Three-time Grammy nominee TONI CHILDS is set to thrill audiences with her signature husky vocals and emotive lyrics during a seven-city New Zealand tour this month.
Fresh from performing a string of sell-out shows in Australia, Toni will perform her blockbuster hits including Stop Your Fussin', as well as showcasing her latest hit album Keep The Faith. The songs from this emotionally hard-hitting album are a blend of roots, rock, folk and gospel songs.
Best known for her heavily R&B influenced Don't Walk Away, Toni hit the big time in 1988 when her critically acclaimed debut album Union went Double Platinum in New Zealand, selling 75,000 copies. The same year she was nominated for three Grammys, including Best New Artist.
Supporting Toni will be Canadian-born TAMI NEILSON, who, since relocating to New Zealand has won two NZ Music Awards for Best Country Album for both 2009 and 2010.
