Press Release:
Flip Grater - While I'm Awake I'm At War Album Release Tour
"An album with a rare sensitivity. There are echoes in the delivery of the finest French singers a la Francoise Hardy,
Carla Bruni and Marianne Dissard, except Flip is singing in English. A beautiful rare gem." - Roger Marbeck
“With a distinctively smooth coffee-and-cream voice that is reminiscent of Stevie Nicks [Flip Grater] has created a
masterpiece of indie subtlety in her new album While I’m Awake I’m At War.” - Diatribe
Flip Grater’s latest musical offering While I’m Awake I’m At War is quickly becoming the buzz among music lovers across
New Zealand. With 5-star reviews and rapturous verbal applause, Grater’s third album is the one we’ve all been waiting
for.
In September Grater will head out on a national tour to perform this intimate collection of songs live.
Grater’s superb live touring band will include Geoff Maddock (ex-Goldenhorse, Anika Moa), Dianne Swann (The Bads), Chris
O’Connor (Don McGlashen) and Andrew Keoghan (the very talented brother of world-famous TV presenter Phil Keoghan).
