The Songs Of Kev Carmody

Kev Carmody, Paul Kelly, Bernard Fanning, Missy Higgins, John Butler, Clare Bowditch, Tex Perkins, The Herd, The Drones and many, many more join forces in a special twilight concert at Brisbane Riverstage to celebrate a unique Australian talent.

Powerful, versatile and utterly original, for the past 24 years legendary singer songwriter Kev Carmody has evoked the realities of contemporary Aboriginal society with a clarity and grace that has won him fans across Australia and around the world.

This signature Queensland Music Festival event sees Carmody's repertoire - from blunt protest songs to poetic ballads - reinterpreted by a thrilling line-up of Australia's most acclaimed singer songwriters and musicians who contributed to the 2007 album Cannot Buy My Soul, produced by long-time friend and collaborator Paul Kelly.

Carmody's music embraces a range of styles, mixing folk and country with reggae, funk, traditional didgeridoo and mandolin, hard rock, gospel and his straight-talking, laconic, sharp-edged vocals. Persuasive, intelligent and committed, Carmody puts this combination of musical traditions to stunning effect in sung stories that are wistful, witty, brutal and poignant.

Don't miss this landmark concert in Australian music.
