The 2023 edition of Rockhampton’s River Fest kicks off at the end of this month, with a huge roster of Australian artists and bands from a variety of genres. The town centre is set to come alive over three days for this Family Friendly & FREE event for a jammed packed program of Music, Art Installations, Workshops, market stalls and local food trucks. We caught up with a few of the acts on the lineup to ask them about their River Fest preparations, what can fans look forward to and who they are excited to see from the extensive lineup. First Up…Katanak.

It's the Lucid Safari

Lucid Safari is just what summer called for, a ‘smooth and beautifully crafted, melodic’ sound that suits the warm and relaxed season perfectly, and the band’s latest offering, ‘Lady’ is a perfect representation. We got the lowdown on everything from the new song, the pros and cons of touring as well as getting back to playing festivals soon.
