Simona Castricum Added to Half Strange 2023 – “A Music Tour from the City to the Outback and Back”

Half Strange has announced the complete lineup for its 2023 outback and metropolitan tour. Simona Castricum will join the touring party for a couple of shows in remote New South Wales, while Castricum, Ripple Effect Band and The Garbage & the Flowers have been added to the tour closer at Thornbury Bowls Club, on Wurundjeri country, in mid-October.

Half Strange is a collaboration between Melbourne indie label Dinosaur City and Adelaide DIY festival Half Strange, in partnership with Heaps Normal. The tour begins on Kaurna Land in Adelaide Hills before visiting the South Australian towns of Jamestown, Melrose and Hawker, and White Cliffs, Broken Hill and Silverton in New South Wales.

Ripple Effect Band – ‘Loving and Caring’

Castricum is the latest name added to a lineup that includes the likes of Emma Russack, Snowy, Workhorse, Punko, Danika, bodies of divine infinite and eternal spirit, Elmo Aoyama, Scraps and more. All eight Half Strange shows are open to all ages and tickets are available via a pay-as-you-can ticketing system.

“Through our commitment to progressive music programming and billing with this year’s tour, I hope to empower the next wave of artists and arts-workers across regional and remote Australia for years to come,” said Dinosaur City’s Jordanne Chant.
