CMC nominee to perform in Ararat

One of the hottest new talents on the Australian country music scene, Imogen Clark, will bring her Late Night Girl Tour to Ararat next week.

Clark will perform in Ararat Hotel’s red room for not-for-profit music collective Ararat Live on September 19.

Ararat Live’s Rob Shea said the group was proud to announce Clark’s return to the region.

“Imogen is quickly becoming one of the hottest new talents on the Australian music scene,” he said.

“She was nominated for the prestigious CMC New Artist of the Year award.

“Imogen will visit Ararat as part of a tour with her new album Collide. She’s been winning accolades at every show.”

Clark’s lead single, ‘Collide’ is steeped in rhythmic, alt-country with a gritty rock edge.

“The song showcases Imogen’s deep, soulful vocal tune and is another example of her wisely crafted lyrics,” Mr Shea said.

“The sophistication of this album shows a clear growth in Imogen’s personality from a younger, more naive girl to a more mature, worldly young woman.”

Clark will perform from 8pm and entry is $20 at the door.

“The entry fee for over-18s goes to the performers and to support future events,” Mr Shea said.

“All Ararat Live shows are open to the general public but we encourage potential guests to get on our mailing list.”
