Tumbleweed & The New Christs: A Double-Header of Australian Rock Legends at the Baso in Canberra Saturday April 12
This is the kind of night that only comes around once in a blue moon. Two of Australia’s most mythical underground rock bands are joining forces for a special double-header at The Baso in Canberra – Tumbleweed and The New Christs. It’s a night that promises to deliver a raw, unfiltered blast of classic Aussie rock and roll from two bands that have shaped the sound of the underground for decades.
Tumbleweed, who haven’t played Canberra since the ‘90s, are returning to the capital for a long-overdue performance. This show will be a homecoming of sorts for the band, who have been making waves with their latest AA-sided single When We Were Young/Patchouli Girl, produced by none other than Rob Younger of The New Christs and Radio Birdman. The single, a potent mix of nostalgia and power, highlights the deep connection between the two acts.
Sharing the stage with Tumbleweed will be The New Christs, featuring key members of the legendary Radio Birdman, including Rob Younger and Jim Dickson. Following a recent string of shows celebrating their Radio Birdman ties, The New Christs bring their own raw energy to the table, playing their distinctive brand of rock and roll that’s made them one of the most respected names in Aussie underground music.
This isn’t just another night of live music – it’s a celebration of rock history. Tumbleweed and The New Christs have each carved out their own corner of Australian rock ‘n’ roll, and on this night, they’re bringing it all together.
Both bands will also be joined by local darlings Charlotte & the Harlots, whose electric presence and homegrown grit will set the stage ablaze before the legends take over. A perfect way to kick off a night of unmissable live rock.
