With his new album hitting the charts at a phenomenal #3 (#1 on the Australian chart) and the video for new single ‘Make You Happy’ creating waves across the globe, Sydney singer/songwriter Josh Pyke is pleased to announce the national ‘Chimney’s Afire’ album tour.
The ‘Chimney’s Afire’ tour follows Josh’s recent sold-out run of dates in support of the album’s first single ‘The Lighthouse Song’, and will see Josh showcase songs from the record critics have been raving about:
**** – Rolling Stone
“Stunning” – ****½ Sunday Telegraph
“One of the year’s best” – **** Sunday Herald Sun
“An important and thrilling Australian artist” – **** ½ Daily Telegraph
“A quiet triumph of deceptively simple but devilishly affecting songwriting” – Sydney Morning Herald
“One of the best new songwriters to emerge in Australia in the past decade” – Courier Mail
“One of 2008’s standout Australian albums” – Album of the week Drum Media WA
‘Chimney’s Afire’, which follows on from Josh’s ARIA Award winning debut ‘Memories & Dust’, was chosen as triple j’s feature album while the video for new single ‘Make You Happy’, where Josh cruises around Sydney Harbour in a custom-made guitar boat, was recently nominated for a J Award for Music Video of the Year.
During the filming of the video, pictures of Josh in the guitar boat made their way into newspapers across the world, and spread rapidly across the internet. The video was also featured on the front page of YouTube Australia and New Zealand and continues to draw praise from fans and critics alike.
Josh will be joined at all shows on the ‘Chimney’s Afire’ tour by excellent Sydney four-piece Cloud Control and up-and-coming singer/songwriter Jackson Mclaren (except WA). Don’t miss these shows – tickets will sell-out so be sure to get in early when they go on sale December 1!
