About Daryl
More than two decades on from the partnership that produced the multi-platinum albums Edge (1988) and Rise (1990), Sony Music Australia is ecstatic to announce it has re-signed the legendary Daryl Braithwaite and is set to release his brilliant new mini-album, FOREVER THE TOURIST.
Far from an exercise in revisiting past glories and greatest hits of which, of course, there are plenty FOREVER THE TOURIST reveals a brand new stunning chapter in Daryl’s unparalleled career.
And the centrepiece of this new chapter is the anthemic and sparkling new single, “Not Too Late”. In light of the renewal of his partnership with Sony, there could hardly have been a more apt title. It’s a story of hope, aspirations and most definitely reflections of life, and the obvious choice to have a go or not.
“It seems quite appropriate,” says Daryl. “Even though it’s about a relationship situation, it’s saying that maybe it’s not too late to try anything, whether it be music or anything else. We’ve been playing Not Too Late’ live and it’s been getting a surprisingly good reception, considering the audiences don’t know it.”
“Not Too Late” looks set to join Daryl’s cannon of uplifting classics, including “One Summer”, “As The Days Go By” and “The Horses”, plus the countless timeless gems from his days fronting Sherbet, such as “Summer Love”, “Howzat” and “Cassandra”, to name just a few.
Now 64 yes, 64! Daryl’s famous voice still sounds as fantastic as ever and his lifetime addiction to surfing means he’s as fighting fit as men half his age.
Call this a comeback, a second comeback at that, but as Daryl’s hordes of fans across Australia will attest, the great singer has never gone away. He and his incredible live band have been selling out pubs and clubs in every corner of the country for decades. Several of the members of Daryl’s band have been with him since the Edge and Rise days. The last member joined 14 years ago, which means the current line-up has been together as long as Sherbet were together.
