The young Australian born and Nashville based virtuoso
recently described as ‘the finest guitar player of his
generation’ brings his world tour back home! The story goes that
Daniel Champagne first picked up his instrument of choice as a
5-yea-old following in the footsteps of a music father. He began
writing songs at 12, training classically throughout his teens and
performing wherever he could, honing his craft and developing the
dynamite live show that he is renowned for today. At 18 he left
school, turned professional and hit the road without looking back. The
following years have seen him release four studio albums, tour
relentlessly around the globe with upwards of 300 shows per year, play
some of the biggest festivals under the sun and share stages with the
likes of Tommy Emmanuel, INXS, John Butler, Lucinda
Williams, AniDiFranco, Judy Collins and Rodrigo y Gabriela. Daniel
is now regarded as a leading light in acoustic music, with a firm
reputation for dropping jaws, making crowds buzz and breaking guitars
wherever he goes Do not miss this show. They have been selling out all
over the world! WHAT THE PRESS SAY.. “The word Prodigy seems to
entirely fall short of this soft-spoken young man’s skills, he
coaxes sounds and melodies out of his instrument that literally drop
jaws.” The Calgary Herald, CANADA “Today I saw the future of Folk
– Festival goers flocking in the thousands towards the main stage
to witness a young musical phenomenon from Australia dish out an
absolute show-stopper.” The Firefly Column, USA “Daniel Champagne
is a crossroads. Fusing the strong traditions of Blues, Folk and other
roots art with pop showmanship and admirable lyrical ability. I firmly
believe that he will become an ambassador for roots music in a time
where it desperately needs representation.” The Indie Blender,
CANADA “reinventing roots guitar” Rhythms Magazine, AUSTRALIA
“Watching Daniel Champagne perform is a once in a lifetime
experience. He is a true prodigy that plays like no one else could
possibly play unless they spent at least two lifetimes studying the
art.” BW Review, NEW ZEALAND ‘Daniel Champagne exudes a natural
ease on stage, as he sings poignant lyrics and beautifully crafted
melodies that invariably whisk the heart up with grand romanticism.
Coupled with an exhilarating guitar talent that transcends mere
acoustic playing to replicate a whole band, Champagne is just
magical’ Themusic.com.au, AUSTRALIAC
