Diesel LIVE in Sandbar
*ANNOUNCEMENT*
The Diesel performance scheduled for June 28 at SKYCITY Darwin has been postponed to August 24.
Diesel will perform with John Farnham, Jimmy Barnes and Noiseworks on June 28 in Melbourne. This is a "playing it forward" benefit show to support Diesel's long time friend Stuart (Chet) Frazer, a founding member of Noiseworks. Chet was diagnosed with lung cancer last year. This concert will raise funds for Chet's Help A Mate appeal as well as donating much needed funds to the Olivia Newton John Wellness Centre and Support Act.

Diesel returns to Darwin with his new album Americana. Playing in solo mode, this special show in Sandbar will give fans the opportunity to see a more intimate and stripped back performance that features the distinct guitar playing and powerhouse vocals that Diesel has become renowned for.
Americana. It's music that draws from America's roots, from country, folk, bluegrass, R&B, the blues ... But to Mark Lizotte, the musician known and loved as Diesel, Americana is the very core of his being. It's the music of his childhood and, as an artist born in America and raised in Australia, a link back to the land he'd left behind. On his new album Americana, Diesel pays tribute to the artists that inspired the musician he would become - one of our nation's most lauded, accomplished and hard-working rock guitarists and singers - by putting his own unique stamp on a collection of classic songs.
In short, he re-traces the steps of his musical education paying respect to Tom Petty, CCR, The Band, Bruce Springsteen, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Bonnie Raitt and more.
So now, 27 years after he busted out of the garage and into the Australian psyche with Don't Need Love and Soul Revival, it's time for fans to circle back and hear the songs that made the man. Americana.
To coincide with the release of Americana, Diesel is embarking on a national Australian tour stopping in Darwin to play in Sandbar on Wednesday 28 June 2017. The set will feature tracks from Americana as well as singles and other gems spanning his 15-album career.
