Homegrown singer-songwriter Sarah Blasko has announced a lengthy national tour dubbed The Soloist, because she’ll be doing the whole thing alone.
Performing without a band for the first time in her career, Blasko will strip back her songs for a run of intimate shows around the country between May and July, taking in regional centres like Meeniyan, Thirroul and Castlemaine, but also major cities like Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne and Perth.
“It feels like the right time to challenge myself, take the leap & finally do some headline shows on my own,” says Blasko.
“I’ve slowly been gathering the courage after enjoying a few solo support spots overseas a few years ago. I’m hoping to reimagine material from all of my albums & premiere some new songs as well. I want this to be a really unique & transformative experience for both myself & the audience.”
Blasko released her latest album, Eternal Return, back in 2015, so there’s a chance she might even show off some new material at her upcoming Aussie shows.

UPDATE 10/04/17: Sarah Blasko has added a second Newcastle show to her upcoming tour, after the first sold out. Details below.
