Don’t miss MIDNIGHT OIL’s final show in Western Australia on September 25 at Perth’s RAC Arena, with a very special rare appearance by fellow ’80s trailblazers GOANNA and acclaimed singer-songwriter STEPHEN PIGRAM.

MIDNIGHT OIL
ANNOUNCE GUESTS FOR NATIONAL “RESIST: THE FINAL TOUR”
RAC Arena – SUN 25 SEP 2022 (PREVIOUSLY SAT 26 MARCH)
WITH GOANNA AND STEPHEN PIGRAM
 

In the 1980s, GOANNA’s debut album, Spirit of Place, helped forge a new Australian i In the 1980s, GOANNA’s debut album, Spirit of Place, helped forge a new Australian identity. The iconic Solid Rock stoked a fire for Indigenous rights that hasn’t gone out, while the anthemic Let The Franklin Flow was a call to arms for Australia’s emerging environmental movement. GOANNA released three studio albums: 1982’s Spirit of Place, 1985’s Oceania and 1998’s Spirit Returns. Soulful, lyrical, political, humane and brimming with musicality, originality and creative volatility, Australia has never produced a group like GOANNA, before or since. Forty years after their debut album, Shane Howard, Rose Bygrave, Marcia Howard and Graham Davidge, with special guests, are reliving those treasures, as they embark on a year of paying homage to the Goanna spirit again. 
 
STEPHEN PIGRAM, a Yawuru singer/songwriter from Broome, is well known for his work with his musical brothers in the much-loved Pigram Brothers band. Stephen was also an important early pioneer of Aboriginal rock as a member of the influential ’80s bands Kuckles and Scrap Metal, and was musical director for the original production of the first Aboriginal musical - Jimmy Chi’s Bran Nue Dae. Stephen also produced (with brother Alan) and scored (with Alan and Alex Lloyd) the feature film Mad Bastards, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2011. Now stepping out solo – armed with his guitar, ukulele, harmonica and stompbox – Stephen released Solfish in late 2021, a follow-up to his debut solo album, Wanderer.
