David Flower presents a beautiful bunch of artists for an intimate three day gathering in the Whitsundays at the spectacular Lake Proserpine. The gathering offers some of our favourite folk /funk /rock and roots artists and a full program of entertainment, games and guaranteed spontaneous moments known as the ‘Flower Effect’.
This is a grassroots celebration of music, connection, and community, where folk, funk, rock and roots weave together in perfect harmony. Returning to Lake Proserpine the festival unfolds beside calm freshwater, wide open skies and natural bush surrounds – a relaxed lakeside setting shaped by campfires, expansive views and long, glowing sunsets.
Across three days, audiences can enjoy a carefully curated program of live, original music, storytelling & intimate performances from exceptionally talented Australian artists. There will be local food vendors, small markets and plenty of space to simply take it all in. Whether you’re watching from a camp chair, dancing barefoot or settling in as the sun goes down, Flametree unfolds at an easy pace, designed to feel welcoming and relaxed.
Flametree Gathering proudly supports Eco Barge Clean Seas Inc., the local legends quietly working to keep the Whitsundays free of ocean rubbish. We have proudly raised $10K over the last 3 years to support their ongoing marine debris removal programs and Turtle Rehabilitation Centre.
The event also continues its commitment to Zero Waste management. Attendees are encouraged to bring reusable cups, plates and cutlery, with waste separation stations available throughout the site. Food and market stalls operate with sustainability in mind to help minimise landfill and reduce the event’s environmental footprint.

First Artist Lineup Release -
Matty Rogers
Raw, soulful and full of fire, Matty Rogers blends bluesy grit with foot-stomping folk and rock. Armed with percussive guitar and a gravel-edged voice, his sets move easily from quiet, heartfelt moments to big, energy-charged crescendos.
Tiffany Grace
Warm vocals and heartfelt songwriting sit at the centre of Tiffany Grace’s music. Raised in the Whitsundays, she blends country-folk storytelling with modern acoustic pop, creating songs that feel sincere, uplifting and familiar.
Sky Eater
Sky Eater is the dreamy lovechild of water spirit Chelsea Skyeater and dub soldier TK Bassdread. Chelsea’s soaring vocals and TK’s rootsy soundscapes create a contemporary fusion of dub, trip-hop and soulful pop that warms the heart. Think reverb-soaked piano, dreamy vocal melodies, trip hop and reggae-infused beats with intuitive lyrics and sparkly jungle influences.
As You Are
As You Are weave rhythm, movement and atmosphere into immersive live experiences. Blending didgeridoo, percussion and electronic layers, their sound drifts between earthy, tribal grooves and hypnotic, dance-floor moments designed to move bodies and minds alike.
David Flower & the Flaming All Stars bring a joyous, high-energy twist to folk, boggy blues and rock. Expect groove-heavy rhythms, poetic lyrics and plenty of playful moments, with a live show that’s as fun and loose as it is musically rich with an all star jam that will get you moving and grooving!
