John’s audiences regularly span four generations. His popularity is increasing and his streaming audience defies trends, with the younger male audience his biggest growing demographic. You could ask why? Perhaps in these troubled times, John’s greatest legacy is in making Australians proud of their country and of who we are. His passion for Australia, its flora and fauna and the characters he meets on his travels, inspire his songs. Never one to shy away from controversy, his many conservation songs have left a mark on this country’s history and our consciences.

His live concerts take the audience on a journey across this vast land, moving deftly between larrikin humour and touching pathos. From ‘Cootamundra Wattle’, ‘Cydi’, ‘Three Sons’, ‘A Bushman Can’t Survive’, ‘Rip Rip Woodchip’, ‘Galleries of Pink Galahs’, ‘Raining on the Rock’, ‘Please Don’t Forget Me’ and his calling card, ‘True Blue’, he touches his audience’s hearts, gives them hope and lingers in their memories.

John’s fans will immediately recognise ‘My Travellin’ Days are Done’, as a line from another favourite song, ‘Chandelier of Stars’. After fifty-five years of travelling, it says it all. 2025 will also see the release of a new album, his 53rd, and his fifth picture book for children, Koala Koala, based on his song of the same name, to be published by Penguin Books.

John Williamson is still writing and recording new songs, but don’t miss out on seeing True Blue perform live in 2025 through to 2026 before his ‘Travellin’ Days are Done’. There is no doubt that his contribution to our country’s music and the national psyche will resonate long after the last note has been played.
