Hey everyone! Well, it hasn’t necessarily been the sunniest of summers in Sydney, but for me it’s been perfect as I’ve been busy working on some great new stuff! (Rather than frolicking and surfing everyday in the beautiful Australian ocean.)

Yes, it’s true… there’s a new EP on the way!

In May I’ll be releasing Take A Stand, which will include 5 new original tracks that I am thrilled to share with you. And of course, as you well know… with new EP’s come new Tour Dates! I’ll be starting my Australian Tour in May and will be traveling the East and South coast until July (stay tuned for exact dates.) There are also rumors floating around about a potential Tour through Japan in June! It’s all very exciting stuff, so keep an eye out for more updates about the EP release, and official tour dates! 2012 is definitely starting off on the right foot!

The environmental legislation is not what it used to be. It has weakened because of the government and for reasons such as wanting to build things like sports events or hydropower facilities. The Amazon has provided medicine and food for people all over the world and it’s home to so many animals. If you can, please take a second and sign the petition here to keep the Amazon from being harmed!

I am incredibly excited to announce that I will be joining the Greenroom Festival lineup in Yokohama, Japan!

A few weeks ago I did a photo shoot with the amazing, talented Sarah Chickensen. The weather was great, and we got some great surf and beach shots! Sarah and I both ran into a few bluebottle jellyfish while we were doing the shots but we were able to Photoshop out the all the red welts from the stings =)

You can see the full set of photos here:

Between touring and going back into the studio to begin work on my upcoming album, I haven’t had much time to post much up on my YouTube channel- but I’m really excited to have just received footage from my October show in the Sounds Australia showcase in Kobe, Japan, and wanted to share them on YouTube.

Every week for the next 10 weeks, I will be posting a new clip from the Sounds Australia showcase on my channel. So keep a lookout for my video clips- I’m really looking forward to sharing these videos with you! Here are some links to the first couple videos:

Just Me (Sounds Australia Kobe 2010)
Anyone But You (Sounds Australia Kobe 2010)

A lot of exciting things are happening both here in Australia and abroad and I’ll be making some BIG announcements in the near future, so stay tuned!

After going to Japan a few months ago for the Sounds Australia showcase I was able to secure a full album release deal in Japan for early next year. This means with the national tour finally done and dusted, I am heading straight back into the studio to record! The album will be released in April of next year followed by a full tour in Japan. For those of you in the rest of the world I will first be releasing a new single called ‘Anyone But You’ and touring nationally in Australia to support the release. Prior to that I do have a few shows and festivals booked on the East Coast in February and March so I hope to see some of your smiling faces in the meantime =) I will also be shooting my first music video over Christmas on the Gold Coast, which should be released around March/April of next year so keep a look out as 2011 is going to be a busy year!

Hi everyone! I’m looking for people in the Byron Bay and Gold Coast areas to help promote my upcoming shows at The Rails (Byron Bay) and The Basement (Gold Coast). It should only take a few hours of your time, and as a thank you, I’d like to give out some free merch (t-shirts, signed posters, stickers, etc.) to anyone willing to help! Here’s how you can get involved:

1.      Email me ASAP at kym@kymcampbell.com to let me know that you’re interested in helping. Make sure to include your contact info!

2.      I’ll mail out a package of posters and a map outlining where to post them.

3.      Once the posters are up, send me a few photos of the posted posters to let me know that you’ve put them up. I will also be going around the day of my show to check where the posters have been put up.

4.      At the show: I will be making a special mention of those who help out, and pass out the thank you gifts during the show! (If you can’t make it to the show for whatever reason, we’ll make other arrangements to get you your merch.)

While over there I will be doing a few other showcases, as well as an interview with Nylon Magazine. I have also just received news that I have a full album release deal now in Japan which means….. I will have a full album coming out early next year, yay!  : )
