British singer calls in as she cycles to Hobart

A British singer-songwriter will call in on the Peninsula as part of a combined bicycle and singing tour of Australia that will see her ride from Brisbane to Hobart.

In 2016, Joanne Wallfisch cycled from Portland to Los Angeles as she undertook a solo concert tour of the United States' West Coast.

In the process, she wrote a memoir, the Great Song Cycle, which she will bring to Umina Book Bazaar on Tuesday, October 1, where she will meet with fans and discuss her new works in her fifth record release.

Ms Wallfisch said she first had the idea to undertake her first Great Song Cycle after hitting an artistic and emotional impasse.

She decided to perform shows while travelling more than 2000kms with instruments and camping gear all strapped to her bike.

In Umina, she will discuss life, love and music and how those things can change from atop a bike seat.
