Recently named 2020 Victorian Australian Of The Year, Archie Roach AM will tour his 'Tell Me Why' show May to July in what will be his final national tour ever.
These run of shows will visit Canberra, Melbourne, Perth, Hobart, Launceston, Adelaide and Sydney, with more dates to be announced."Releasing my debut album, 'Charcoal Lane', back in 1990 was the most amazing experience in my life," Archie says.
"I never imagined that I would be here three decades later still recording and singing on stages in Australia and the world.
"Music has kept me going, kept me alive. It's something that I have come to love, especially the relationship I have with those who come to my shows.
"I am also most grateful to all the people that I have worked with through the years."
These shows will celebrate Roach's eponymous memoir and companion album, 'Tell Me Why'. Audiences will also hear seminal songs from his back catalogue alongside influential music from his youth.
Roach will be joined onstage by his five-piece band, including award-winning jazz composer and improviser Paul Grabowsky and special guest vocalist Emma Donovan.
