DARREN HAYES ANNOUNCES UK TOUR DATES
DARK LIGHT TOUR 2004
Multi-million selling Australian singer songwriter Darren Hayes, today announces dates for his UK Dark Light Tour 2004.

He will play nine cities around the UK in November 2004. Tickets go onsale at 9am, Friday 3 September 2004.
Pop!ular, the first single from The Tension and the Spark, is released this week. A satirical take on the fickleness of fame, Pop!ular pulsates with eclectic and rhythmic beats, conjuring irresistible 21st Century electronica fused with Darren's trademark vocals, delivering a slice of pure Electro-pop.
The Tension and The Spark is released on 13 September and has already garnered much praise from the media.
