Triple Golden Guitar Winners and 2021 Australasian Country Music Roll Of Renown Inductees, The Bushwackers, are currently in their 54th year of performing. The band has been kept busy this year with a steady flow of performances all over the countryside, from the Tamworth Country Music Festival, Cobargo Folk Festival and Stock Route Festival in NSW to the Melbourne Celtic Festival in VIC, and up to the Gympie Music Muster in QLD, with no signs of slowing down!
Despite their longevity, The Bushwackers saw a resurgence in popularity in 2023, fresh off their sensational run on The Voice, Australia, where they wowed audiences with their iconic anthem, I Am Australian, co-written by the bands own Dobe Newton. The Voice experience was a whirlwind of excitement, says Roger, reminiscing about the rush of four chair turns, reconnecting with Jessica Mauboy, and the thunderous applause from fans across the country. That moment captured the hearts of viewers around the nation and reminded fans that the pair are still very much around.
The Bushwackers will share some of the stories, humour and sense of history that has helped to forge our national identity, along with their all-Australian brand of music that we've all come to know and love.
