Wanda Jackson Tours Australia

Wanda Jackson will be in Australia in June for concerts in Sydney, Melbourne and the Wintersun Festival in Coolangatta/Tweed Heads. First show starts on Friday 1st June. Wanda is most remembered for her massive hit Lets Have a Party in the 60's and her rise to fame along side of dating Elvis who encouraged her to step from gospel to Rock 'N Roll.  As a sign of respect to her old friend, she has released her new album 'I remember Elvis' and will be promoting it on her tour.

There are great singers and there are great entertainers: WANDA is both and her shows are energy packed. On one tour in France she was billed as 'HURRICANE WANDA' and she did not disappoint them. The JAPANESE PEOPLE took a super liking in 1959 to one of WANDA'S Rockin' songs, 'FUJIYAMA MAMA' and made it their #1 song for six months. WANDA toured Japan that year for seven weeks.

WANDA tours Europe and Scandinavia several times each year Headlining big ROCK & ROLL Festivals. One year in BUDAPEST, HUNGARY for their freedom celebration, WANDA sang to over 70,000 fans. She went to Europe six times in 2004. Her German recording of "SANTO DOMINGO" became a #1 song in six different German speaking countries, and is still known by all the people today.

Wanda was on the final ballot for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004 and will give it another run in 2005.

For these shows at The Gaelic, Wanda Jackson will be backed by known other then Wes Pudsey & The Sonic Aces, a band in there own right from Stockholm to Los Angles as Australia's wildest and most gifted exponents of authentic Rockabilly, this only helps build this into a not to miss event.

Throughout the night Sydney's most formidable Rockabilly / Swing DJ's Limpin Jimmy and the Swingin Kitten will also be mixing the vinyl's and keeping the party going to the early hours of the morning.

Don't miss Wanda Jackson when she comes to your doorstep for her Intimate Showcase tour.
