# Event Details

- **Event Name**: The Whitlams | Corner Hotel, Melbourne
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 09 Oct, 2026 at 08:00 pm (+11:00)
- **Event Description**: Join The Whitlams this October as they embark on an old-fashioned East Coast pub run.

“Return to Rock Island” takes the band back to its favourite rock rooms, where if only the walls could talk about the joyful two, three and four night residencies over the decades. Long sweaty nights at these pubs formed the bedrock of The Whitlams’ reputation as a memorable force in the Australian live scene.

What better way to mix things up after the elegance of the celebrated Orchestral ’26 tour, with its eight symphony orchestras, 30,000 people, and concert halls across the country. Now it’s back to the pubs where the audience is standing up close.

Joining the bill for the tour is William Crighton with band, promoting his 4th studio album, Colonial Drift. The pioneer of Bush-Psych and a bold voice of Australian folk rock, Crighton weaves stories of land, spirit, and struggle with raw intensity. 

The set list will tend towards the high energy side of the seven album repertoire - loud, and built for a crowd with nowhere to sit.

Tim Freedman is joined by stalwarts Terepai Richmond on drums and Jak Housden on guitar, with Ian Peres returning on bass and keys.

"The songs splash colours across a portrait of a lonesome, inner-city suburbia that few others can match for original detail and authenticity.... The Whitlams have never sounded even mildly like anybody else." - The Newcastle Herald, 2022
