Don’t miss your chance to experience live music at its finest!

Daniel Champagne lives and breathes music. Playing upwards of 250 concerts around the world each year, he is as loved globally as he is in his homeland of Australia. His signature guitar style and formidable stage show have garnered accolades and dedicated fans worldwide.

Growing up in the Bega Valley on the Far South Coast of New South Wales, Daniel first picked up his instrument at age five, following in the footsteps of his musical father. He began writing songs at twelve, trained classically through his teens, and performed wherever he could — honing his craft and developing the electrifying live show he is renowned for today. At eighteen, he finished school, turned professional, and hit the road without looking back.

Over the following eighteen years, Daniel has released seven studio albums, sold out concerts across the globe, played some of the biggest festivals under the sun, and shared stages with the likes of Tommy Emmanuel, INXS, John Butler, Lucinda Williams, Ani DiFranco, Judy Collins, and Rodrigo y Gabriela.

Expect jaw-dropping guitar skills, songs that carry the heart away, and the stories of a troubadour that will stay with you long after the last note rings out — a Daniel Champagne show is not just a concert, it’s an experience.
