TRAVIS COLLINS ‘UN-WIRED’

with very special guests CAITLYN SHADBOLT & MICKEY PYE

‘Un-Wired’ is a new approach to acoustic touring… This is front porch acoustic jamming, but amplified.

Three respected artists in their own right, each a talented multi-instrumentalist, playing their own hits but also leaning on a handful of ’s biggest hits to create a show like no other. ‘Un-Wired’ is a celebration of the roots of music and song in the rawest and most sincere form - Acoustic. The show swings effortlessly and comfortably between moments of power and energy, to intimate and personal, funny and charismatic. This show has a depth well beyond just the three individual performers alone.

Australian country music star is no stranger to success, his latest offering ‘Wired’ debuted at #1 on the ARIA country albums chart, and placed at #23 in the all-genre chart. The lead single ‘Curves’ set a new record with a whopping 10 weeks (9 consecutive) at #1 on the national airplay chart. He is a multiple Golden Guitar, ACE, MO, and CMC award finalist. With a string of #1’s under his belt already and a decade of winning fans all over whilst touring with some of the industry heavyweights, Travis now turns his attention to his own tour.

“The album ‘Wired’ is all about connecting with people, stripping back all the layers of blur and just honestly singing my life - their life. It’s about feeling togetherness, as if ‘wired’ through music and proud of where we come from. When I think about touring this album, I want it to feel exactly that way live too… strangely enough, that meant stripping it all back again, but in a different way… the show, the tour, had to be ‘Un-Wired’ .

Country girl Caitlyn Shadbolt ’s angelic voice and infectious enthusiasm make a perfect package. Caitlyn’s energy is contagious and brings a smile to every audience she encounters with her new fun loving style of country music.
