Jimmy Barnes has announced his much anticipated return to touring, heading to Christchurch at the Isaac Theatre Royal on Saturday 27th July, following open heart surgery late last year.
After bouncing back from open heart surgery late last year, and already delivering a memorable Byron Bluesfest performance and announcing a run of Australian dates, The Hell of a Time New Zealand Tour will see Jimmy in up close and personal mode. Telling short stories and tall tales as well as singing some of his favourite songs, including tracks from the Flesh and Wood album.
Jimmy said, “I’m excited about getting back on stage, in front of the band and playing for my Kiwi mates. I really want to thank everyone for their support and good wishes while I was ill. The family were passing on your messages of care and it really lifted my spirits.”
Flesh and Wood was Jimmy’s seventh solo album and entered the Australian charts at #2 in December 1993. It went on to garner triple platinum sales, spending eight weeks in the Top 10 and four months in the Top 50. Flesh and Wood featured duets with the likes of Joe Cocker, Diesel, Ross Wilson, Don Walker, The Badloves and Archie Roach, with four singles released from the album: The Weight, a Top 10 hit, followed by You Can’t Make Love Without A Soul, Still Got A Long Way To Go and It Will Be Alright.
