Upcoming Live Performances
Luna Live presents
Tim Rogers
With support from Sarah Carrol
Sat 14 Dec 8.00pm | Burrinja Theatre
The songs of Tim Rogers weave and glide across the field the way an elite footballer dances through the defence. It appears effortless to us out in the stands. Sometimes we mistakenly call it magic although it is anything but. We don’t see all the hard work that goes into making greatness. For a songwriter, that’s life - the personal struggles, the birthdays missed, the long days far from home, as well as the triumphs, the hits, the encores... Thirty-one years after setting off on the great rock’n’roll adventure with You Am I, Tim Rogers is still operating at the top of his game writing songs as rich and memorable and as heart-breaking as any he has ever written.
The songs Tim Rogers writes are a soundtrack for a lot of lives of others too. Don’t miss this special Christmas show with Tim in an intimate, raw and live performance to remember all summer long and probably for years to come.
Check out Tim's music on YouTube.

It was released on iconic Australian Indie label Spunk Records in April 2024, debuting on the national ARIA charts Top 30 Aus Albums.
Their third album ‘Wonderful Oblivion’ released in 2021 through New York-based label AntiFragile Music saw them win the Australian Folk Music Awards Best Folk Album (2022) and Music Victoria Best Contemporary Folk Act (2021).
They have been nominated twice for the prestigious Australian Music Prize.
