U.S. singer Bob Dylan will embark on a 33-date tour of Europe starting in Oslo on Oct. 10 and ending at London's Royal Albert Hall on Nov. 28, a statement on his website said on Friday.
The "Blowin in the Wind" singer - who is scheduled to finish his "AmericanaramA" tour in Mountain View, California on Aug. 4 - said tickets for "Bob Dylan in Europe" would go on sale on Friday.
"Bob Dylan and his band will tour Europe this fall," the statement on his website said of the 10-country tour.
The announcement follows the September release of Dylan's latest studio album, "The Tempest," described by Rolling Stone magazine as "one of his weirdest albums ever."
Dylan was made an honorary member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters in May this year and awarded the top U.S. civilian honor last year, the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Earlier this month, the grand chancellor of the French council which clears nominations for the Legion d'Honneur said Dylan had also been put forward for France's highest award.
In a letter to the daily Le Monde, Jean-Louis Georgelin called the singer-songwriter an "exceptional artist" known in the United States and internationally as a "tremendous singer and great poet." — Reuters
"One of Those Nights" is the first single to be taken from Lou Bradley's long-awaited third studio album. A deeply intimate composition, "One of Those Nights" is a captivating duet featuring Bill Chambers.
Recorded live in a studio nestled in the hills of Byron Bay, "One of Those Nights" features Bradley and Chambers just playing and singing the tune - nothing fancy. For Bradley, the song was 'simply one of those songs that pulled me out of bed and had to be written at 3am'.
Bradley, an ARIA and multiple Golden Guitar award nominee, worked on her forthcoming LP with the talented Anthony Lycenko (Busby Marou) and it's fair to say that "One of Those Nights", like her previous hit single "One Shoe", is guaranteed to warm even the coldest of hearts.

Hot of the heels of his recent win in the ISC – International Songwriting Competition, Paul is set to continue to build on his solid standing in the Australian country music industry with the release of his latest single ‘Could’ve Loved You’. The song was written by top Nashville songstress Tia Sellers and is one of Paul’s favourites from the album. ‘Could’ve Loved You’ was produced by Andrew Cochrane at FX Productions in Brisbane.
“The song makes people think about their own situation in life. Have we left things, or people in past, that maybe we could have fought for? I think this song will make people treasure what they have in life, family and themselves”.
Paul’s rise to prominence has come not only from his success in the ISC but also through other industry recognition which includes the release of previous top ten nationally charting singles, multiple national awards for his debut album, and a nod for Best Male Vocal at the 2012 Australian Country Music People’s Choice Awards.
There are plenty of highlights in Paul’s short career but it all comes down to the music. You be the judge on his latest offering. It’s a song that Paul hopes will leave everyone wanting more. [MP3]http://itscountry.com.au/music/Paul Cowderoy - Couldv'e Loved You.mp3[/MP3]
