For the first time this year these special concerts will feature GOTYE'S 10 piece live band. They'll be the first opportunity for local audiences to see him perform since he started topping major music charts around the world at the end of last year. In the lead-up to this landmark Australian tour, GOTYE will play a series of international concerts in some of the world's most iconic venues: The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, Colorado's Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Radio City Music Hall in New York City, London's Hammersmith Apollo and Le Zenith in Paris.
The Aussie shows will thus cap a remarkable moment in the career of the acclaimed singer/songwriter also known as Wally De Backer. The statistics for Gotye's breakout hit 'Somebody That I Used To Know (feat Kimbra)' and album Making Mirrors have been well-publicised: the single has topped the charts in 31 countries, with sales fast approaching 10 million worldwide and album sales approaching 2 million so far.
Gotye’s unique artistry was recognised at the APRA Awards when he was named the Australian Songwriter of the Year. While his classic release "Like Drawing Blood" and his unforgettable song "Hearts A Mess" first thrust him into the local limelight in 2006, things have obviously gone to a whole new level over the course of this year. It's therefore only appropriate that he should finish 2012 by bringing it all back home for these select concerts.
Gotye will play at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on Thursday December 6.
