Festa: Dami Im

Festa: Dami Im

2013 X-Factor winner, singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Dami Im unveils her new album and tour, Classic Carpenters. A breath-taking homage and re-invention to one of Dami’s idols, Karen Carpenter.

The show features all the classics like There’s A Kind Of Hush, Close To You, Rainy Days and Monday’s, A Song For You and more, plus Dami’s chart-topping hits Alive, Super Love, Gladiator and a reprise of her 2016 Eurovision song Sound of Silence.

For any one tuning into the X Factor it was obvious that Dami was not only an artist of the new millennium, but she possessed a devout understanding of the rich history of pop and how truly great songs are crafted. “Growing up in Korea and Australia, The Carpenters became part of the musical fabric of my upbringing. I even sung Carpenters songs at my first paid gigs in an upmarket Chinese restaurant in Brisbane along with piano”.

For Dami, Classic Carpenters is about one thing … the music. Great songs are made to be sung and those song-lines are carried through generations. “My intention isn’t to copy Karen’s voice or her tone, our voices naturally sound so different. I try to bring out the joy and the innocence in the songs while trying to sing them as honest and raw as I could as Dami, rather than pretending to be someone else.”

Along with her stellar band, Dami is sure to set the stage alight with her incredibly distinctive voice and musical artistry.
