|
 |
|
'I've had a hell of a time' laughs Ross Wilson as he announces a national tour based around his 45 year road trip of musical life, titled 'Hell of A Time' after the song he wrote for Jimmy Barnes 1994 album 'Flesh and Wood'. Following on from the incredible success of the 2 sold out solo career retrospective concerts dubbed '5 Decades of Cool' at the State Theatre in Sydney and the Palais Theatre in St Kilda, Wilson will perform hits from his entire back catalogue of recording, producing and songwriting.
Expect to hear all the classic Daddy Cool staples, “Eagle Rock”, Hi Honey Ho”, Come Back Again”, “Bom Bom” and the radio banned “Baby Let Me Bang Your Box”. Mondo Rock hits such as “Cool World”, “State of The Heart”, “Chemistry”, “No Time”, and “Come said The Boy” come to life when Ross Wilson and the Urban Legends (Eric 'Mondo Rock' McCusker Guitar & Vocals, John McAll Piano & Vocals, Chris Paraha Bass & vocals and Haydn Meggitt Drums & Vocals) perform with second-to-none delivery. Ross Wilson solo classics “Living in the Land of Oz” and the 1989 hit “Bed of Nails” recently revived as a TV theme are included along with hit's Ross has written for other singers, including 'A Touch Of Paradise' recorded by John Farnham. A selection of more recent solo outings round out the show including the tour theme 'Hell Of A Time” due for release in 2010 on Ross' forthcoming Nashville recorded CD.

Prita
|
 |
|
Fed a steady diet of lentils and Indian music as a child, Prita has acquired more than just an Indian name.. with various styles of music being played as the backdrop to her early years - by osmosis - Prita has absorbed a healthy dose of Crowded House, Tracy Chapman, Stevie Wonder and Lauren Hill. Her newly acquired addition of loop pedal (loopy Fred) has taken her music from a solid folk-jazz-soul sound to a beatsy layering of vocal harmonies, hand percussion and guitar. Recent shows include supports for Ed Kowalczyk, Carus, Tin Pan Orange and Nathan Gaunt and with two EP's under her belt and an album on the way. Prita is carving her path in the Music industry. Recently touring Europe, Prita has delighted audiences and gathered new songs in places far and wide from Estonia to Denmark, England, Greece, and Berlin. In the past few years she has played in USA, the Bahamas, Peurto Rico and Thailand, truly exploring each country and gaining an international grass roots fan base.
