The Kate McGill Tour - supported by Mike Dignam



Kate McGill is an astonishing singer and self – thought acoustic musician that became an inspiration to the young artist wannabe that does not believe in their success.

Kate gained the world wide success by posting song covers on YouTube, proving that social media makes wonders. Having over 110,000 subscribers, she is the 5th most watched UK musician on the website.

Kate McGill have already worked with some of the world’s best record producers such as Ted Bruner (Katy Perry) and Curt Schneider (Lissie), and is aiming for more.

Supported By:

Mike Dignam – the acoustic singer/songwriter from Prescott, who’s music was influenced by such masters of acoustic as Jason Mraz, and the guitar virtuoso John Mayer.
Gaining songwriting experience in the streets of London and various competitions, as well as throughout the collaboration with worldwide songwriters, Mike has developed a skill to convert his surroundings into the sensational music.
Mike Dignam has been supporting the number of artists such as Elliot Minor, Nick Harper, Roachford, Will Francis (Aiden), Joe Brooks, Vagabond and others. In February, 2011 there were over 500 tickets sold to his debut solo tour around UK.

Mike Dignam will release a hotly anticipated EP of new material (given away as acoustic tracks at shows supporting Joe Brooks, Elliot Minor, Roachford, Will Francis (Aiden) last year) in May 2011.

More festival dates are due to be announced shortly.

Dates are:
7th March – London, Upstairs @ The Garage
8th March – Nottingham, Rescue Rooms
10th March – Birmingham, The Flapper
11th March – Manchester, Nexus Art Cafe
13th March – Glasgow, King Tuts
14th March – Newcastle, The Cluny2

Biog:
Mike Dignam at the tender age of seventeen wrote and recorded his debut album, producing a collection of songs full of teen angst and energy, wrapped up with dynamic vocals and composition belying his years. He put some of the songs on the internet and let people here them (back when MySpace was novel) and 30,000 fans quickly appeared on his profile. Without anyone else to pay for it, he saved up and paid for the pressing of the CDS (quite a substantial investment for a 17 year old); but this proved to be a good decision as he sold out of the delivery via the internet, at gigs and busking.

Justifiably proud of this fledgling composition Mike set about honing his song writing skills, searching for that hit hook. This journey took him through collaborations with international song writers, winning competitions (under 18 Youth Music winner), going to college to study music, asking for advice off everyone he met... and busking on the mean streets of London.

Without making banal comparisons you wouldn’t be a million miles off the mark with favourable likening to James Morrison and Jason Mraz.

Two years later, having been constantly writing, the beginnings of album number two are taking shape. A free acoustic mini album is due out end of November 2010, to coincide with supporting Joe Brooks on his UK tour. Then 2011 is when it will all begin to come together for this rapidly maturing talent, with his first UK tour accompanied by an EP, festival appearances, European tour and more.
