| Joe Cocker Poised for Cairns Concert Joe Cocker will be bringing his illustrious back catalogue to Cairns as part of his upcoming tour of Australia. The blues-rock singer-songwriter is bringing his band to the tropical north Queensland city on February 1st 2011, which is sure to lead to a surge in searches for hotel deals in the area. Cheap accommodation Cairns customers who get their hands on tickets for the concert can expect to hear Cocker play hits from throughout his four-decade career, including the likes of You Are So Beautiful, Up Where We Belong and You Can Leave You Hat On. However, the vocalist, who hails from Sheffield in the UK, is also likely to treat the audience at the Cairns Convention Centre to a selection of songs from his latest album, Hard Knocks. The Daily Express has described Thankful as the new LP's standout moment, but added: "There's no shortage of great tracks, put together by some of the best in the business." Cocker will be joined for the show by George Thorogood and his Destroyers, which provides another reason for people staying in Cairns accommodation at the time to snap up tickets. write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Jazz News :: home page |
