Three voices. Three cultures. One love of music and the ocean.

Xavier Rudd, Donavon Frankenreiter and Nahko and Medicine for the People will tour nationally this September/October.

2013 is proving to be a huge year for Rudd who has been steadily building his international fan base , pumping it up with a stellar set at Glastonbury last month that followed a sold out European Tour. He is currently in the middle of a North American tour that is on its way to being sold out too. Don’t miss these three purveyors of fine music as they make their way around the country.

Donavon Frankenreiter

A California-bred resident of Hawaii; Donavon Frankenreiter’s soul is intrinsically linked to the natural world. A renowned surfer and singer-songwriter, Donavon’s music found a home in Australia almost immediately, and the landscape and people of Australia found their way into Donavon’s heart. Overflowing with songs of love and harmony, Donavon’s fifth album Start Livin’ is his most organic and soulful to date: much of it recorded live using natural percussion and household implements as makeshift instruments.

Nahko And Medicine For The People

Another voice made powerful by its message of love is that of Nahko Bear. Touring Australia in February to a fanatical reception, Nahko’s mix of Apache, Puerto Rican and Filipino cultures has already captured the hearts of Australian fans with its amazing blend of sounds, and powerful message of spiritual, personal and communal healing.

In This Issue

In this jam-packed new issue of Australian Guitar (pun intended), we tap into the mind of the man bringing a fierce new edge to the blues: the one and only Gary Clark Jr. We're also showcasing a whole stack of artists who are switching things up in 2019, like Dream Theater, Devin Townsend, Bring Me The Horizon, Girlpool, La Dispute and Foals. Plus, we catch up with the elusive Kurt Vile before he lands Down Under for Bluesfest. Of course, it wouldn’t be an issue of Australian Guitar if we didn’t get down to the wire with some local legends! In this one, we chat with Tommy Emmanuel, Julia Jacklin, Pond, Amy Shark and Sports Bra. And as always, we’ve got a stack of hot new gear reviews, lesson and technique columns, album reviews and producer profile. Plus, learn to play a Green Day classic with the exclusive full tablature for “Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)”.
