Now Listen! We’re Steppin’ Out! - 50 Years Of Hits Tour

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!

Supported by Abbie Ferris

A CMAA and Countrytown award nominee, Abbie has performed at some of the world’s biggest country festivals, including CMA Fest and CMC Rocks, hit the ARIA Top 20 with her EP Stockman’s Daughter, and toured with artists including Chase Matthew, Austin Williams, Kingswood and The Wolfe Brothers.

Words of encouragement from Lainey Wilson to “hold on to what makes you stand out” after they shared the bill at CMC Rocks helped Abbie embrace her raucous sound: raunchy guitars, propulsive drums and lyrics that tell her story from farm girl to travelling the world, finding strength after heartbreak and delivering it all with the smoky passion in her voice.
