Cyndi Lauper Brings Blues Album to Oz

I’m just about jumping out of my skin with the news that Cyndi Lauper is heading back to our shores.

Cyndi’s one of those artists I’ve loved forever, but I’ve never managed to see her live. I’ve always dealt with the lacklustre reception of friends and family, but I’ve finally worn my husband down. He may be going under sufferance, but I know he’s going to have an incredible time.

Cyndi’s heading our way to promote her new album Memphis Blues, a collection of covers of songs from Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, and other blues greats. It seems she just can’t wait to bring these bluesy classics to Oz.

“Australia is one of my favorite places and I am looking forward to visiting again in early 2011,” she said in a statement. “We always have a great time when we come to Australia.”

Tickets for the shows go on sale on November 25.
