Following the release of her award-winning album – Hey Dawn – Fanny Lumsden will tour the UK next month.
Acclaimed Australian artist Fanny Lumsden has recently released her award-winning album Hey Dawn – a more extrovert record that feels bolder, less introspective than her previous releases. Lumsden is a story-based songwriter, a thread that runs through her music, running through her work. Having burst onto the UK scene with a live debut on the Avalon Stage at Glastonbury last summer, she’s now heading full steam into a UK and Ireland tour, taking in England, Wales, Ireland and Northern Ireland.
