About this Event

The Australian virtuoso recently described as 'the finest guitar player of this generation,' has been selling out concerts around the globe — and in the spring of 2026, he’ll bring his now-famed live show to intimate venues across Western Canada!

“Do whatever it takes to get in the front row!” – Rhythms Magazine, Australia

“A generational talent that must be seen to be believed.” – Roots Magazine, UK

Don’t miss your chance to see live music at its finest!

Daniel Champagne lives and breathes music. Playing upwards of 250 concerts around the world each year, he is as loved globally as he is in his homeland of Australia. His signature guitar style and formidable stage show have garnered accolades and dedicated fans worldwide.

Growing up in the Bega Valley on the Far South Coast of New South Wales, the story goes that the young artist first picked up his instrument of choice at age five, following in the footsteps of his musical father. He began writing songs at twelve, trained classically throughout his teens, and performed wherever he could — honing his craft and developing the electric live show that he is renowned for today. At eighteen, he finished school, turned professional, and hit the road without looking back.

The following eighteen years have seen him release seven studio albums, sell out concerts across the globe, play some of the biggest festivals under the sun, and share stages with the likes of Tommy Emmanuel, INXS, John Butler, Lucinda Williams, Ani DiFranco, Judy Collins, and Rodrigo y Gabriela.

Expect jaw-dropping guitar skills, songs that carry the heart away, and the stories of a troubadour that will stay with you long after the last note rings out — a Daniel Champagne show is not just a concert, it’s an experience.

WHAT THE PRESS SAY

“The word ‘prodigy’ seems to entirely fall short of this soft-spoken young man’s skills. He coaxes sounds and melodies out of his instrument that literally drop jaws.” – The Calgary Herald, Canada

“Today I saw the future of folk — festival-goers flocking in the thousands towards the main stage to witness a young musical phenomenon from Australia dish out an absolute show-stopper.” – The Firefly Column, USA

“A generational talent.” – Roots Magazine, UK

“Daniel Champagne is a crossroads, fusing the strong traditions of blues, folk, and other roots art with pop showmanship and admirable lyrical ability. I firmly believe that he will become an ambassador for roots music in a time where it desperately needs representation.” – The Indie Blender, Canada

“Reinventing roots guitar.” – Rhythms Magazine, Australia

“Watching Daniel Champagne perform is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. He is a true prodigy who plays like no one else could possibly play unless they spent at least two lifetimes studying the art.” – BW Review, New Zealand

“Daniel Champagne exudes a natural ease on stage, as he sings poignant lyrics and beautifully crafted melodies that invariably carry the heart with grand romanticism. Coupled with an exhilarating guitar talent that transcends mere acoustic playing to replicate a whole band, Champagne is simply magical.” – TheMusic, Australia

“You feel as if he just invented the instrument yesterday and was discovering its possibilities afresh.” – Ted Gioia, American jazz critic and music
