LEGENDARY You Am I front man Tim Rogers will bring his solo show to Portarlington’s Saints & Sailors on 8 July.
An Australian music icon, Rogers has released 10 critically acclaimed studio albums either solo or via various creative collaborations, three of which debuted at number one on the ARIA charts – 1995’s Hi Fi Way, 1996’s Hourly, Daily and 1998’s #4 Record.
Rogers has multiple ARIA awards and platinum selling LPs as well as a bubbling career in acting, with two indie films released in 2013.
You Am I has had albums released internationally and toured worldwide, headlining shows across North America and Europe.
In addition to You Am I, Rogers has enjoyed critical acclaim for his solo albums, while some of his musical collaborators have included Australian acts such as Tex Perkins, The Temperance Union and The Bamboos.
Rogers has also performed significant roles on television and in theatre. With Australian Rules Football one of his major life passions, in 2012 he was in his element when he became the face of the AFL Finals advertising campaign in which his print and TV commercials recounted the best moments in AFL history.
Promoters said his “intimate and unique performance“ at Portarlington would be a “rare opportunity to see Tim Rogers up close and personal“ and a first for the Bellarine Peninsula, with only limited number of priority-viewing tickets on sale.
