Celebrated singer/songwriters Sara Storer and Peter
Denahy have teamed up for what is set to be one of
the most entertaining shows of 2008.
Sara shot to prominence when she swept all before her
by taking out a record 7 Golden Guitars at the Australian
Country Music Awards in 2004 making her the most awarded
female artist of all time in the genre.
To all who heard her, there was little doubt that here was a unique
talent. It was music that was proudly of and about this country, but
crucially there was a sense that it was rooted firmly in the present.
Her fourth album, Silver Skies is filled with tales of lives and loves of
those on the land but there is a much broader musical palette that
shows her to be a contemporary of Missy Higgins and The Waifs as
much as her country comrade such John Williamson.
Peter Denahy is a multi-talented Australian storyteller in the tradition
of John Williamson and Colin Buchanan. Through an eclectic mix of
material Peter ascends as a skilled commentator on things uniquely
Australian.
There’s also a touch of Slim Dusty in his persona, which is explained
by the fact that Peter played fiddle, accordion and guitar in
Slim’s Traveling Country from 1998.
Peter’s new album, Picture In A Frame spawned a massive hit
in the hilarious “Sort of Dunno Nothin'” which has attracted
more half a million views on YouTube since its release.
Peter has also performed the song on Big Brother
and it’s received support and strong rotation from
Ray Hadley, Richard Fydler and the Today Show.
