Starring Darren Coggan
 ‘A Valentine’s Day celebration of Love & Peace’
Saturday February 14, The State Theatre, Sydney

In a very special Valentine’s Day performance, as unique as love itself, Darren Coggan presents Peace Train A Tribute To Cat Stevens at Sydney’s State Theatre, Saturday February 14.

Cat Stevens defined a generation with songs that the whole world sang along with. These timeless songs including Moonshadow, Wild World, Peace Train, Where Do the Children Play, Father & Son, Morning Has Broken, and many more continue to unite the world, bringing people together in the name of love and peace.

Peace Train is a night of music and story-telling which will strike a chord deep inside the heart of anyone who longs for something more, a journey back in time, recreating the sights and sounds, seeking out the man in the music and telling the story behind the songs. Hear twenty-four hits sung with remarkable authenticity by one of Australia’s most exciting artists. Darren Coggan takes the audience on a ride of discovery, back through the joys and the sorrows, the triumphs and the pain, in a celebration of the life of one of the most inspiring and prolific singer songwriters of our time, Cat Stevens.

“Peace Train is all about embracing love and peace, I couldn’t think of a more appropriate day to celebrate an artist that so defined the 70’s and those themes of peace, love and happiness. Cat’s timeless songs and his messages of tolerance and understanding are just as important in our world today as when they were first written, perhaps even more so.” Commented Darren.

Embrace your loved one this Valentine’s Day and get on board the Peace Train as Darren Coggan traces the path of a man who never stopped wondering about how to make the world a better place.



“Darren Coggan seamlessly weaves the Cat Stevens story in song and speech in what ends with a standing ovation.” 
Sunday Herald Sun

“Coggan sounds amazingly like Stevens. He has the timbre, the inflections and the feel of Cat’s music. The combination of Coggan’s affable persona, the intriguing story and the amazing catalogue of songs adds up to a winner.”
The Daily Telegraph

“From the opening chords of Moonshadow, Darren Coggan had an attentive audience of 50-somethings melting in his hands. As the show reached its crescendo the cheering grew louder and the crowd was left wanting more.”
Newcastle Herald

“Coggan has found a quality of voice which is so close to the original that you would think it is Cat Stevens himself. The commitment from the writer is not just to the music, but to the message. The result is an exciting concert and a dramatic narrative with a worthwhile theme.”
