Touring nationally from March, An Evening with Vika & Linda will frame Australia’s most loved vocal duo in a beautiful new light, with their magical voices accompanied only by grand piano It's been a crazy last few years for Vika & Linda, and not just in the ways that it has been for all of us.
June 2020 saw them release their career-spanning collection ‘Akilotoa and score their first Number One Album. Not a bad start. Three months later they released their gospel album, Sunday (The Gospel According To Iso), which debuted at number two. Into 2021, September saw them release their first album of new material in nearly two decades, aptly titled The Wait, which also went to number two. And 2022 was no less frantic. The Queen's Birthday saw them awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for their service to the performing arts, and they ended the year with not only their first Christmas album, Gee Whiz, It’s Christmas!, but their long-awaited memoir No Bull, which documented their journey from Doncaster, in suburban Melbourne, to the top of the charts.
If 2023 saw Vika & Linda relax just a little, they still managed to tour extensively with their crack band the Bullettes, and cap the year, for the second year running, with a sold-out all-star Christmas show.
And now we’re into 2024 and they’ve decided to strip things back and kick off the year by doing things a little differently. Inspired by many wonderful band room singalongs and soundcheck experiences with their long-term collaborator, producer and musical director Cameron Bruce, Vika & Linda have decided to pare it back to just their voices and the beautiful sounds of Cameron on grand piano.
So that's what they're going to do. Starting in March and touring nationally, An Evening with Vika & Linda will present Vika & Linda and Cameron and a career-spanning selection of their favourite songs, performed as most people have never heard them before. Indeed, unless you've been at those band room singalongs or soundchecks, these shows will give you a whole new insight into Vika & Linda and their music. And their voices of course.
It's a bold move; not only will these concerts showcase the rich beauty of their voices like never before, but the format will leave them laid bare as singers. But Vika & Linda have never been a pair to shy away from a challenge, and the last few years have shown they're up to anything. An Evening with Vika & Linda will be an experience none of their fans should miss.
