Iconic recording artists Carole King and James Taylor will perform three additional shows when they begin their world tour in Australia this March. The Troubadour Reunion tour will begin with an extra Melbourne show on March 26 and will now take in an Adelaide performance on March 29, as well as a second Brisbane show on April 1.
The two-hour shows will feature a breadth of material including songs they performed during their 1970 debut show at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, which helped propel them both to the world stage.
The historic show marked King’s debut as a solo artist after penning 22 Top 40 hits for artists ranging from Aretha Franklin to the Monkees, while Taylor was supporting his self-titled Apple Records release featuring classics such as Carolina In My Mind and Something In The Way She Moves.
Both have since become multi-platinum-selling artists, Grammy winners and members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall of Fame.
In 1971, King gave us the landmark album Tapestry that has since gone on to sell in excess of 25 million units worldwide. To date more than 400 Carole King compositions have been recorded by more than 1000 artists, resulting in 100 hit singles - many reaching #1. She has also released 25 solo albums. Carole King is arguably the most successful and most revered female songwriter in pop music history.
Over the course of his career, James Taylor has sold more than 40 million albums and won more than 40 gold, platinum and multi-platinum awards as well as five Grammy Awards. Taylor’s first Greatest Hits album earned him the RIAA’s elite Diamond Award, given for sales in excess of 10 million units in the United States. Nearly four decades after helping define the singer-songwriter movement, King and Taylor will tour together with the original band-mates guitarist Danny ‘Kootch’ Kortchmar, drummer Russ Kunkel and bassist Lee Sklar, famous in their own right as ‘The Section’.
