Matt Langley & Mel Parsons Support Australian Jordie Lane

Matt Langley & Mel Parsons Support Australian Jordie Lane

Two of New Zealand's finest, Matt Langley and Mel Parsons are hitting the road in November and December to support a singer-songwriter described as "Australian brightest new roots music star", Jordie Lane.

APRA Award winner Matt Langley will be playing tracks from his critically acclaimed debut album Featherbones, and road-testing songs for his sophomore album due for release mid-2012.

These shows follow a sold-out tour with Darren Watson in August, and kick off a very busy summer which includes tours with The Eastern and Rosy Tin Teacaddy.

Mel Parsons recently finished a national tour to support the release of her brilliant new album Red Grey Blue. Kiwi music fans have most likely caught a show by Mel of late, whether it be TV appearances, radio, headline tours or supporting the likes of Anika Moa and Greg Johnson. Good things come to those who deserve it, and this Tui Award nominee is worth every accolade.

These shows will be intimate, acoustic, and feature unique collaborations on each other's song. Get down to one if you can!
