Slim Dusty’s band still travelling

There will only ever be one Slim Dusty, but his legacy lives on with the musicians who toured the country with him for decades.

After a successful headlining show at the Tamworth Country Music Festival, get ready to celebrate the legendary music of Slim with Travellin’ Still – The Music of Slim Dusty featuring Pete Denahy hitting the road next month with shows in Bundaberg, Kingaroy, Pomona and Brisbane. This follows a tour through Victoria and Southern NSW in 2024.

This show brings Slim’s iconic sound back to life, with his original Travelling Country Band reunited to honour the king of Australian country.

After their last show with Slim in 2002, the members of the band went their separate ways—until a reunion reignited their passion to keep Slim’s music alive on stage. With the blessing of Slim’s family, they’re back: Rod Coe on bass, Jeff Mercer on guitar, Doug Gallacher on drums, and Mike Kerin on fiddle, and multi-instrumentalist and singer Pete Denahy leading the way.

From timeless classics to cherished favorites, Travellin’ Still is a beautiful tribute packed with the sounds and stories that made Slim Dusty a national treasure.

Audiences from Winton’s Way Out West Fest to the Tamworth Country Music Festival and the Gympie Music Muster have loved the show which has everything from nostalgia, laughter, and toe-tapping tunes—a must-see show for any Slim fan. Don’t miss your chance to experience this iconic tribute to the man who sang our stories like no other.

The band will perform at the Majestic Theatre, Pomona, on 28 February.
