With millions of albums sold worldwide, JET recently returned to form with Shaka Rock, an album that parallels their smash Get Born, which produced hits like Are You Gonna Be My Girl and Cold Hard Bitch. The first single from Shaka Rock, She’s a Genius, has recently reached Gold sales, as has the album itself.

Powderfinger will be partnering with Yalari on the tour. Yalari sponsors Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from regional, rural and remote communities to attend boarding schools all around the country, so they can receive a first class education through full boarding scholarships at the highest achieving secondary schools. Yalari is an organisation that looks to the improvement of the standard of living of Aboriginal people all around Australia by lifting education standards and creating inspirational incentives to children that would not ordinarily be afforded these types of opportunities. Please take a moment to check out more about Yalari at www.yalari.org.
