Australia's beloved musical icon, Marcia Hines, is bringing her highly anticipated Still Shining: The 50th Anniversary Concert Tour to Mackay in 2024!
In an interview with Mackay Life, Marcia spoke about her musical journey over the years and touched on her upcoming tour to the Mackay region. She said, “I feel really blessed that people still want to come see the show and hear me sing… I’m stoked about it.”
This exciting event will celebrate Marcia’s incredible five-decade-long career and Mackay will have the chance to witness her legendary talent live. The Mackay concert is scheduled as part of a national tour that kicked off in Mandurah, Western Australia, on 8 August 2024 and is set to make its way to Queensland, including a much-anticipated stop in Mackay.
Still Shining honours Marcia’s journey from her arrival in Australia over 50 years ago to join the cast of Hair to becoming one of the nation’s most cherished musical artists. With 22 albums and over 2.6 million copies sold, Marcia’s impact on the Australian music scene has been nothing short of memorable.
Among her long list of accolades, Marcia says her most memorable achievements was when she won Queen of Pop as well as being awarded AM and receiving an induction into the Aria Hall Of Fame.
Marcia is thrilled to be in Mackay and noted that she is particular eager to sing with her good friend Graeme Connors.
“I hope to be singing on stage with my good friend Graeme Connors on the night that I’m up there.
“I’m just happy to be coming up to Mackay and hopefully people will come and have a nice night out.”
Fans in Mackay will be treated to a night of unforgettable performances, featuring some of her greatest hits and songs from her celebrated career.
After starring in the internationally acclaimed Velvet stage production, she will also take on the role of Teen Angel in the upcoming John Frost/Crossroads production of GREASE in 2024.
In addition to her live performances, Marcia recently released Still Shining - The 50th Anniversary Ultimate Collection in June 2023, followed by The Gospel According to Marcia in November 2023, which celebrates her musical roots in gospel and her childhood in Boston.
Mackay fans won’t want to miss this special opportunity to see Marcia Hines live on her Still Shining tour as she continues to inspire audiences with her powerful voice, dynamic stage presence and enduring legacy.
