Artist Spotlight: Garrett Kato
Born in Canada, adopted by Australia, Garrett Kato is one of Byron Bay’s hidden talents. Sporting a lustrous husk of a voice that powers over delicate guitar riffs and a gorgeous soul filling...
Pete Murray is going back to the very beginning of his career this October, just him and his acoustic guitar on the 33-date Yours Acoustically tour as a special treat for his Australian fans.
The tour will pass through most capital cities of the country, but for those unable to get to one of those never fear as Pete Murray is defiantly coming to a town near you.
This is going to be a really fun tour and I'm looking forward to it” Pete says “Jeremy Marou is coming on board as my guitar tech and will also join me on stage for a few songs, plus I'll also be joined by Byron local Garrett Kato, who will be opening up on each show of the tour”.
“I've done Australia so this will be a first -for me this feels like I'm giving back to the fans that have supported me over the years’ quite a few solo acoustic tours internationally over the years but never in Australia so this will be a first, for me this feels like I'm giving back to the fans that have supported me over the years”
So bring your sister, mother, brother and even your grandmother, as this tour will give you the unique opportunity (pun intended) to hear all of Pete Murray’s classics such as ‘Better Days’ and of course ‘Opportunity’ raw and unplugged.
