Mother of Aussie rock joins Gympie Muster pack

If it’s rock you’re after, then rock is what the 2023 Gympie Music Muster is delivering and they’re being neither a joker nor a thief.

In their final artist announcement, they’ve added legendary hard rockers, Wolfmother, to the pack.

At the Muster, they love to cater to everyone’s music tastes so this year they’ve got more legends of the Australian rock scene than you can poke a stick at.

Program director and Noosa local Oz Bayldon said Wolfmother rounded out the musical offerings of this year’s festival in the forest to truly offer something for every music lover.

“We are a country, rock and blues festival, so we’ve ensured we ticked each of those boxes with this year’s entertainment,” he said.

“It’s a real coup for us to have the likes of Hoodoo Gurus, Wolfmother, The Angels, The Screaming Jets, and 19Twenty on top of all our blues acts. They are in addition to our huge range of top line country music artists from Australia, the US and Canada.”

The rock and blues acts can’t wait for the experience the unique that the Gympie Muster offers artists and patrons, alike.

“I grew up in Western Australia but it seems like I’ve been hearing about the Gympie Muster all my life,” Hoodoo Gurus’ Dave Faulkner said.

“I’m really excited to finally get to experience it for myself. Even better, I’ll actually be a part of it, performing with my band, the Hoodoo Gurus. Yes, this year the legendary Hoodoo Gurus will be playing the legendary Gympie Muster. It had to happen!“

With last year’s Gympie Music Muster one of the most well-attended on record, this August could see that surpassed as festival afficionados continue to celebrate the return of live music.

“The announcement of Wolfmother’s inclusion on the Muster program comes just a week after we revealed that Aussie ex-pat Morgan Evans would be back from Nashville to once again join us in the Amamoor State Forest,” Oz said.

“We can’t wait to have everyone back and soaking up all the music across genres.”
