With 18 dynamic years on stage, The Strides have rocked Australia's major festivals like Splendour in the Grass, Byron Bay Blues and Roots, WOMAdelaide and Vivid Festival. Sharing stages with legends including Tony Allen, Julian Marley, Groundation and Third World, this 9-piece powerhouse stands as a reggae icon. Through a fusion of cultures and instrumentation, they unite under a universal consciousness, cementing their status as a global musical institution.

Mac Tango formed on the South Coast of New South Wales in 2014, bringing together a group of mates with a shared love of reggae, rock and high-energy live music. Fronted by vocalist and rhythm guitarist Jackson Way and driven by drummer Nick Elliott, the lineup is rounded out by lead guitarist Sam Coles, bassist Matt "Chibbsy" Bragg, and percussionist Dean Moss. Over the past decade, Mac Tango has built a reputation as one of the South Coast's most entertaining live acts. Blending original reggae-rock songs with crowd-favourite covers, the band delivers a show that's equal parts laid-back coastal vibes and full-throttle energy.
