Brisbane Powerhouse – Sat 7 Feb 09 – 7:30pm

Swedish Grammy Award winner José González’s extraordinary finger-picking guitar skills, hushed vocals and warm melodies create an intimate musical experience with universal appeal.

Born in Sweden to Argentinean parents, González’s signature Spanish-meets classical guitar style is influenced by both Northern Argentinean folk and Scandinavian pop.

With gold and platinum records in multiple countries, González is revered for his own song writing as well as his inspired acoustic interpretations of songs by artists such as Massive Attack, Kylie Minogue and Joy Division.

His low-voiced, serious and introverted music has been embraced by everyone from the indie crowd to your grandmother. Now it’s time for his second album In Our Nature.

Jose will be supported by Luluc, the musical duo comprising the songwriting of singer/guitarist Zoë Randell and Steve Hassett’s fine-tuned supporting ear.
