The former contestant on The Voice joined the Icehouse touring band in 2011. He takes a major role in the performances of the Icehouse songs, Street Café, Touch The Fire and Man of Colours, all of which we removed from the Perth setlist.

No Promises (from Measure For Measure, 1986)

Cross the Border (from Measure For Measure, 1986)
Don’t Believe Anymore (from Sidewalk, 1984)

Baby, You’re So Strange (from Measure For Measure, 1986)
Great Southern Land (from Primitive Man, 1982)
Can’t Help Myself (from Flowers (Icehouse), 1980)
