News: Leo Sayer To Take His Greatest Hits And ‘Restless Years’ Album On The Road

2 min read

(AUS) Grammy Award-winning international superstar, Leo Sayer, today announced details of the Restless Years Tour 2015, his first solo national Australian tour in over four years.

The Restless Years Tour kicks off on 4 February and will take in over 30 theatres across the country with Leo delivering his legendary hit-packed live show as well as launching his latest album, Restless Years, scheduled for release on 23 January 2015.

With over 80 million albums sold worldwide, 25 Top 10 international hits, 5 Top 10 albums and writing credits for the likes of Roger Daltrey, Cliff Richard, Dolly Parton and Tina Turner, Leo Sayer’s career has been one of stellar proportions.

From his first big single, The Show Must Go On, from the hit debut album, Silverbird (1973), Leo Sayer has had a seemingly never ending stream of hits – One Man Band, Long Tall Glasses, Moonlighting, You Make Me Feel Like Dancing, When I Need You, Thunder in My Heart and More Than I Can Say all topped the charts in the 70’s and 80’s. His most recent UK No. 1 came in 2006 with a remix of Thunder in My Heart, introducing a whole new generation to the magic of Leo Sayer.

With over 40 years of recording and touring the globe behind him, Leo Sayer is showing no signs of slowing down, always living by his motto “The Show Must Go On”.

Leo added, “I’m really excited to be starting 2015 with a big national tour and my new album Restless Years. We’ve got a great band and new material, a bunch of classic hits and I’m raring to go. See you soon!”

Leo Sayer’s new album Restless Years, to be released in January, 2015, was recorded in ARIA Award winner, Mitch Cairns’ Little Red Jet Studio and was mixed by the legendary John Hudson of London’s Mayfair Studios who, like Leo, now calls Australia home.

Tickets for the Restless Years Tour go on sale from 10.00am local time, Monday, 24 November 2014 (excluding Seymour Centre, which go on sale on Wednesday, 26 November). For full tour dates and information click here.
