Savage Garden to begin and end European tour in Britain
print
emailLONDON--Australian popsters Savage Garden have added two new U.K. dates to their upcoming European tour in November and December. The duo of Daniel Jones and Darren Hayes will now kick off their 15-date trek on Nov. 9 at Newcastle, Englands Telewest Arena, not at the Olympia in Paris as originally planned.
Their Continental tour follows a U.S. outing which lasted from July to September.
Savage Garden's second album "Affirmation" was released last November and is currently on the Official U.K. Album Chart at No. 23. Meanwhile, the duo's eponymous 1997 debut album--which includes the singles "I Want You," "To the Moon and Back" and "Truly Madly Deeply"--has sold more than 11 million copies worldwide, according to Columbia Records.
