Here’s one for the kids in the bush. Indie radio network Triple J will rock the Outback with a series of free outdoor concerts.
Chart toppers Missy Higgins and Something for Kate will perform alongside blues band Blue King Brown at the tour’s first show in Humpty Doo. Around 5,000 people call the Northern Territory community home.
Powderfinger, The Cat Empire and Grinspoon will then star in concerts in Karratha, Burnie and Innisfail.
Local artists will play alongside the headliners at these very special events.
The Triple J Goes AWOL concert series aims to bring some of Australia’s hottest artists to some of its most remote regions.
“We are bringing live music to places that don’t get a whole lot of live music,” said a Triple J spokesperson.
The Triple J Goes AWOL series kicks off on July 21. See the Triple J website for more details.
