BROLGA East Coast Tour 25 brings together a powerful lineup of fresh Australian talent this August.

BROLGA, the tour’s headliner, is a First Nations indie rock band led by Pitjantjatjara song man Russell ‘Rusty’ Smith. With a career that includes collaborations with Rodriguez, Paul Kelly, Archie Roach, and Amy Shark, Rusty brings a rich musical history to the stage. Joined by Dave Mudie, Lee ‘Sonnyboy’ Morgan, Matty Vehl, Phil Ceberano, and Bones Sloane, BROLGA’s debut album blends rock, blues, didgeridoo, and storytelling into what Rusty calls “the new ancient sound of Australia.”

Blind Corners blend dreamy vocals, infectious grooves, and surf-rock guitar to create a kaleidoscopic sound all their own. Known for charismatic live sets, the band — Toby Angus, Jay Dallas, Joe Denley, and Martin Niklasson — has played with Paul Kelly, Matt Corby, and Angie McMahon, and appeared at Bluesfest and The Long Sunset.

ARIANNA is a rising contemporary-folk artist from Tamborine Mountain. A proud Gubbi Gubbi/Butchulla woman, her earthy sound draws from coastal landscapes and busking roots. Arianna has supported Shane Howard, Kyle Lionhart, and Ziggy Alberts, and is quickly gaining attention as a powerful new voice in the Australian folk scene.
