PRESS RELEASE ___________________________________________________24th September 2008____ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ronan/ronan is a magic trick in himself"

La Nouvelle Republique

AUSTRALIA TOUR 2008
25th Sept to 31st October

Magic Roundabout Music Promotions, Café Lounge, Splash Industry (FR) and Flying Fish Media are very happy to introduce French Chanson Bricolee musician Ronan/Ronan on his first tour to Australia......

 
Banjo Player and singer of Fils de Teuhpu Ronan Guittier travels direct from the small french village of Montreuil to Australia
to perform his Solo Show Ronan/Ronan and launch his album "Copie/Colle".

With 26 shows throughout Australia, Ronan/Ronan will be playing an eclectic selection of Festivals and venues, starting with shows in the pristine World Heritage forests of Cape York's Wallaby Creek Festival to Brisbane Powerhouse to NZ Nelson Arts Festival to the beautiful Famous Spiegeltent at Sydney Opera House. With many dates in between, Ronan/Ronan tours to a venue near you to perform a very special show.

On the stage Ronan creates his music completely live. In a joyous bric-a-brac of colour, turntable decks,  children's toys and a box full of treasures, Ronan/Ronan creates his poetic, lyrical mayhem, performing light hearted yet haphazard songs that you may just find yourself singing along to!!

Surrounded by an array of different acoustic instruments and a loop pedal, Ronan experiments and creates his own musical universe – amusing, entertaining and poetic all at the same time. His performance is visually amazing and teeters on the edge of comedy and surreal musical madness.

Ronan's Instruments include Plastic train, banjo, 'moo' box, turntable, ukulele, hand-saw and log of wood,  the 'music star' toy, trumpet, aspirin, cymbals, 'squawk' box harmonica, whistle, small bells, door slamming, rustling of plastic bags and so on......

With his warm smile, a cheeky look and a loaded shelf, Ronan/ronan, the true one man orchestra, will wind you up like a clock!
