Two of Australia’s most loved and successful female recording artists, Deni Hines and Christine Anu, are takin it to the streets again in 2009 after the success of their 2008 East-Coast of Australia tour.
“On the first tour we had such a great time, that we wanted to do it all over again, especially when we have such a great cause to promote such as the Salvation Army and Oasis Foundation. We feel privileged to be able to help” says Christine & Deni.
In a two hour show, this sassy duo will perform their classic hits and favourite timeless songs along with some special duets, including their own rendition of the Doobie Brother’s hit TAKIN IT TO THE STREETS.
While promoting their 2008 tour, Deni and Christine so happened to be performing one of their show duets TAKIN IT TO THE STREETS on the Today Show (Nine Network, Australia). On the same show was a heartfelt segment about the plight of homelessness in Australia accompanied by the Salvation Army who take care and provide much needed services for the homeless of Australia which come from all walks of life.
No less than 5 minutes after walking off set, Christine and Deni turned to each other and said “we’ve got to do something to help” and the recording of TAKIN IT TO THE STREETS was set in motion.
Deni and Christine will release their version of TAKIN IT TO THE STREETS on 15 November 2008 (Nationwide) with fifty percent (50%) of profits going to the Salvation Army’s Youth Homelessness Oasis Foundation.
