Jessica Mauboy
One of Australia's most successful female artists is coming home to the Top End.
By Chelsea Heaney.
Jessica Mauboy finishes up her eight-date national tour with a performance at the Convention Centre in Darwin this April. A born and bred Territorian and local favourite, Mauboy has had a very busy year. As well as starring in the new Seven Network show The Secret Daughter, the singer and songwriter recently became the first Indigenous artist to debut at number one on the ARIA charts.
Heralded as one of Australia’s pop icons, the multi award-winning Mauboy has come a long way since her audition on Australian Idol in 2006. She has toured alongside Beyoncé and performed for Oprah Winfrey and former US President Barack Obama, as well as releasing three albums and starring in two films.
This long awaited headline tour, titled All The Hits Live, is the first since her To The End of The Earth tour in 2013-14. The show takes you through Mauboy’s remarkable career thus far and covers some of the young musician’s accomplishments.
As the name suggests, All The Hits Live canvases her most popular releases from the last 10 years – including tracks from the movie The Sapphires, some of her hits like ‘Burn’ and ‘Never Be The Same’ and tunes from her recently released chart topping album The Secret Daughter (Songs from The Original TV Series).
Joining her on the night is X Factor winner Isaiah, supporting the recent release of his debut single ‘It’s Gotta Be You’ late last year.
