Congratulations! Kasey and Shane

Shane, Kasey and brother Talon finally welcomed their newest member of the family at
10:30am on the 17th July, 2007. A whopping 9 pound 10 ounce baby boy called Arlo
Ray Nicholson... 10 days late, nine hours of labour and then an emergency caesar because
of his size. All is good with the whole family... Mum and Dad are proud as punch, Tal has the biggest grin ever
and has already taught him his secret brother handshake.

Tamworth, Tuesday 27 March 2007: The 2007 Tamworth
Country Music Festival presented by Telstra has just received a unique
promotion; it is the entire storyboard for Kasey Chamber’s new video clip for
her latest single, Sign on the Door.
A showcase of the internationally recognised Festival, the film clip covers the
day of Kasey’s Live and Free Concert in the Park which was held on Friday 26
January 2007. Featuring a pregnant Kasey and her family (including husband Shane
Nicholson, son Talan and dad Bill), as well as extensive footage from the day’s
rehearsal and evening concert, the clip highlights the general vibe and exciting
time to be had by everyone on their trip into the heartland of Australian
country music
“Kasey’s continued support of the Tamworth Festival and is appreciated by
everyone involved, especially the local community that she continues to interact
with each year at the January Festival…we extend our sincere thanks to her,”
said Ms Rebel Thomson, General Manager, Tourism Tamworth.
Over the past six years, Kasey has put on a live and free gig in the park for
visitors to the Tamworth Country Music Festival and in 2007, teamed up with
Australian songstress, Missy Higgins for the two hour show. The concert had in
excess of 20,000 fans take over Tamworth’s Bicentennial Park to support Kasey
and her selected local charity, the Tamworth Salvation Army Drought Relief.
“The free concert in the park by Kasey on the final Friday of the Festival is
always a crowd highlight and is a great prelude the Saturday’s events which
include the Cavalcade and the Country Music Awards,” said Ms Thomson. “Kasey’s
new video is a great addition to the showcase of Festival fun and exciting
atmosphere that has become part of Tamworth’s culture.”
Kasey herself has acknowledged the Festival and visitors to her concert on her
official website,
www.kaseychambers.com , which had the following thank you note
listed; “We just wanted to thank everyone for once again making the Live & Free
in the Park gig as wonderful as ever. Thanks for everyone's cooperation in the
filming of the show. We've made the video to 'Sign On The Door' and are thrilled
with how it turned out. It really captures the vibe of the whole day. Keep an
eye out and you may catch it on Rage or Video Hits or Music Max or CMT.”
“Kasey first started out in the family band busking on Peel Street and has now
become an internationally recognised, cross-genre artist that has stayed true to
her Tamworth roots – she is a true ambassador for Tamworth and the talent that
the Festival continues to draw each year,” Ms Thomson added.

Kasey announces new baby on the way
Kasey Chambers has announced that she and husband Shane Nicholson are
expecting their first child.
"Shane and I are due to have a baby in early July next year," she said in a
posting on her website. "We are absolutely over the moon and couldn’t be
happier."
-
Kasey said that unlike this past year, she would be "taking a bit more time off
from touring and spending that time at home, learning how to change nappies
again and if it's anything like last time (Talon) – learning how to live on very
little sleep.
After her free show in the park at Tamworth this year with special guest Missy
Higgins, Kasey is back on the road again throughout February and March in
Queensland and one show in Darwin.
On the Easter weekend in April, Kasey plays the Byron Bay Blues Festival (her
eighth year on stage).

KASEY CHAMBERS
live free & in the park 2007
With Special Guest
MISSY HIGGINS
All proceeds raised going to Tamworth Salvation Army
Drought Relief
After five tremendously successful years 'kasey chambers live free & in
the park' has now firmly established itself as one of the premier and integral
events at the annual Tamworth Country Music Festival. And so on Australia Day
Friday January 26th 2007 at Tamworth's Bicentennial Park, 'live free & in the
park' will be back for a sixth year.
And joining Kasey this year as her very special guest will be Missy Higgins.
“I’m looking forward to Tamworth again, as always...but a little extra excited
this year because not only are we doing my favourite show in the park for our
6th year - but I’m sharing the gig with Missy Higgins,” Kasey said. “We shared
the stage at Wave Aid a couple of years ago and I’d hoped to get the chance to
do that again sometime. So looking forward to seeing you all there and hope you
enjoy it as much as we do every year.”
Missy Higgins, who is currently in the United States working on her new album
said, “I’ve only been to the Tamworth Festival once before so I’m really looking
forward to getting back there and being part of this show that I’ve heard so
much about”.
In the five years that 'kasey chambers live free & in the park' has been in
existence it has provided the perfect opportunity to help raise some much needed
funds. Thanks to the generosity of the audiences, approximately ,000 has been
raised and donated to local Tamworth based charities. The Tamworth Volunteer
Fire Brigade, Tamworth Salvation Army Drought Relief Fund, Tamworth Youth Care
Organisation for the Prevention of Youth Suicide, Tamworth Base Hospital Nioka
Ward (Palliative Care Unit) & Hope cottage have all received funds. In 2007, in
a slight break from tradition and with regional Australia in the grip of the one
of the longest droughts in history, the buckets will again be passed around for
Tamworth Salvation Army Drought Relief and we ask that fans dig deep and donate
a Gold Coin per person in attendance.
“Your donations to the Salvation Army's Drought Relief Appeal will help us meet
the needs of farmers in the Tamworth region,” Captain Mark Everitt of the
Tamworth Corps of the Salvation Army said. “These funds will not only assist
with the everyday items of living, but it will enable the Salvation Army to
support people on the land with the crippling costs of running their
properties.”
2007 tour dates announced
Kasey Chambers announces an acoustic tour of North Queensland and Darwin
in March 2007. Although know for her stunning stripped back performances, this
is the first time in Kasey’s 9 year solo career that she will put on an acoustic
show. Kasey will be joined by special guests Shane Nicholson and Bill Chambers
for the 9 date theatre run.
Kasey says, “This acoustic tour is a first for me but something I have been
wanting to do for a long time. Most songs take on a whole new life when played
acoustically so I am looking forward to that change. I also get to share the
stage with my husband, shane Nicholson, and my Dad, Bill Chambers. They’ll both
be doing songs of their own and also supporting me through my songs, which will
be a mixture of different tracks from my 4 albums....a bit of old and new and
maybe a few surprises thrown in as well. Looking forward to seeing you all
soon.”
It's been a good year for Kasey - her 4th album, Carnival, debut at #1 on the
Motorola ARIA Chart and has achieved platinum sales to date. Her firstsingle
Nothing At All debuted in the top 10 and the national tour she just completed
received rave reviews for her stunning live performances. Rolling Stone giving
her 4 stars saying that 'she continues to push the boundaries as a performer.'
On top of this, her performance with Bernard Fanning and Clare Bowditch at the
ARIA’s was talked about as one of the highlights of this years telecast.

and everyone working on it is doing so free of charge, from Bernard and Kasey
offering their time to perform, to the production, ticketing, staging, venue,
promotion and everything else. This is a great opportunity for Youngcare to
raise funds as well as being of enormous benefit from an awareness perspective”

from CMAA
CHART-TOPPING country star Kasey Chambers has split from her partner
of four years, television presenter Cori Hopper.
The pair shocked the Australian music industry by officially
announcing they had separated a month ago. In a joint but brief
statement from their respective managers, Chambers and Hopper
insisted the split was amicable.
"They separated four weeks ago and we wish to advise that the
situation is amicable and hope to remain good friends in the
future," the statement read. "No further comment will be forthcoming
beyond this statement and we hope you will respect our privacy on
this matter."
Chambers and Hopper met through one of her band members four years
ago and fell instantly in love. The down-to-earth singer songwriter
and handsome actor have a two-year-old son, Talon Jordi Hopper.
Like A River, Kasey's first single from Wayward Angel, was inspired
by Hopper and the pair wrote three songs together for that album,
which debuted at number one.
Despite their separation, the pair attended the ARIA awards two
weeks ago and Kasey thanked Cori when receiving one of two awards
that night.
