Swanee will be interviewed onstage by good friend Dave Gleeson of the Screaming Jets. The audience will also have an opportunity to ask their own questions in a live Q & A.

This never-before-seen show features semi-acoustic renditions of Swanee’s classic hits, and songs that inspired his new album Believe – including the freshly released single Lately.

He will also be accompanied by special guests including his brother Alan Barnes, singer and guitarist Stefan Hauk (recently returned from a successful overseas tour), accomplished duo Zkye & Damo, and keyboardist Rob Vorel. This promises to be a heartfelt night of stories and songs - offering a glimpse into the world of Australian Rock n Roll royalty, on and off the stage.
