**********Diana will tour Australia for the first time since 2005 and has toured New Zealand for the very first time ever in support of her twelfth album "Quiet Nights". Since her last visit she has given birth to twin boys, released four albums, the "Live in Rio" DVD, produced and performed on Barbra Streisand’s "Love is the Answer", and toured extensively across the United States, Europe and Asia.
Reviews for Diana’s Quiet Nights tour have been uniformly glowing with The Los Angeles Independent writing “…nothing was musically impossible with Diana Krall’s easy and sublime performance” and the Winnipeg Sun called it a “…flawlessly executed performance from all concerned”.
Since her debut in 1993, Diana has topped both the pop and jazz charts and sold millions of records worldwide. She has proven her genuine talent and credibility as a mold-breaking jazz musician time and time again.
Returning to Australia and New Zealand for the first time since her sold out 2007 tour is Madeleine Peyroux. Her latest album offering "Bare Bones" is the followup to previous albums "Half The Perfect World" and her million plus selling breakthrough CD "Careless Love."
Rounding out this unexpected Verve touring lineup is Melody Gardot, who recently took Australia by storm during a short promotional visit, including two sold out showcases, in support of her new album "My One and Only Thrill."
To see these three Verve artists all on the same bill is a rare opportunity and one that will be embraced by music lovers.
