娱乐英语新闻:Country star Tim McGraw to hold concerts in Australia

"My career's been going for a while and I've been looking for opportunities to come down, and this is the first time the timing' s worked out. I'm very excited."

McGraw has confirmed that Hill and his three daughters would be joining him on tour but would not say whether country music's golden couple would sing together on stage.

"We're going to bring as much as we can. We want to give a true representation of what we do here in the States."

McGraw's legions of Australian fans have waited two decades for the star to sing live down under.

"Country music fans are loyal and dedicated and they probably don't get enough of the artists they want to see," promoter Michael Chugg of Chugg Entertainment said.

"Were proud to be able to bring Tim, that it all worked out and he agreed to come."

As part of an elaborate live show, which will take in Brisbane Entertainment Centre (Sept. 16), Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena (Sept. 19) and Sydney's Acer Arena (Sept. 21), McGraw will strut an 18- meter catwalk into the heart of his audiences.
