WHAT THE PRESS SAY..

“The word Prodigy seems to entirely fall short of this soft-spoken young man’s skills, he coaxes sounds and melodies out of his instrument that literally drop jaws.”
The Calgary Herald, CANADA

“Today I saw the future of Folk – Festival goers flocking in the thousands towards the main stage to witness a young musical phenomenon from Australia dish out an absolute show-stopper.” The Firefly Column, USA

“Daniel Champagne is a crossroads. Fusing the strong traditions of Blues, Folk and other roots art with pop showmanship and admirable lyrical ability. I firmly believe that he will become an ambassador for roots music in a time where it desperately needs representation.” The Indie Blender, CANADA

“reinventing roots guitar” Rhythms Magazine, AUSTRALIA“Watching Daniel Champagne perform is a once in a lifetime experience. He is a true prodigy that plays like no one else could possibly play unless they spent at least two lifetimes studying the art.” BW Review, NEW ZEALAND

“Daniel Champagne exudes a natural ease on stage, as he sings poignant lyrics and beautifully crafted melodies that invariably whisk the heart up with grand romanticism. Coupled with an exhilarating guitar talent that transcends mere acoustic playing to replicate a whole band, Champagne is just magical” The Music.com, AUSTRALIA

"You feel as if he just invented the instrument yesterday and was discovering its possibilities afresh” Ted Gioia (American jazz critic and music historian)

A MESSAGE FROM DANIEL..

Hi everyone, it's so exciting to be back in Australia - and I'm so looking forward to playing music back on the South Coast!

Late last year, my partner and I welcomed our first child and decided to settle in and put roots down back in Tilba Tilba, just down the road from where I grew up in Brogo.

As I move forward with a young family and still, a great love for the road - I'll be focusing more on community and specifically on family friendly concerts for everyone, in intimate spaces, away from the bars and the pokies and the big city lights.

I remember being inspired as a kid watching local and touring artists perform in these small halls of the South Coast and I hope that you and yours are able to come out and experience that feeling for yourself!

The concerts are all afternoon shows, they are all seated and they are all family friendly with very affordable options for everyone

Happy listening!
