SINGER Joan Armatrading has added South Africa to her 2014/2015 world tour and will be performing in Durban on 7 July at the Durban ICC arena.
Joan’s world tour has seen sold out shows throughout Europe, Australia, New Zealand and America. Known as a true craftsman, her distinctive vocals and consummate musicianship, Joan Armatrading has released more than 20 acclaimed albums, received three Grammy nominations, is a Brit Award nominee and has received the highly coveted Ivor Novello Award. Although she will continue to perform on occasion this will be her final major world tour.
“I will never retire but this will be the last major tour that I will undertake. For the first time these concerts will be me solo on stage playing the guitar, piano and singing. I want these concerts to be a special lively interactive one-to-one experience. I
have absolutely enjoyed the last 42 years of performances but now, with my final major tour, I want to capture a unique memory for both myself and the audience,” she said.
Fans new and old will enjoy a musical voyage spanning Joan Armatrading’s entire career and the many genres she has mastered including Pop, Blues, Folk, Reggae and Jazz.
