Peter & Gordon toured Australia in 1964, and scored subsequent Australian top ten hits with Lennon/McCartney’s Nobody I Know and I Don’t Want to See You Again, Buddy Holly’s True Love Ways, Del Shannon’s I Go To Pieces, Woman (another McCartney song), Lady Godiva (the 6th biggest selling song in Australia in ’66!) and Knight In Rusty Armour. Peter’s subsequent days as A&R Director for the Beatles' Apple Records also made history, and he became a legend as Producer and Manager of James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt and a host of others after moving to California at the end of the ‘60s. He remains the only Artist Manager to be featured on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, and his studio work has led to 2 Grammy Awards for "Producer of the Year". Albert Lee first toured Australia with Joe Cocker in 1974, and most recently in 2018 performing to much acclaim at shows including the Sydney & Adelaide Guitar Festivals, Melbourne Guitar Show and the Gympie Muster. Albert began his career as a touring musician in the early sixties, and soon catapulted onto the stage with the likes of Buddy Holly’s Crickets, Eric Clapton, and Emmylou Harris. A 25-year run as Music Director of his beloved Everly Brothers coincided with studio and stage work with Vince Gill, Rosanne Cash, Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings and Paul McCartney & Ringo Starr ("The Concert for George"). Even with all this, he found the time for over 10 solo and band albums under his own moniker. His numerous studio sessions have led to 2 Grammy Awards and 4 nominations. Peter Asher & Albert Lee’s history is one of song, and these duo storyteller shows will reflect that history and feature those songs. The songs that influenced them along with songs they influenced. From the Peter & Gordon catalogue, they will harmonize on A World Without Love, I Go To Pieces, and more. From Albert Lee's back pages, expect the Jimmy Webb penned title track from his new acoustic album, The Highwayman, Glenn Campbell's A Better Place, and the Jimmy Jones/Otis Blackwell classic Handy Man. Inspirations to both artists such as the Everly Brothers provide Crying in the Rain and Bye Bye Love, while from Buddy Holly comes Well, All Right. As Peter & Albert tell us stories of the travels that brought them to so many of the intersections along the road of music history, the two legends bring these timeless songs to life. “Peter Asher's voice literally soared through Carnegie Hall" (Fox News). “Albert Lee is the ultimate virtuoso" (Eric Clapton).

  • Biography Emmylou Harris
    BIOGRAPHY EMMYLOU HARRIS A 13-time Grammy winner and Billboard Century Award recipient, Emmylou Harris’ contribution as a singer and songwriter spans 40 years. She has recorded more than 25 albums Photo: Veronique Rolland Veronique Photo: and has lent her talents to countless fellow artists’ recordings. In recognition of her remarkable career, Harris was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2008. Harris is known as much for her eloquently straightforward songwriting as for her incomparably expressive singing. Admired through her career for her talent as an artist and song connoisseur, Harris shook up country radio in the 1970s, and established herself as the premiere songwriter of a generation selling more than 15 million records and garnering 13 Grammy Awards (this year she and Rodney Crowell won the Grammy for "Best Americana album"), three CMA Awards, and two Americana Awards. Harris is one of the most admired and inuential women in music. She has recorded with such diverse artists as Linda Ronstadt, Daniel Lanois, Bob Dylan, Mark Knoper, Neil Young, Gram Parsons, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Roy Orbison, Ryan Adams, Beck, Elvis Costello, Johnny Cash, Lucinda Williams, Lyle Lovett and most recently Rodney Crowell. Few artists have achieved such honesty or have revealed such maturity in their writing. Forty years into her career, Harris continues to share the hard-earned wisdom Photo: Jack Spencer Photo: that—hopefully if not inevitably—comes with getting older, though she’s never stopped looking ahead. A longtime social activist, Harris has lent her voice to many causes. She has performed at Lilith Fair, helping promote feminism in music and organizing several benet tours to support the Vietnam Veterans of America Foundation.
