Diesel 'Let It Fly' Tour

Wednesday, 17 July 2013 13:40

After 25 years in rock'n'roll, Diesel otherwise known as Mark Lizotte has delivered an album that melds all the varied sides of his musical personality – and reveals a few new ones besides.

“Stylistically,” says Diesel, “it’s got the R&B DNA in it that’s very me.”

That Diesel DNA, so familiar for 25 years, has sprouted new strands – new instruments, new friends, new stories, new insights and a glimpse at the next generation.

To introduce ‘Let It Fly’ there will be a special series of four only ‘Fans First’ events in July/August. The ‘Fans First’ events will have a strictly limited amount of tickets available for purchase and are an exclusive opportunity to give Diesel’s loyal audience a chance to experience the new songs in intimate setting. Diesel will be performing solo and there will be a Q&A session with the audience members at each of these events. Plus a copy of the new album ‘Let It Fly’ with a signed slick will be shipped to patrons of the ‘Fans First’ events!

In This Issue

In this jam-packed new issue of Australian Guitar (pun intended), we tap into the mind of the man bringing a fierce new edge to the blues: the one and only Gary Clark Jr. We're also showcasing a whole stack of artists who are switching things up in 2019, like Dream Theater, Devin Townsend, Bring Me The Horizon, Girlpool, La Dispute and Foals. Plus, we catch up with the elusive Kurt Vile before he lands Down Under for Bluesfest. Of course, it wouldn’t be an issue of Australian Guitar if we didn’t get down to the wire with some local legends! In this one, we chat with Tommy Emmanuel, Julia Jacklin, Pond, Amy Shark and Sports Bra. And as always, we’ve got a stack of hot new gear reviews, lesson and technique columns, album reviews and producer profile. Plus, learn to play a Green Day classic with the exclusive full tablature for “Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)”.
