Peter Garrett finally drops his new solo album ‘The True North’ today. Recorded in his hometown of Sydney with producer Tony Buchen and featuring artwork by daughter, Grace Garrett the songs span infectious rockers like Permaglow, the atmospheric title track and a new focus track called Paddo – a rap paean to the SCG (among many other things!).
To coincide with this release Peter and his band The Alter Egos kicked off their national tour with a special ‘Great Southern Nights’ performance at Newcastle City Hall this week that included new tunes, some highlights from his 2016 solo debut, and more than a few Midnight Oil classics featuring the signature guitar work of the Oil’s Martin Rotsey. ‘The True North’ Tour includes a sold-out show at Sydney’s Factory Theatre tonight and will then visit the other mainland capitals plus Cairns before hitting its apex at Bluesfest over Easter.
