Following the release of two brand new singles Howlin at the Moon' and Save My Soul in 2018, along with an appearance at Bluesfest, Byron Bay, and a stack of sold out headline shows; blues/rock singer-songwriter Shaun Kirk has released his self titled EP.
To celebrate the release, the troubadour has embarked on a huge 21-date tour across Australia and New Zealand, including a stop in Katoomba on November 9 at the Baroque room.
He will showcase his new tracks in what 2019 Grammy Award Winner for Best Contemporary Blues Record, Fantastic Negrito, describes as "one of the best one man shows he's ever seen".
The tour announcement comes off the back of Kirk's recently disclosed signing with Canadian Artist Agency Paquin following his performances at the East Coast Music Awards back in May, and could be Australasia's last chance to catch him in the flesh for sometime as new overseas prospects appear imminent.
The artist has had rave reviews in the media and in the music community.
"Shaun Kirk has an energy that is unique, with a hybrid of musical styles that challenge genre classification, his shows are nothing short of an experience." - Diesel
"He's a powerhouse" - Sydney Morning Herald.
