Multi-award-winning music sensation returns to FRINGE WORLD to present a celebration of Australian hit-makers and the songs that spurred change throughout history.

After winning the award for Best Music & Musicals performance in 2024, Down Under: The Songs That Shaped Australia (formerly known as Mixtape Australia) is back with breathtaking performances for three nights only. 

Australian music is vast and varied; it captures the beauty and brutality of the land with storytelling at the forefront. With the powerhouse vocals of acclaimed songstress Michelle Pearson, an incredible five-piece band and sold out seasons with rave reviews in Australia and Edinburgh to boot, this nostalgic homecoming will have you on your feet with hits from Midnight Oil, Cold Chisel, Paul Kelly, The Whitlams, The Divinyls, ACDC, Tina Arena and more. 

For lovers of Aussie music - this is a moving celebration of the artists whose guts and determination shaped Australia's musical history with beautiful storytelling layered throughout.
