Sarah Blasko secures Temper Trap support

Sarah Blasko is announced as the Special Guest on her fellow countrymen's 14 date UK tour in April and May. Having won the ARIA Award and Rolling Stone Award for Best Female and the coveted J Award for Album Of The Year with her 2009 release 'As Day Follows Night' in Australia, Sarah is relocating to Europe for much of 2010. 'As Day Follows Night', which was produced by Björn Yttling (from Peter, Bjorn and John) and recorded in Sweden, is Sarah's third album but the first to be released in Europe.

Drawing comparisons with Fiona Apple and Lisa Loeb in a recent review in Uncut magazine, 'As Day Follows Night' is an elegant, intelligent collection that is her most lyrically direct, musically simple and emotionally affecting album to date. Rolling Stone wrote "as warm as Blasko has ever sounded – immaculate, organic and airy" whilst long-time fan and Go-Between Robert Forster described the album as "A triumph. Blasko has written a wonderfully diverse and melodic collection….a remarkable set of songs…a wonderful record. A classic, in fact."

Having played in Britain a handful of times in the past (supporting Tom McRae in 2005 and a couple of headline shows in London) Sarah will be joining The Temper Trap on tour following a run of dates on the continent with Les Femme S'en Mêlent Festival.
