Cold Chisel, Archie Roach, Paul Kelly, Goanna, Icehouse and Men At Work are among the artists whose songs could have joined the inaugural National Songbook selections.

Australian Crawl will open the expanded Sydney Opera House Forecourt concert series, which brings together 12 nights of Australian and international music, several sold-out performances and a renewed fundraising partnership with Support Act.

Australian Crawl returned to the stage for the first time in 40 years and Men At Work for the first time in 25 years when the Red Hot Summer Tour opened in Toowoomba on 17 October 2026, with James Reyne, David Reyne and John Watson carrying the Crawl name and Colin Hay leading Men At Work.

Australian Crawl will return to the stage for the first time in 40 years with a Sydney Opera House Forecourt performance on November 28, joined by Boom Crash Opera.

Australian Crawl and Men At Work will share the stage for the first time in more than four decades, with Brisbane and Melbourne added to the 2026 Red Hot Summer Tour.

The 2026 Red Hot Summer Tour has added two more sold out events, with Berry Showground in New South Wales and Sandalford Wines in Western Australia's Swan Valley now reaching capacity ahead of the national tour.

Australian Crawl recorded only four studio albums and one EP, yet the band's catalogue became one of the defining bodies of work in Australian rock. With members returning to perform the songs together for the first time in 40 years, a new generation has reason to revisit one of the country's most influential collections of recordings.
