The lineup features Shane Nicholson, Freya Josephine Hollick, Jeb Cardwell, Duncan Phillips and Stefanie Duzel taking the stage. These artists will be channeling the rebellious energy and raw authenticity that defined the outlaw country movement, which emerged as a countercultural force in the 1970s when artists rejected the polished Nashville sound in favour of something grittier and more honest.
Backing the performers is an all-star band featuring Roger Bergodaz, Stephen Hadley, Shane Reilly and Brad Christmas. The show promises to deliver classic hits and deep cuts from the outlaw canon, bringing that distinctive blend of honky-tonk, folk and rock that made the genre so revolutionary.
