From nostalgic folk and fiery bluegrass, The Way That It Was is a show that honours tradition while making room for the next generation of storytellers. Each performance on the tour will be held in a local country hall, featuring not only Wicker Suite’s music but also spotlighting local artists and community initiatives. The duo is looking forward to immersing themselves in the communities that have long been the beating heart of Australian music.

Fresh from a smash-hit season at the Edinburgh Festival, Barry is set to dazzle audiences across the country with his brand-new show, Barry Morgan’s Travelling Organ Tour, celebrating the release of his infectious new single, “I Say Morgan.” In true Barry style, this isn’t just any tour — it’s a genuine road-hopping adventure. Barry will be personally driving his modified van from town to town, spreading joy, groove and good vibes to fans far and wide. Expect high spirits, tight rhythms, and more polyester than you can poke a keyboard at. Known for his nimble fingers and irresistible showmanship, Barry Morgan transforms the humble home organ into a one-man symphony of sound. His performances are a nostalgic, hilarious, and musically brilliant tribute to the golden age of lounge and pop. “The home organ has soul — it’s my mission to make sure the world knows it!” says Barry. “This tour is about bringing people together through music, fun, and a bit of organ magic.” Audiences can expect dazzling solos, heartfelt grooves, and plenty of cheeky showbiz flair. With his charm and passion for all things organ, Barry Morgan continues to prove why he’s a true legend of Australian entertainment. Joining Barry on this tour as Special Guest will be "STRETCH", the iconic bushman sharing the trials and tribulations of being a real life roadie on tour with Barry. The Stretch character adds another layer of brilliance to the show while celebrating his musical prowess. It's a complete saga! Barry Morgan’s Travelling Organ Tour — a show not to be missed! ABOUT STRETCH (Barry Morgan’s Legendary Bushman Roadie) Meet Stretch — Barry Morgan’s right-hand man, part-time roadie, and full-time legend of the open road. With a heart as big as the outback and a toolbox full of duct tape and wisdom, Stretch has seen it all — from flat tyres to full houses. He’s the bloke who keeps the wheels turning and the organ humming, sharing stories of life on tour with a megastar, and the occasional bush philosophy about love, loyalty, and the price of petrol. When Stretch picks up a guitar or tambourine, things get real — his musical interludes and honest yarns bring a whole new rhythm to Barry’s show. Together, they’re the ultimate odd couple of Australian entertainment — one dazzling in sequins, the other dusted in red dirt. “Barry might be the star,” Stretch says, “but I’m the one who makes sure his organ doesn’t roll down a hill.” Can't make the event?

TOPS with SMERZ
Jet Black Cat Music Presents TOPS (CA) and Norwegian duo SMERZ on their debut Aus tour. TOPS (CA) — musicians David Carriere, Jane Penny, Marta Cikojevic, and Riley Fleck —write timeless music that reliably threads immediacy and depth. Bury the Key, their first full-length since 2020 and with new label home Ghostly International, is a captivating reintroduction for the Montréal band: ever refined, undoubtedly masters of their melodic craft yet unafraid of evolving and testing themselves against different, at times darker tones. The album faces feelings once locked away, engaging the give-and-take between happiness, hedonism, and self-destruction. SMERZ is the Norwegian duo of Henriette Motzfeldt and Catharina Stoltenberg, based in Oslo and Copenhagen. The duo released their sophomore album, Big city life, in May this year through Danish label Escho. Using collages to capture moments of everyday life and dreams, Smerz tell stories lived and imagined—of apathy, loneliness and internal monologue, love and friendship. Smerz operates at the intersection of genres, drawing inspiration from compositional techniques in classical music, the experimentation of computer music and the immediacy of pop music, in the palettes of girly existentialism. Show Doors 7pmEl Ranchero back deck and food truck open from 6pm for pre-show eats and cocktails TOPS & SMERZ appearing at Mo's Desert Clubhouse on: SAT 28 FEB // $55+BF until sold out // 18+ Mo's Desert Clubhouse is the Gold Coast's premier destination live music venue in the Burleigh Arts Quarter.El Ranchero Cocktail Garden, located adjacent to Mo's is open for drinks & food before or during the showAll guests are required to show ID on the door
