Clare Bowditch goes solo for a very special 'Winter Secrets Tour'

Touring across the country with a brand new rollicking solo show throughout June and July, the ‘Winter Secrets Tour’ by Clare Bowditch promises intimate evenings of songs, stories and special guests, many of whom she is yet to meet; please see the Competitions page

Armed with guitars, loop pedals and an array of the world’s oddest instruments, these shows are a one off solo experiment that will see Clare performing far and wide across the country.

After an incredible summer of touring with John Butler and festival highlights including Blues and Falls festival with her wonderful band, the Feeding Set; these will be stripped back, straight from the heart, confronting and cheeky shows which will be remembered for marking a bold change in direction for Bowditch.

These will be Clare’s last shows for some time in Australia before she relocates to Berlin to pursue exciting European opportunities including intensive touring and an imminent album release. This tour will do more than keep you warm this winter.

Bowditch is thrilled to have a stripped-back version of her
favourite young act, Hot Little Hands (featuring Tim Harvey
of Feeding Set fame!) with her on the road, bringing their
fun filled rock and roll sound to the country. Expect to hear
tracks from their exciting new album, “Dynamite in B&W” which will be released this May.

Also Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane shows will feature
very special guest performances by the wonderful Old Man River.
