Damien Leith, Deni Hines, Jon Stevens Join DUETING IT FOR THE KIDS, 8/22
Dueting it for the Kids will be a night full of surprises with a massive roster of artists collaborating for one night only at Sydney's State Theatre on Monday 22 August.
Many of Australia's greatest will be paired-off to recreate rock anthems and pop hits as duets, all to help the Australian Children's Music Foundation (ACMF) continue its important work with disadvantaged young Australians.
More iconic vocalists have just signed on to a huge line-up of stars already announced for the 2011 show including Deni Hines, Jon Stevens and 17 year-old Australia's Got Talent sensation Liam Burrows.
Damien Leith will take to the stage with opera diva Antoinette Halloran for a haunting duet arrangement of the Leonard Cohen classic Hallelujah and Liam Burrows will team with seasoned crooner Tom Burlinson to sing the Rat Pack favourite Lady is a Tramp.
Wendy Matthews will sing Stop Draggin My Heart Around with The Church front man Steve Kilbey, while rock legends Dave Gleeson of Screaming Jets fame and Angry Anderson will raise the roof with Thin Lizzy's Boys Are Back in Town.
Other artists in the phenomenal line-up include Anthony Callea, Michael Cormick, Susie Ahern, Michael, Carr, Marina Prior, Diesel, John Waters, Caroline O'Connor, Lee Kernaghan, Catherine Britt, Danielle Spencer, Dave Faulkner, Debra Byrne, Doug Parkinson, Leo Sayer, MurRay Cook, Peter Northcote, Ross Wilson, Steve Balbi, Don Spencer, Tim Freedman, Paulini, and Glenn Shorrock.
The MC's for this extravaganza will be Adam Spencer and James Valentine from 702 ABC Sydney.
