If you don’t know Joan Armatrading then you can’t sit with us. Just kidding. You can still sit with us. But you definitely can’t come to karaoke with us. But we will encourage you to see this force majeur when she performs at the Canberra Theatre Centre on December 9.

With more than twenty critically acclaimed albums across a 40-year career, Joan Armatrading is one of music’s most enduring figures. One of the world’s most prolific songwriters and musicians, Joan Armatrading has received three Grammy nominations; is a Brit Award nominee and has received the highly coveted Ivor Novello Award.

Although she will continue to perform on occasion this will be the final major world tour. Joan says; “I will never retire but this will be the last major tour that I will undertake. For the first time these concerts will be me solo on stage playing the guitar, piano and singing. I want these concerts to be a special lively interactive one to one experience. I have absolutely enjoyed the last 42 years of performances but now, with my final major tour, I want to capture a unique memory for both myself and the audience.”

There is no possible excuse to miss this once-in-a-lifetime and clearly last opportunity chance to see one of the greatest female artists in music today. Even if you’re not a fan, you’ll be screaming Drop The Pilot at every barbecue you attend for the rest of your life.
