Thu, 28 May 2009 12:26:51 +1000

San Diego based sing-songwriter Steve Poltz has been christened with a new name in Australia. Everyone calls him Poltzy.

In a posting at his website, Poltzy says, “Everyone in Australia calls me Poltzy. ?"Hey Poltzy G'day! How ya goin' mate?" I like it. I could just do kids records and call myself Poltzy. I'll sell hundreds.”

Poltzy found his fortune a year ago after Jewel found her fame. He wrote her big hit ‘You Were Meant For Me’.

He has since toured Australia 8 times and is finishing up a tour with Bob Evans as we speak, before immediately heading back around Australia with Gregory Page.

Poltzy and Pagey dates are:

Dates are:

June 4, Brisbane, The Troubadour
June 5, Gold Coast, Sound Lounge
June 6, Lismore, The Winsome Hotel
June 7, Byron Bay, The Great Northern
June 11, Bulli, The Heritage Hotel
June 12, Cronulla, The Brass Monkey
June 13, Newcastle, The Royal Exchange Theatre
