About this concert
Acclaimed country music artist Kasey Chambers will be the special guest at a Newcastle Writers Festival event on November 2 at the University of Newcastle’s Conservatorium of Music from 4pm. Tickets are $28.50.
Chambers will speak with friend and How I Quit Alcohol podcaster Danni Carr about her new memoir Just Don’t Be a D**khead and Other Profound Things I’ve Learnt!, which features compelling stories, rock-solid life lessons and heartfelt observations. She will also perform during the event, which is supported by The University of Newcastle Conservatorium of Music and publisher Hardie Grant.
From her childhood in the Australian outback to the heights of her chart-topping international success as a singer/songwriter, Chambers has trusted her gut, stuck to her values and learned some hard truths, while trying to follow the best advice she’s ever received: just don’t be a dickhead.
Chambers is an Australian country music artist whose distinctive voice, heart-felt lyrics and world-class performances have earned her the rightful position of one of the most popular and acclaimed artists of her generation. Hailed for popularising Australian country music, Chambers has won 14 ARIAs, 24 CMAA Golden Guitars, and 10 APRA songwriting awards. She has had five No.1 albums and her single Not Pretty Enough also reached No. 1.
Copies of Just Don’t Be a D**khead and Other Profound Things I’ve Learnt!,will be on sale at the event and Chambers will be signing books thanks to the support of MacLean’s Booksellers.

Amazing show, we have seen many of Kasey’s concerts but I think she went to the next level after talking about life events that led to the 3 songs before she sang them! Awesome!
