Dave Dobbyn and Gin Wigmore

If you missed out on tickets for Dave Dobbyn’s sold-out ‘30 years of hits’ tour, then head to the beaches (and a lake) this summer to one of five new shows just added.

A regular ‘must-do’ on Dobbyn’s touring calendar over the years, he is looking forward to introducing newcomer Gin to the delights of summer touring.

The shows are presented by Classic Hits and Dave will perform with his six-piece band, covering his best-loved songs which are included on his new CD ‘Beside You – 30 Years of Hits’ and if you want to learn all the words in advance, the lyrics and scores are included in ‘The Songbook’.

Gin is this year’s most exciting new artist, whose album topped the charts in its first week of release. She is signed to Universal Motown Records and recorded her debut with The Cardinals.

Opening the shows (except Taupo) is Christchurch band Dukes.
