After his highly successful run on Australian Idol, Dan England has created a remarkable story by honing his songs and playing to tens of thousands of people in towns and cities across Australia. The tour is taking in on average 5 gigs per week, traveling to every state and territory in Australia.
the “Dan England - A year on the Road” tour saw Dan spending much of 2007/2008 on the road playing a record number of live shows. This record breaking run has so far spanned over 168 shows in just over 230 days, including sold out large auditoriums to intimate acoustic shows. Beginning in November 2007, the tour has already had its share of rave reviews and is setting a grueling pace that would test the steeliness of any seasoned performer.
Dan England has travelled the highways with his band, meeting and playing to people in all walks of life. His Idol success was left behind for a road journey involving a genuine connection with people across the country, and a genuine willing to play great music night in and night out.
Dan’s band – ‘The Thieves’ – is a powerful rock group playing tracks from his new EP “The Deconstruction of Dan England”. This Ep involved Dan collaborating alongside renown producers Jeff Lang and Michael Stangel to form a new sound and direction. This originally inspired Dan to put his own band together (‘the Thieves’) and hit the road to tour the new recording the old fashioned way.
The idea of calling his band “the Thieves” came about one night while Dan was staying at his manager’s house and listening to a story about a break-in that had happened there recently.
Dan’s voice is powerful. Alongside a great band playing fantastic songs – this is a live show that will lift you and be sure leave you wanting more. Make sure you get a chance to meet Dan in person and hear the songs that are sure to break him on Australian radio in the coming year.
