\"\"<\/a>DARREN MIDDLETON is best known from his previous life as guitarist and songwriter for POWDERFINGER.\u00a0 The much loved POWDERFINGER played their last ever show in late 2010 and unsurprisingly Darren spent a bit of the time in a creative and emotional wilderness.\u00a0 For the last 20 years, this band was as much who he was as what he did.<\/p>\n

As the dust settled Darren started working as a producer from his new home in the creative hub that is Melbourne town.\u00a0 This is where the first seeds were planted for his debut solo album “Translations”.\u00a0 “Translations” is classic alternative pop music that lives somewhere in the world between Beatles and Elliot Smith.<\/p>\n

Bernard Fanning, Nic Cester, Clare Bowditch, Davey Lane, Pete Murray and Amy Findlay (Stonefield) are just a few of the mates that visited the studio to lend their talents to this very special record.<\/p>\n

\u201cTranslations\u201d was realised live for the first time at BIGSOUND to a full house and rave reviews.<\/p>\n

Middleton is clearly relishing being on stage again after a two-and-a-half-year break and his infectious indie-rock tunes and the first-rate harmonies from his backing band should ensure these songs find an audience.\u00a0 <\/em>THEMUSIC.COM.AU<\/p>\n

Darren will be touring with members of Something For Kate and Clare Bowditch’s band to form part of his cracking live band.\u00a0 \u00a0These intimate album launch shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane will be the only headline shows for the remainder of 2013.
