IN OTHER NEWS:
The new album Hey Dawn, set to be released on August 4, is a feel-good affair, the musician says, and has been hailed by reviewers as "a rich character study, with the singer-songwriter reflecting on the stories that have shaped her and those around her".
It follows Lumsden's "breakthrough" third album Fallow, released in March 2020, which won a swag of awards, including Country Album of the Year, and "got many people through lockdown", Lumsden says.
Audiences should expect "an all-in affair, where joy and exuberance meet intimate storytelling, delivered with wit, warmth and luscious harmonies," and songs from the new album are interspersed with "some old faves" according to Lumsden's team.
Tickets for Friday's show are available via fannylumsden.net $30-$70.
