CASEY
DONOVAN AND URBAN STONE TOGETHER
While on a
production break from the hit musical The Sapphires, Casey Donovan will come together
with new wave rock band Urban Stone for a series of shows during March-April 2010.
Urban
Stone -in December 2007, won the Australian final of the Global Battle Of The
Bands (GBOB). They went to London, finishing 7th in the World out of 3,000 bands
from 33 countries. Urban Stone returned to Australia and worked with the likes
of Doc Neeson (Angels) and Ian Moss, (Cold Chisel). Their debut album, That's
What She Said was released in November 2009 and the band is headlining at the
Oceania Rock Festival in Noumea in 2010. Urban Stone is certain to continue to
make their mark on the Australian music scene.
After the hype of Australian
Idol died down, Casey Donovan spent time re-evaluating her career and re-establishing
herself as one of Australia's most promising artistes. First came an independent
EP Eye 2 Eye, followed by Vibe Alive Tours and a regular segment on Deadly Sounds
(Syndicated across ABC Radio). Recently, Casey enjoyed a return to the touring
stage in the hit Women Of Soul concept show and a starring role in the contemporary
opera
Miracle In Brisbane at the 2009 Brisbane Festival. Casey is currently
starring in Company B's production of The Sapphires.
Casey was nominated
for Female Artist of the Year at the 2009 Deadlys, adding another nomination to
her ARIA and Deadly wins and nominations.
Urban Stone will perform songs
from their debut album That's What She Said (released in November 2009) while
Casey Donovan will showcase a body of new material written over the course of
her roller coaster musical journey, along with a few crowd favourites. Each week
they will be joined by special guests.
