An Acoustic Evening With Ben Harper: Australian Tour Dates 2012

Ben Harper will return to Australia this coming November to perform his first-ever acoustic headline tour. With a long and rich touring history, Harper has always had a great affinity with Australian audiences.

A world-renowned musician, songwriter, producer and activist, his fan base has grown to a reach that now spans several continents. Whether it’s through the soul of southern Gospel, 70s funk, blues, reggae, or straightforward rock and roll, Harper and his trademark Weissenborn guitar continue to stun audiences with incendiary live performances and timeless songwriting.

While his past tours have given us a taste of just how special a solo performance might be – this is the first time Australian audiences will experience the two-hour plus, one-man acoustic Ben Harper journey.

He’s been asked by fans to perform in this kind of intimate outing since his acclaimed acoustic performance at the inaugural Bonnaroo Music Festival in 2002. Now Australian fans will be in for a treat as he performs a back catalogue spanning ten studio albums and 18 years.
