It is 16 years since they first broke up and four years since they last performed as a group but Cold Chisel has finally found the right time and the right stage to do it all again.

This coming Friday Ian will perform live at the Apple Store on George St in Sydney. The exclusive in-store event will feature three legendary Australian Artists; Ian Moss, Jimmy Barnes and Diesel.
While the finishing touches are still being added to Ian’s upcoming album, Soul on West 53rd, the wait is over to get a sample of what’s in store.
The first single from the album is a double A side featuring a rocking version of Shake (originally by Otis Redding) and Ian’s take on Let’s Stay Together (originally by Al Green) a track some might remember fromthe Pulp Fiction soundtrack.
While the feature of the new album is Ian’s voice, he couldn’t let his guitar work take a back seat “There’s still a few nice moments on the guitar from me,” he adds, pointing to his raucous workout on a vintage Gretsch to close out Shake.
Shake/Let’s Stay Together is at radio and available on iTunes now.
Ian will soon head out on the road to introduce audiences to his new album Soul on West 53rd thatfeatures fresh takes on classic soul songs from the likes of Sam Cooke, Al Green, Otis Redding and Levi Stubbs. Recognising Australian Idol winner Wes Carr’s talent as both singer/songwriter and guitarist, Ian has asked him along for the ride as special guest.
Ian will perform tracks from Soul on West 53rd as well as a selection of his Moss/Chisel classics while Wes will showcase hits from his debut album The Way the World Looks on the nation wide tour. Ian and Wes have much in common and not least their approachable demeanor and love of music. Their sheer talent combined is bound to give audiences something special.
The Shake It Up Tour kicks off Proserpine on 8 October. Head to the Tour Dates page for more details and stay posted for more dates to be announced soon.
