NOT DROWNING WAVING WITH SIR GEORGE TELEK

Following sold out shows in Melbourne and Sydney, avant-garde pop-rock pioneers Not Drowning Waving are now embarking on a national tour. 

The band reconvened last year for shows to celebrate 50 years of PNG independence, and this tour sees the David Bridie-fronted outfit again reunite with PNG legend Sir George Telek plus an impressive lineup of talent from the Pacific to perform songs from their landmark album Tabaran as well as from their latest release Malira. 

Lauded as an early masterpiece of world music and a true work of artistic collaboration (Mark Mordue), Tabaran continues to inspire audiences globally.

Malira, released in September 2026, has received widespread critical acclaim, immediately selling out its initial pressings, and even made an unexpected appearance on the charts.

The show will see the 8 piece band perform over two sets and make extensive use of video projections.
