Songman Daniel Champagne is slowly winding up his final Australian tour for the year, a tour which began back in March. While most five-year-olds are running around committing felonies, Daniel had a guitar in his hand. It has pretty much been there since. Writing songs from the age of 12 and classically trained throughout his teen years, the young songman left school at the age of 18 with an eye cast on the big open road. He has performed throughout North America, the United Kingdom, Europe and New Zealand, playing such festivals as Canada’s Vancouver Folk and Mariposa Festival and Belgium’s Labadoux, as well as local festivals including Woodford, Falls Festival, Port Fairy Folk Festival and Bluesfest. Beav’s Bar, Geelong – June 26 & The Red Room, Ararat – June 27.
