LISA MITCHELL 'Neopolitan Dreams' Tour

Finished
$21.80 - $58.80
Bookings & Enquiries:
This event has now passed
Lisa Mitchell was first introduced to Australia as a stand-out finalist on the 2006 series of Australian Idol. Her extraordinary natural talent shone through a shy 16 year-old exterior and it was clear to all that Lisa has something very special. But Lisa wasn't to take the road of an overnight pop-star. Rather she's spent the past two years developing her craft in her own time and at her own pace.Between 2006 and now this folk pop darling from Albury has been busy developing her sound and show. She independently recorded & released EPs 'Said One to the Other' ((2007) which reached 1 on the iTunes Charts) and 'Welcome to the Afternoon' (2008). Both garnered critical acclaim and gained airplay on Triple J and community radio. Lisa teamed up with a number of similar minded artists including Evermore, Ben Lee, Old Man River, and Bob Evans for advice and inspiration. She toured the country several times developing a real fanbase and performed regular live shows on her MySpace page to her younger fans from Idol.2008 has already been a big year for Lisa. In April she travelled to London to work with the production teams behind Amy Winehouse, KT Tunstall, James Morrison, Sia and Jason Mraz. She is currently in the studio finishing off her debut album with producers Anthony Whiting (Arctic Monkeys, Zero 7, Sia) and artist Ed Harcourt.Off the back of her single 'Neopolitan Dreams' being used as the theme of a major European TV campaign, Lisa has inspired a frenzied reaction amongst international labels all vying to sign the talented 18 year old.Having previously toured with Australian indie rock legends Ben Lee, Tex Perkins and Evermore, Lisa is relishing the chance to headline her own tour. "I'm really looking forward to coming home and doing these shows. Being on stage with a band of musicians will be a new thing for me as I usually play by myself."
