Fanny Lumsden: Hey Dawn Tour – Ballarat

Join ARIA and eight-time Golden Guitar award winning singer-songwriter Fanny Lumsden and her incredible band, The Prawn Stars, as they hit the road celebrating her fourth studio album ‘Hey Dawn’.

Fanny’s third album ‘Fallow’, released in March 2020, was considered a ‘breakthrough’, winning the ARIA, CMAA Golden Guitar and AIR awards for Country Album of the Year, as well as four additional Golden Guitars. It was shortlisted for the prestigious Australian Music Prize, debuted in the top 10 ARIA charts and got many people through lockdown. Needless to say, following that, a fourth album was always going to be daunting.

So Fanny went into this album with one thing in mind – she wanted it to feel good. That’s all and as Rod Yates said, “Hey Dawn does feel good. It’s a rich character study, with the singer-songwriter reflecting on the stories that have shaped her and those around her… in short, Lumsden’s most complete offering to date.”

Fanny Lumsden’s shows are one of a kind. An all-in affair, where joy and exuberance meet intimate storytelling, delivered with wit, warmth and luscious harmonies. Alongside her band, The Prawn Stars, Fanny has “established herself as one of the genre’s most esteemed performers” (The Australian), honing her craft over 10 years and hundreds of halls across Australia on their annual ‘Country Halls Tour’.
