Hepburn Palais
Kingswood - Midnight Mavericks Album Tour 2026
Hepburn Palais (Hepburn Springs, VIC)
Saturday, 15 August 2026 7:00 pm
Experience the raw, electrifying energy of ARIA-nominated rock icons KINGSWOOD as they bring their legendary live show to the historic Hepburn Palais.
Renowned for their masterful sonic evolution and ferocious stage presence, this Melbourne-born powerhouse has spent over a decade cementing their status as one of Australia’s premier live acts. With multiple critically acclaimed albums under their belt—including top-10 debuts on the ARIA charts—they have shared mega-stages worldwide with legends like AC/DC and Aerosmith, mastering the art of the stadium-sized performance. Far from just a studio band, KINGSWOOD live is a masterclass in dynamic showmanship, blending thumping, dirt-tinged rock riffs with flawlessly tight, soaring four-part vocal harmonies and an infectious, high-octane energy that commands the room from the very first chord.
Their reputation for delivering explosive, career-defining sets precedes them, making this intimate performance at the Palais an absolute must-see calendar event for true music lovers. Tickets will sell out fast as fans rush to witness a world-class rock band operating at the absolute peak of their performing powers in a stunning local setting—secure your spot now before it is too late!
KINGSWOOD – Midnight Mavericks is a bold, after-dark record written in the quiet hours between the show and the silence — shaped by long drives, back rooms and hard self-reflection — exploring ambition and belonging, love and restlessness, loyalty and escape, all wrapped in worn-in country-rock built on melody, muscle and storytelling rather than polish. The album has already generated major momentum with three acclaimed singles — “Lovin’ A Girl,” “Last First Kiss,” and newly released “Highway Signs” — earning consecutive radio adds, strong national and international DSP playlisting, Triple M Country and Triple M Main rotation, a Countrytown Top 50 breakthrough, and international recognition from the CMA board in Nashville alongside significant US playlist support.
The band’s creative evolution has helped forge a new partnership with ABC Music, who are “blown away by the new material and work ethic,” while endorsements from US artist Kip Moore — who personally selected Kingswood to support his Australian tour — and national touring alongside Counting Crows further underline the record’s calibre. Mature, intentional and confidently delivered, Midnight Mavericks captures Kingswood operating at full force — a cohesive, purpose-driven album built for bigger stages, long roads and repeat listens — not chasing the spotlight, but marking a defining moment in the band’s career and firmly establishing their next chapter.
