In October Shameem is hitting the road again, this time without her band, performing intimate solo shows and accompanying herself on the keyboard. She will be travelling up Australia’s east coast, doing 9 shows in 8 cities in 11 days. Tour dates and details are on Shameem’s gig page.
Shameem (the full band) will once more be heading south to Albany and Denmark at the end of February to perform at their favourite regional venues. Show details are below and here.

This March Shameem is heading off across the Pacific Ocean for a whirlwind tour. Her trip includes performances at Canadian Music Week, as well as attending SXSW Music Conference and a number of side-shows and house concerts. For more details, see Shameem’s blog article.
So, in case you haven’t seen my ranting all over Facebook and twitter, I’m off to Canada and the USA this March – yay!!
What will I be doing? Here’s my itinerary:
So, if you have friends in Toronto, New York or Washington DC, please share the love and let them know about my gigs. Check out this poster for all my show dates (not including house concerts)…

Teen superstar Justin Bieber, Brit songbird Lily Allen and US rapper Sean Kingston all have YouTube and Myspace to thank for their rise to global fame, and perhaps another music industry fairytale could be unfolding right here in Perth.
Shameem Taheri-Lee may be an unknown now, but a UK song-writing stint scheduled for mid-this year with international songwriter and producer James Bryan could change all that. Bryan’s credits include Canadian pop/R&B artist Nelly Furtado’s career-making Grammy hits Like a Bird and Turn out the Lights.

BLOG ENTRY 28/06/10
Last weekend saw me flying the red-eye over to Sydney for Song Summit – a conference for songwriters organised by APRA (the Australiasian Performing Rights Association, of which I’m a proud member). If you know you’re only going to get 4-hours sleep on the plane as you’re total dose of shut-eye for the night, I highly recommend the measures that I took: clothe yourself like an eskimo, don a sleep mask and secure one of those awesome neck pillows… and then, when walking around groggily in your destination airport, head straight for Boost Juice.
After the red-eye, on the bus from airport to hotel room.
It’s been a busy couple of months for this little chick singer! Gigs aplenty in various venues around Perth (and not all playing the same kind of music either!), a trip to South Australia to participate in the finals of the James Morrison “Generations in Jazz” Vocal Scholarship and also a trip to Geraldton to perform in a gorgeous seaside venue. Check out my blog for all the lowdown!
No shows booked at the moment.
