Renee Geyer

w/ Abbey Stone

The fabulous Renee Geyer will be gracing the Saucer stage once again this coming June and we couldn’t be more thrilled! Renee Geyer’s career has spanned four decades and is still going strong. She is a singer, a songwriter, producer and author who mesmerises audiences with her unique take on jazz, blues and soul. You won’t want to miss such an exceptional talent, so book your tickets early for this one space riders!

In her late teens Renee was Countdown royalty; in her 20s she had a string of pop, soul and reggae hits spanning the 70s and 80s; her LA years were in the studio with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Sting, Joe Cocker and Chaka Khan; her 90s renaissance with Paul Kelly. In 2010, Renee released The Ultimate Collection, covering four decades of Soul. Whether in the studio or on stage, this is where Renee Geyer is at home and continues to wow audiences with her remarkable voice.

Renee released albums which included So Lucky, Difficult Woman and Sweet Life. Her career has never stalled. At the end of 1999, Geyer released her frank life story – Confessions Of A Difficult Woman through Harper Collins, and 2003 saw her release the Gold selling (and self-produced) album Tenderland.

In 2004, Renee hooked up with Brisbane producer Magoo to co-produce her 21st album, Tonight, which has received stunning reviews and was nominated for an ARIA award. In 2005, Renee was inducted in to the ARIA Hall Of Fame; a proud occasion in which she joined the ranks of Australia’s most respected and accomplished musicians.

2007 was to be a busy one for Renee, who worked on her 22nd album, Dedicated, released on EMI in September. With a plethora of select appearances around the country, she remains one of our most enduring and endearing artists.

2012 saw Renee notch up 40 years in the music business, and to celebrate this amazing anniversary, Renee recorded a big band swing album – something that no female artist has ever endeavoured to do in this country.

Renee Geyer had started out a sensual blues belter, now she has evolved into a bona fide music icon – someone to look up to for never having let go of her dreams. This consummate entertainer with a proud body of work still transfixes a room with the power of her song.
