Award-winning Australian singer-songwriter Mia Dyson is thrilled to unveil her new single, Gambling and announce an Australian headline tour in support of the new track with a string of dates around the country throughout November and December. Gambling is the first taste of her brand new album, due out early 2018.
“The thought of choosing to be vulnerable is scary before I act on it. And, being vulnerable is the most fulfilling way I have found to live. ‘Gambling’ is a reminder that this moment is the chance to either live life on life’s terms; or to let the chance for an experience slip away in positive or negative fantasy.” Says Dyson of the new single.
In January of 2017, Mia headed to legendary music mecca Muscle Shoals, AL to record a new album with Ben Tanner (Alabama Shakes, St Paul & The Broken Bones) behind the controls. Joining her in the studio was longtime drummer Erin “Syd” Sidney, original ‘Swamper,’ David Hood on bass and John Paul White (The Civil Wars) on background vocals.
Dyson, who currently resides in Los Angeles will return to Australia this November for an extensive run of shows along the east coast in addition to her festival performances at Inland Sea Of Sound Festival, Bitter & Twisted Festival, SS&A and Queenscliff Music Festival.
Mia Dyson has toured with the likes of Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt and many more. A multiple ARIA & APRA award-winning artist, Dyson was recently named one of Australia’s top 25 guitarists of all time.
Her albums have been widely praised. The Moment received 4 stars in Rolling Stone Australia while Idyllwild was hailed as “Brilliant” by Daytrotter debuted in the CMJ top 100 in the US, and scored a win as Double J Radio’s “Artist of the Year”.
Mia Dyson performs with special guests supporting Thin Green Line Foundation at Balnarring Community Hall on Saturday November 25. Doors open at 7pm with tickets available from Oztix. For more information visit www.thingreenline.org.au
