Reuniting old fans and magnetising new ones – the unstoppable Toni Childs is back in 2008 with a concert in Sydney on 20 September and a brand new album Keep The Faith.
Australian music fans get to experience Toni Childs’ powerful vocals, charismatic live performances and commanding message in her Keep The Faith tour, which encourages people to connect, heal, overcome fear and transform the world through love.
Best known for her heavily R&B-influenced Don’t Walk Away, Toni Childs hit the big time in 1988, when her critically acclaimed debut album Union went Double Platinum in Australia selling 500,000 albums. The same year she was nominated for three Grammys including Best New Artist.
Living on the island of Kauai, Hawaii, Childs has spent the last eight years recovering from the Graves Disease she was diagnosed with in the summer of 1997. Overcoming her battle with this rare stress disorder, Childs is back from her musical exile giving fans so much more than they might ever have expected.
The emotionally hard hitting Keep The Faith performances will have a blend of roots, rock and folk gospel songs that simmer with Childs’ husky vocals and spine tingling lyrics.
“Australian audiences have been amongst my biggest supporters and I have a special connection to this country and its people. This is why I’ve chosen to launch my album and tour here before the rest of the world and I just can’t wait to be back,” says Toni Childs.
“The tour kicks off in the Australian spring, which is a symbolic time for me as well – a time of new life and growth, the next phase in an ever-expanding journey.”
