Sunday, November 17 – TONIX will open for: Cold Chisel, The Cruel Sea and The Superjesus
The electronic/indie/pop group TONIX has been gaining traction since 2023, known for their electrifying live performances that seamlessly blend synthesisers, saxophones, keytars, and drums. Influenced by acts like Rüfüs Du Sol, TONIX, now featuring vocalist Sammi, have rapidly gained traction following standout performances at Scouted 2023 and IndieCon. Their latest single, “Snake,” produced by David Turley, will be released just in time for their performance at the Adelaide 500.
MusicSA’s Chair John Glenn has said on the event,
“Adelaide 500 and MusicSA have a long-standing partnership, and it’s a tremendous opportunity for our local artists to be part of such a prestigious event. To have J-MILLA and TONIX perform alongside Australian music icons like Cold Chisel and Crowded House not only showcases their incredible talent but also places Adelaide’s live music scene in the national spotlight.”
South Australian Minister for Arts, Andrea Michaels MP, said,
“The VAILO Adelaide500 After Race concert series demonstrates perfectly how arts and culture go hand in hand with major sporting events. South Australians love their sport and they love our state’s reputation as the festival state, home to incredible arts, culture and creativity.
