ONE ELECTRIC DAY LINE-UP UNVIELED
ONE ELECTRIC DAY is thrilled to announce this year’s line up with an array of top-notch Aussie acts that include the mighty Noiseworks, Birds Of Tokyo, Wolfmother, Baby Animals, Killing Heidi and Chocolate Starfish. This iconic outdoor show at Werribee Park has become one of Victoria’s favourite one-day music festivals and promises, yet again, to be a super day out for the family and deliver something for everyone!
Noiseworks provided the soundtrack to every big night in the 1980s, with rock anthems No Lies, Take Me Back, Hot Chilli Woman, Touch, and countless others. Original band members Jon Stevens, Steve Balbi, and Kevin Nicol will deliver all their legendary hits including those from their 2022 album ‘Evolution’ whose debut single ‘Heart & Soul’ became a national radio fan favourite and the Noiseworks Evolution National Tour in 2022/23 sold out from coast-to-coast. Get ready for their all killer, no filler, signature style Aussie rock!
Formed in Perth in the early 2000’s, Birds of Tokyo have grown from independent roots to become one of Australia’s most popular contemporary rock bands.
Since their 2008 breakthrough Universes, all five of the group’s albums have reached the ARIA top 3 including two #1 hits: March Fires (2013) and Human Design (2021). Classic songs like “Good Lord”, “Plans”, “Lanterns”, “Two Of Us”, “Brace” and “Unbreakable” have all been top 10 airplay hits and more than seventy of their tracks have featured on Triple J, making them one of the National Youth Broadcaster’s three most played artists of this millennium. The band has also won the APRA Award for “Most Performed Rock/Alternative Work” on a record setting six separate occasions.
Epic live shows have always been at the core of their appeal. Birds Of Tokyo have played major festivals from Splendour In The Grass & Falls to Red Hot Summerand they have appeared as special guests for superstars like Muse, Midnight Oil, Cold Chisel, Incubus and Bon Jovi. In recent years the band has toured across Australia twice, collaborating with the country’s most prestigious Symphony Orchestras including their 2023 Birdsongs tour which drew unanimous critical acclaim and saw them sell out three nights each at the Sydney Opera House and Melbourne’s Hamer Hall.
This band’s broad appeal and anthemic slew of songs-everybody-knows have made them a favourite for all of Australia’s major sporting events. They have headlined the F1 Grand Prix, V8 Supercars, the NRL State of Origin and the AFL Grand Final (twice!).
In August 2024, Birds of Tokyo dropped a rollicking new single called “Heartbreakers Bar” and announced a headlining tour of the same name which will see the band perform an unusual acoustic/electric live show. The first set will be presented in ‘busking mode’ – in keeping with the mood of their new song. After an interval they will deliver a fully plugged electric set in which they dive a bit deeper into a catalogue of hits that no other band of their generation can match.
Led by vocalist/guitarist Andrew Stockdale, Wolfmother has amassed a global fanbase, played to packed-house crowds around the world and delivered showstealing sets at star-studded festivals like Coachella, Isle of Wight, Lollapalooza, Splendour in the Grass, Rock en Seine and Fuji Rock to name a few. They have been invited to share stages with rock icons AC/DC, Guns’n’Roses and for Led Zeppelin’s induction into the UK Music Hall of Fame, Wolfmother was personally invited as their guest performers.
After the colossal success of their debut record, Stockdale wrote and released another four records under the moniker of Wolfmother: Cosmic Egg, New Crown, Victorious and more recently Rock’n’Roll Baby, as well as two solo records Keep Moving and Slipstream. Stockdale has also collaborated on Slash’s first solo effort, ‘By The Sword’ and last year with Chris Cester of Jet on ‘Chase The Feeling’.
It has been 30 years since one of Australia’s most revered rock bands, Baby Animals, burst onto the scene with the release of their 8x Platinum, ARIA Award winning, self-titled debut album, featuring iconic hits ‘Rush You’, ‘Early Warning’, ‘Painless’ and ‘One Word’. The band was touring with Van Halen in the US when they heard the album had topped the charts, ‘Baby Animals’ spending six weeks at number one in Australia and keeping Nirvana’s ‘Nevermind’ out of top spot. The album went eight times platinum and won three ARIA Awards – Best Album, Best Debut Album and Best Debut Single. It was also declared one of the Top 25 albums of 1992 in UK rock bible Kerrang!, and Baby Animals performed ‘Painless’ on Late Night With David Letterman. They later appeared in The 100 Best Australian Albums, and Suze DeMarchi was also featured in the book Rock Chicks, The Hottest Female Rockers from the 1960s to Now.
Killing Heidi celebrated an auspicious anniversary in 2020, two decades since the release of their rock-pop debut Reflector. The smash hit singles – including Weir and Mascara – embedded the album in Australian music history, took out four ARIA awards and reached four times platinum status. It also catapulted Killing Heidi and its teen musicians – Ella and Jesse Hooper – into international superstar status. The Hooper siblings were revered for their songwriting prowess and their subsequent albums earned them critical acclaim. 2025 sees them celebrate 25 years since Reflector’s debut.
Chocolate Starfish are the epitome of a concert party! Fronted by the enigmatic Adam Thompson, the band is known for their high energy live performances. With songs like Four Letter Word, Mountain, and You’re So Vain, Chocolate Starfish powered onto the Australian music scene in the 1990s and quickly secured themselves a space as an influential force. They produced two Top 10 albums and six Top 50 singles.
