Tyler Childers and his longtime band, The Food Stamps, will embark on the Australia/New Zealand leg of the ‘Mule Pull Tour’ in February 2025!
GRAMMY-nominated singer, songwriter and musician Tyler Childers is “one of country music’s most compelling and unpredictable artists” (Associated Press). Adding to an already triumphant career, Childers released his acclaimed new album, Rustin’ In The Rain, this past fall via Hickman Holler Records/RCA Records, which includes the GRAMMY and ACM-nominated single, "In Your Love.” Since its release, “In Your Love” has broken into the top 35 on the Mediabase Country chart, garnered over 10 million video views, 180 million on-demand streams and received praise from outlets such as NPR Music, Billboard, Pitchfork, Stereogum, The Advocate and Rolling Stone, who declares, “the music video of compassion and caring we need right now,” while USA Today calls the video “a much-needed portrait of inclusivity.”
Since his 2017 debut, Childers has released three additional albums and performed countless sold-out shows across the world. Known for his electric live concerts, the Kentucky native recently kicked off his extensive “Mule Pull ’24 Tour” with sold-out shows at Inglewood’s Kia Forum, Austin’s Moody Center, two nights at New York's Madison Square Garden and two nights at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena, of which The Tennessean praised, “a powerfully emotional performance...[Childers] emerged in Nashville as a confident arena superstar.” Additional tour stops include Chicago’s United Center (sold out), Boulder’s Folsom Field and Washington State’s Gorge Amphitheatre (sold out) among many others.

A whirl of comic, flights of fancy, extraordinary music and thought-provoking ideas, Thoughtifier is classic Bill Bailey. Whether it’s with Bluetooth bouncing ‘rock balls’ or his love of gospel music, he demonstrates our human instincts for harmony, melody and rhythm to brilliant effect. Using a plethora of instruments, screens and AI he shows our human capabilities can transcend the pesky algorithms with his hilariously useless AI ‘BillBot’.. There’s a real heart to the show, when he recounts his own mistaken death, and his love of the natural world, with whale song, and a ballad about sentience in our crustacean friends. With outlandish new instruments such as the dazzling laser harp, and a thread of philosophy running throughout, Thoughtifier takes all the greatest elements of a Bill Bailey show and propels them to new dizzying heights..
“Comic maestro…. Nobody does it better”
The Guardian
“Thoughtifier, the perfect title for this deepthink, highly original brand of comedy… freewheeling musical genius”
Mail on Sunday
“A unique mix of music, mirth and 24 carat whimsy”
Evening Standard
“Adventures with a whirling, erudite mind..one of a kind”
The Arts Desk
“Sheer. madcap, uproarious eccentricity”
The Telegraph

Homegrown comedy heroes Sooshi Mango return with their most exciting live show yet, Home Made!
“A show where you can get together with La Familia and not fight…maybe!”
TEG Dainty is thrilled to present one of Australia’s biggest-selling comedy acts, Sooshi Mango, and their all-new tour, Home Made, hitting a whopping 25 cities around the country this August–November. This follows an international tour earlier this year and a sold out Australian tour in 2022 which saw them break the house record at Rod Laver and bring laughter to over 100,000 fans.
The trio, made up of brothers Joe Salanitri, Carlo Salanitri and friend Andrew Manfre, are award-winning comedians, podcasters, and content creators and are among the best-loved comedians working in Australia today, consistently performing to sold out crowds across the country and around the world.
Known for their skits and characters inspired by their beloved Italian family, Sooshi Mango have taken the world by storm in recent years thanks to their relatable, nostalgic humour and hilarious delivery. Now, ‘ethnic dads’ Johnny, Vince, Sam, and all their friends are set to return to the stage with all-new material in Home Made! Think outrageous skits, knee-slappers, and musical numbers galore that will transport you back in time and have you laughing until your ribs are sore. New show, same antics!
Carlo Salinitri said: “Australia we are back, and we are bringing you all our biggest and best show yet! Our Nonna would be proud! Get ready, it's coming.”
Andrew Manfre said “It's been great to tour internationally but it's always super special launching a brand-new show in our homeland, Australia. This is some of our best work yet!”
Joe Salinitri said “We are going above and beyond to make sure this is not just a comedy show but a memorable comedy event for the people. It’s going to be a comedy rock concert.”
