The One Night Stand concert in Alice Springs on March 27 at Traegar Park was a huge success, especially for local artists, Tjupi Band.
Not only were they the opening act – for the likes of John Butler Trio, Gyroscope, Washington and Bluejuice – their set was broadcast nationally on triple j radio.
The spotlight shone well and truly on this talented desert reggae band from Papunya, 250 kms NW of Alice Springs. They have also won a place at the mid-year JB Seed Management workshop in the Blue Mountains, with their music receiving huge national exposure, both on radio and online.
