet the first few rows of the audience. Erykah Badu truly tore the roof off the Opera House tonight.

With the countdown on for the kick-off of Future Music Festival 2012, inthemix has pulled together what’s undoubtedly our biggest prize ever. At five stops around the country, the world-conquering Swedish House Mafia will be closing the mainstage in front of mammoth crowds – but that’s not all they’re doing in Australia.

Future Music Festival and inthemix have joined forces to bring one of the world’s biggest dance acts together in one place: your place.

Think of the wildest house party you’ve hosted, then amp it up to 11! Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso and Axwell could be strolling through your front door to play an exclusive set for you and 30 of your closest (and luckiest) mates. The Swedes will provide the soundtrack, we’ll provide the set-up and all you to do is get the next day off work. You’ll have bragging rights for life. Is it any wonder we’re calling this the most covetable prize in inthemix history?

The Swedish House Party house party can happen at any house or unit in Australia (you’ll just have to inform your neighbours first, obviously). Tell your mates to enter to increase your chance of scoring an invite to the biggest prize in ITM’s history.

24 year old DJ Skrillex is one amazingly talented electronic music producer, having won 3 Grammys and being nominated for many more, he has helped put the dubstep genre on the map by slowly venturing into the mainstream music scene.

The 3 grammys won at the pre-telecast ceremony include Best Remixed Recording (Non-Classical) for the song “Cinema (Skrillex Remix)”, Best Dance/Electronica Album for “Scary Monsters & Nice Sprites” and Best Dance Recording for the title track.  Skrillex was also nominated for Best New Artist and Best Short Form Video but lost out to Bon Iver & Adele.

The former From First to Last member accepted his awards claiming that he had made the song Cinema (Skrillex Remix) in his bedroom when he was living illegally in a warehouse in downtown LA.

Needless to say the producer isnt homeless anymore with reports he earns up to $100,000 per night to spin at nightclubs. He now ranks above successful headliners such as David Guetta and Deadmau5 and with Skrillex performing at Future Music Festival 2012,  get excited because this year is going to be bigger and better than ever this year!

As if Jessie J’s bombastic live show wasn’t awesome enough, Future Entertainment and Mellen Events are excited to announce today that UK underground Hip Hop phenomenon, Professor Green (pictured), has accepted the mic as support for Jessie J’s first ever Australian headline tour!

His acclaimed follow up is At Your Inconvenience.

As a DJ Ruby Rose plays at the hottest clubs, parties and festivals around the world. She’s taken her signature mixes to renowned LA Club XIV, put it on wax with a compilation album with Grant Smillie that debuted at number ten on the ARIA charts.

“E-neff” said!

The Empty Cup have been announced as the supporting act for Sade – an Evening on the Green on Tuesday December 6.

The Empty Cup is a producer and emcee headed by vocalist Brian Kruger. Having performed with The Typhoons, supporting acts such as Lyrics Born and The Streets, and at festivals such as Parklife and Good Vibrations, he is a veteran of the Perth scene.

2010 brought the emergence of The Empty Cup as a solo entity, and over the past year, Brian has hosted the popular co-lab jam band night and other freestyle hip-hop events and collaborated with established artists from all ends of the local music spectrum.

The four piece produces a raw live feel of new-wave hip-hop while simultaneously drawing colour from classical, soul and rock influences. The Empty Cup’s Brian Kruger is an aficionado of free-form freestyling. This, set to a backdrop of vocal harmonies paired with a diversely influenced and genuinely expressive rhythm section makes for a vibrant array of melodically kaleidoscopic wholesomeness.

The Empty Cup will be playing at an Evening on the Green from 6:30pm.

Due to unforeseen circumstances the Perth show  for Erykah Badu, Fat Freddy’s Drop & Mayer Hawthorne on Saturday, Feb 25 has had to change venues. In looking for a new venue, we’ve taken on board the calls for a venue with a bigger dance area, and come to the decision that Belvoir Amphitheatre provides the perfect balance between dancing space at the front and seating on the steps. Anyone who was at last week’s Portishead show would no doubt agree!

Now with Mayer Hawthorn joining the bill in what has become a massive triple headline event – three major internationals will join forces for what already has to be one of the must-see shows of 2012!

How Do You Do? asks Mayer Hawthorne on his brand new album and in February 2012, he returns with his band The County to Australia to find out! No stranger to Australian shores, he’s been a mainstay since January 2010, spreading the sunshine vibes of LA whilst maintaining the spirit of his hometown Detroit (arguably the birthplace of Soul Music) and this February How Do You Do? comes Down Under to make for some very special arrangements.

Mayer Hawthorne, the crooner from Stones Throw records, has just made the jump to Universal Music for his second album entitled ‘How Do You Do?’ His debut LP ‘A Strange Arrangement’ lit a fire across the world for its faithful interpretation of classic genres like Soul, Blues, Country, Doo-Wop and Rock n Roll. Earlier in 2011 he released a free EP of covers including works originally by Chromeo (who have also remixed current single ‘A Long Time’), Isley Brothers, ELO and more.

Immediately familiar but with a fresh twist, Mayer Hawthorne and his gorgeous band The County light it up across Australia including joining Erykah Badu and Fat Freddy’s Drop in what is easily Summer’s greatest triple bill over in Perth!

Not long now till Jessie J hits Aussie shores as part of Future Music Festival 2012 this March, as well as performing her very own headline gig the next day. If you’re loving the kooky Brit just as much as we are, then check out this exclusive FREE DOWNLOAD of her performing an acoustic version of her hit single, Do It Like A Dude!

And for the diehard fans, Jessie J is bringing us more treats, with her exclusively re-issuing her debut album ‘Who You Are’ to include bonus tracks, live footage of her London performance, as well as lots of videos and personal photos that are sure to tie you over for the next few months until you can see her live! But it here now!

With one of the biggest line ups to hit Perth in a long time, Summadayze isnʼt pulling any artists – far from it – with the addition of Justice performing live a couple of weeks back Summadayze Perth has an even BIGGER line up than Summadayze in Melbourne.

And for less than one more week, you have the chance to lock in tickets for the biggest party of the summer at the awesome Early Bird rate of just $132 + bf, until Monday November 21.

On top of this weʼve got another massive round of acts bringing the party to Summadayze 2012! With their brand new album From Here To Anywhere recently released by Modular, welcome Sneaky Sound System! One of the hottest style icons and Australian upcoming DJ talents today, Ruby Rose joins Summadayze. With their live icon Timmy Trumpet in tow, Australiaʼs hottest DJ combination The Stafford Brothers will be bringing the house down. And last but not least, hometown heroes currently at the top of all the Australian dance charts, Bombs Away will return home to where it all started.

For more info on all things Summa, check out the event!
