Jimmy Barnes w/ The Feelers

Australian rock legend Jimmy Barnes will headline the next ‘a day on the green’ concert series in March 2009 at The Mudhouse Winery and Café in Waipara, Alana Estate Winery in Martinborough and Villa Maria Estate Winery in Auckland.

This mercurial performer is undoubtedly one of the most popular and best-loved singers, and over the past year he’s been delivering killer ‘a day on the green’ performances around Australia.

NZ crowd favourite’s The Feelers are also on this bill, ensuring another sensational array of music!

Jimmy has recently completed a six week tour of Europe including shows in England, Germany and France to support the release of his current album ‘Out In The Blue’ and is in red hot form. His set celebrates his 30-year career at the apex of Australian rock 'n' roll, and includes songs from ‘Out In the Blue’, the album written whilst he was recuperating from open heart surgery early in 2007.

The Sydney concert from the Australian ‘Out In The Blue’ tour is soon to be released on DVD, Jimmy’s ICON book has been so successful it is now in its third re-print and he is also continuing his work as a host with MAX TV. Early next year, Jimmy will take time off from touring to begin writing for his next studio album.

But it is on stage that Jimmy shines, and his enduring popularity is a testimony to his charismatic performances and amazing live shows. New Zealand - get ready to rock!

Nationally ‘a day on the green’ has continued its amazing growth in NZ, and is fast becoming one of NZ’s leading outdoor concert events. Coming into our 2nd year, we’ve only just begun to provide stellar winery locations for local and international artists to entertain us in.

Also on stage are NZ’s all-time touring heroes The Feelers. Playing an acoustic and ‘unplugged’ set, The Feelers are the band who has dominated the NZ music scene since their formation in the late 1990’s.

With a back catalogue full of so many monster hits and rock anthems, The Feelers are the perfect addition to make this a rock concert to remember.

A Day On the Green once again will bring you the best concert experience ever!

Remember, for a totally relaxing day, leave the car at home! Patrons are encouraged to pre-book on a coach to be collected from their accommodation or a nominated location.
