Tasmania’s Christopher Coleman Collective has been steadily building a bridge over the big blue sea called Bass Strait. The charismatic young folk artist and his band were Unearthed by Triple J back in late 2012, and invited to perform at Falls Festival (Marion Bay) the same year.
Also taking out the 2013 Performer category of the national independent artist development program Telstra Road To Discovery, the Collective have since been enjoying a summer of riches, sharing their blend of folk, pop, blues and rock music with crowds at the Taste, Cygnet Folk and Tasmanian International Beer & Port Fairy Folk Festivals, plus a first time trip to Tamworth.
Their self-titled debut album has just been released through MGM, and to celebrate, they are heading out on the road, with a tour taking in the East Coast, Tasmania and South Australia.
Come and check them out at The Front Gallery on Thursday, 27 March.
