Talented American composer Scott Alan is on his way to Australia ahead of the release of his third solo album “What I Wanna Be When I Grow Up” set to be released November 15, 2010.
Scott’s first two solo albums, ‘Dreaming Wide Awake’ and ‘Keys’ feature some of the brightest stars of Broadway including Wicked alumni Megan Hilty, Shoshana Bean, Stephanie J Block and Eden Espinosa.
Scott will be touring Australia as part of Harvest Rain Theatre Company’s ‘Broadway to Brisvegas’ series with a concert in Brisbane at the Powerhouse Theatre September 3rd followed by a concert in Melbourne at the Malthouse theatre on September 6th.
Despite currently being in the busy process of recording his third album, Scott took the time to answer some questions for Broadwayworld Australia about his upcoming tour:
Will this be your first time visiting Australia?
This will be my very first time in Australia and I couldn’t be looking more forward to it.
What convinced you to tour Australia?
I was invited to teach a masterclass through the Harvest Rain Theatre Company in Brisbane, as well as present a concert of my work proceeding the classes. From there, we added other venue in Melbourne as well, which will feature some very special guests that I am very excited to get the opportunity to work alongside.
You have a diverse repertoire of music, what can Australian audiences expect from your upcoming concerts?
I really try and keep all of my concerts very personal. It will just be me and a piano for both concerts, with the various scattered guests here and there. I think with me, though, the audience should always expect the unexpected.
