Dinosaur City has teamed up with Heaps Normal and Adelaide music festival Half Strange to curate the three-state touring event, Half Strange. They’ve recruited the likes of Snowy, Workhorse, Danika, Emma Russack, Punko and more for eight shows spread across regional and remote South Australia and New South Wales.
The tour will commence on Kaurna Land in Adelaide Hills on Saturday, 23rd September. There’ll be shows in Jamestown, Melrose and Hawker the following weekend before the tour crosses into NSW for shows in White Cliffs, Broken Hill and Silverton. Half Strange wraps up in mid-October on Wurundjeri Country at Melbourne’s Thornbury Bowls Club.
Workhorse – ‘No Photographs’
All eight Half Strange shows will be open to all ages and tickets are available via a pay-as-you-can ticketing system. Along with seeking to connect with locals in Flinders Ranges and north-west New South Wales, organisers hope to encourage city dwellers to hit the road or seek out public transport so they can be part of the unconventional touring initiative.
