Jason Singh, original founding member and lead singer of one of Australia’s most iconic rock bands Taxiride, will bring his full band tour, 25 Years of Taxiride, to Avoca Beach Theatre on June 1.
This national milestone tour, comprising a string of electrifying performances right across the country, promises to be a captivating journey through Singh and his band’s remarkable 25-year career and incredible musical legacy.
Since their formation in 1997, Taxiride has engaged audiences with their memorable hits and consistently delivered music that has stood the test of time.
The infectious melodies and heartfelt lyrics earned Singh a dedicated fan base and numerous accolades throughout his illustrious career, from the chart-topping double platinum debut album Imaginate and subsequent releases to ARIA awards, and the most played song on Australian radio in 2002 Creepin’ Up Slowly.
Having toured the world and his home country, playing countless sold-out headline shows, Singh and his band established themselves as one of Australia’s premier live bands, leading them to be selected for the most-sought-after support slots for superstars such as Tina Turner, Lionel Ritchie, John Fogerty and Matchbox 20.
As the charismatic and talented lead singer, Singh’s uniquely recognisable powerhouse vocals are synonymous with Taxiride.
“It’s hard to believe it’s been 25 years since I started this incredible journey,” Singh said.
“I am eternally grateful to the amazing fans for their unwavering support throughout the years.
“This tour is for them– a chance to celebrate the music that has brought us all together and the incredible memories we’ve made along the way.”
Expect to hear all the Taxiride singles including the Top 5 hits Get Set, Everywhere You Go, and Creepin’ Up Slowly.
In addition to his work with his band, Singh has achieved outstanding solo success, releasing multiple top 10 ARIA club dance hits and earning critical acclaim with his debut solo album.
In 2018, following his solo support to John Farnham, Singh joined multi-Grammy nominated pop-rock trio Hanson as part of their sell-out Middle Of Everywhere World Tour, adding to the already impressive list of internationals he has supported as a solo artist over the years, including Rick Astley and Mariah Carey, as well as Aussie icon Jimmy Barnes.
From the early days of breakthrough success to the solo ventures and everything in between, this epic anniversary tour will celebrate the musical milestones that have solidified both Taxiride and Singh’s place in Australian music history.
