Following the success of his fall tour, Alberta-born country superstar Paul Brandt announces added dates this spring including stops in Kamloops BC, Prince George BC, Dawson Creek BC, Lethbridge AB, Medicine Hat AB, Estevan SK, and Brandon MB.

Give It Away, Brandt's latest release showcases his exploration of new musical and lyrical territory, while remaining true to the sound and voice his fans have come to adore. A diverse collection of songs, Give It Away explores passion, loss, humour and of course, love. The Give It Away album also features revisited versions of Paul's international smash hits "I Do" and "My Heart Has A History".

The title track to Give It Away was inspired by Brandt's interactions and experiences during the filming of Paul Brandt's BUILD IT FORWARD, a CMT Canada documentary series.

Also recently released, The NOW box set is a milestone for Paul after 15 years of recording and international touring and will undoubtedly be an instant favourite among fans. All of the Brand-T catalogue albums are included in the NOW Box Set (Small Towns & Big Dreams, This Time Around, Risk, and A Gift) and have all been recognized with Album of the Year awards. The set also includes Paul's new album Give It Away, a retrospective DVD, the NOW Book, additional previously unreleased material, and a Just As I Am album discount code (Just As I Am is due for release in 2012).

Says Brandt, "It feels great to be back on the scene with new music and a unique box set collection to share with the world. I look forward to connecting with my supporters through my music and concerts. This is the start of so much more to come, and it's really exciting."

Lord of the Dance is a classic tale of good versus evil, based on Irish folklore that brings a passionate love story to life. Flatley, along with Dance Director Marie Duffy-Pask, hand picked the cast of over 40 dancers; each has achieved individual recognition as a national or worldwide dance champion. Described by the New York Post as "fascinating, rewarding and above all, entertaining," and by the Los Angeles Times as "a showpiece extravaganza," Lord of the Dance is a mesmerizing blend of traditional and modern Celtic music and dance.

The story is based upon mythical Irish folklore as Don Dorcha, Lord of Darkness, challenges the ethereal lord of light, the Lord of the Dance. Battle lines are drawn, passions ignite and a love story fueled by the dramatic leaps and turns of dancers' bodies begins to build against a backdrop of Celtic rhythm. The action is played out over 21 scenes on a grand scale of precision dancing, dramatic music, colorful costumes and state-of-the-art staging and lighting.

Speaking on the success of the show, Flatley says, "It is really about our fans who are always hungry for Irish Dance." Flatley, also the Artistic Director who oversees all aspects of the production says, "Our dancers connect with the audience and have captivated a new generation. Fans appreciate that our dancers deliver a stunning interpretation of Ireland's most famous legends via an eclectic blend of dance styles rooted in traditional Irish dance."

Lee Marshall, president of MagicSpace, the tour promoter and veteran of blockbuster entertainment events agrees. "The championship dancers in our cast manage the impossible every night. Their collective spirit and energy takes audiences to a time and place that is as imaginative as it is inviting."

Tickets are $55 and $65 (plus charges)
