Mick Harvey has been chosen by PJ Harvey as her support for her forthcoming Australian and New Zealand tour. Mick will perform solo in Auckland and Perth, and will be joined at all remaining shows by Rosie Westbrook on double bass.

Since the late 1970’s Mick Harvey has enjoyed a highly successful career as a musical collaborator with singer/songwriter Nick Cave. Through the formation of their bands the Boys Next Door, The Birthday Party and the Bad Seeds, Mick has proved an invaluable partner to Cave, helping him realise his artistic vision on both stage and record.

Mick Harvey has also worked extensively with PJ Harvey throughout the past 12 years and was a featured player on her albums To Bring You My Love and Is This Desire? In 2000 Mick co-produced PJ Harvey’s Mercury Music prize winning album Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea. On his own Two Diamonds Mick pays tribute to PJ Harvey with a haunting rendition of her previously unreleased hypnotic love/lust song, – œSlow-Motion-Movie-Star’.

Asked by PJ to support, Mick has insinuated that he will include a number of unreleased PJ Harvey songs in his set due to the absence of his regular band and to compliment the evening’s entertainment.
