Ross Wilson & The Peaceniks
Now Listen! We’re Steppin’ Out!
Doors will open 60 minutes prior to the event
Saturday, June 13 @ 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM
Ross Wilson is hitting the road with his all-star band The Peaceniks to celebrate over “50 Years of Hits” including all the Daddy Cool and Mondo Rock favourites you’d expect along with the latest offering from an almost 6-decade career, tracks from his latest EP on Bloodlines Records, “She’s Stuck On Facebook All The Time”, and everything in between.
From Daddy Cool to Mondo Rock and as a solo artist with no less than 26 ARIA Top 40 hits to his credit as a singer, songwriter and producer, Ross Wilson is one of Australia’s most awarded, respected, and well-known artists! From the legendary band Daddy Cool whose number one anthem “Eagle Rock” and debut album “Daddy Who?” smashed all previous sales records in Australia an astounding 50 years ago in 1971, to the 1977 formation of Mondo Rock, delivering 80’s hits ‘Cool World’, ‘State of The Heart’, ‘Chemistry’, ‘No Time’, and ‘Come Said The Boy’ and into the 21st century as a solo performer, Wilson has never been out of the limelight. His latest release in 2023 “She’s Stuck On Facebook All The Time” is a modern-day tragicomedy in the blues genre. Twice inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame, Wilson’s live performances are legendary.
Support Act – Jason Ayres
From the dust and grit of Western Australia, Jason Ayres is a modern troubadour, bridging the gap between classic sounds and contemporary vibes with a unique ability to connect across genres and generations. Blending alternative country, Americana, and rock influences, Ayres brings a gentle magnetism to the stage and a sound that sticks with you long after the final guitar riff rings out.
With his music taking cues from the storytelling mastery of John Mayer, emotional depth of Ryan Adams, and textural tones of City and Colour, Ayres transforms raw life experiences into anthems that resonate. Reviews often praise his ability to transform somber country influences into memorable melodic moments. And whilst his tracks have commanded airplay on national radio, it’s his electrifying live shows that turn first-time listeners into lifelong fans.
