Dec 3 2009 Chester Chronicle

AUSTRALIAN chart-topper Natalie Imbruglia is celebrating the release of her new album Come To Life by embarking on a tour that brings her to the Manchester Club Academy on Sunday, December 6.

Still best known for her huge hit single, Torn from her 1997 debut album Left of the Middle, she was at number one in the album charts as recently as 2005 with Counting Down The Days.

A greatest hits collection followed a couple of years later and now she is ready to look to the future with the help of collaborators such as Chris Martin from Coldplay and legendary producer Brian Eno.

She also wrote with, among others, Los Angeles-based Scottish writer Gary Clark (formerly of Danny Wilson), bunkered down in Miloco Studios in London with producer Ben Hillier (Blur, Depeche Mode, The Horrors), and also with the help of Dave McCracken (Ian Brown, Beyonce).

Tickets for her Manchester show are priced £12.50 and are on sale at www.gigsandtours.com or by calling 0871 2200 260.
