Rufous Whistler

Rufous Whistler

folk & alt/country

Rufous Whistler’s debut album, National Panic, debuted at #2 on the ARIA Country charts in March 2025 and was named ABC Country’s Feature Album of the Week. With international airplay, a fervent live show, and a growing fan base, the band’s blend of folk and alt-country is resonating deeply with audiences.

Hailing from Northeast Victoria (Wiradjuri Country), Rufous Whistler combines raw storytelling with modern alt-country arrangements, reminiscent of I’m With Her’s harmonies, Gillian Welch’s storytelling, and the energy of Trampled by Turtles. The band is touring extensively across Australia and New Zealand in 2025.

This is alt-country music that hits home and leaves you wanting more.
