The Australian virtuoso recently described as 'the finest guitar player of this generation,' has
been selling out concerts around the globe — and in the spring of 2026, he’ll bring his now-famed
live show to intimate venues across Western Canada!
“Do whatever it takes to get in the front row!” – Rhythms Magazine, Australia
“A generational talent that must be seen to be believed.” – Roots Magazine, UK
Don’t miss your chance to see live music at its finest!
Daniel Champagne lives and breathes music. Playing upwards of 250 concerts around the world
each year, he is as loved globally as he is in his homeland of Australia. His signature guitar style
and formidable stage show have garnered accolades and dedicated fans worldwide.
Growing up in the Bega Valley on the Far South Coast of New South Wales, the story goes that
the young artist first picked up his instrument of choice at age five, following in the footsteps of
his musical father. He began writing songs at twelve, trained classically throughout his teens, and
performed wherever he could — honing his craft and developing the electric live show that he is
renowned for today. At eighteen, he finished school, turned professional, and hit the road without
looking back.
The following eighteen years have seen him release seven studio albums, sell out concerts across
the globe, play some of the biggest festivals under the sun, and share stages with the likes of
Tommy Emmanuel, INXS, John Butler, Lucinda Williams, Ani DiFranco, Judy Collins, and
Rodrigo y Gabriela.
Expect jaw-dropping guitar skills, songs that carry the heart away, and the stories of a troubadour
that will stay with you long after the last note rings out — a Daniel Champagne show is not just a
concert, it’s an experience.
WHAT THE PRESS SAY
“The word ‘prodigy’ seems to entirely fall short of this soft-spoken young man’s skills. He coaxes
sounds and melodies out of his instrument that literally drop jaws.” – The Calgary Herald, Canada
“Today I saw the future of folk — festival-goers flocking in the thousands towards the main stage
to witness a young musical phenomenon from Australia dish out an absolute show-stopper.” –
The Firefly Column, USA
“A generational talent.” – Roots Magazine, UK
“Daniel Champagne is a crossroads, fusing the strong traditions of blues, folk, and other roots art
with pop showmanship and admirable lyrical ability. I firmly believe that he will become an
ambassador for roots music in a time where it desperately needs representation.” – The Indie
Blender, Canada
“Reinventing roots guitar.” – Rhythms Magazine, Australia
“Watching Daniel Champagne perform is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. He is a true prodigy
who plays like no one else could possibly play unless they spent at least two lifetimes studying
the art.” – BW Review, New Zealand
“Daniel Champagne exudes a natural ease on stage, as he sings poignant lyrics and beautifully
crafted melodies that invariably carry the heart with grand romanticism. Coupled with anexhilarating guitar talent that transcends mere acoustic playing to replicate a whole band,
Champagne is simply magical.” – TheMusic, Australia
“You feel as if he just invented the instrument yesterday and was discovering its possibilities
afresh.” – Ted Gioia, American jazz critic and music
