Genesis Owusu at Bunyapa Park

Overview

Earlier in 2023, Genesis Owusu hit the River City to play a huge gig with the Brisbane Symphony Orchestra. On Thursday, August 24, the ARIA-winning Ghanaian Australian artist is back — and taking to the microphone again. This time, he's putting on a free show to launch his new album, all while swapping Fortitude Music Hall for Bunyapa Park in West End.

That record: Struggler, his sophomore release, which again showcases his penchant for hopping between different music genres. Recorded in both Australia and the US, it follows his breakout debut Smiling with No Teeth, with singles such as Leaving the Light and Stay Blessed also out now.

Ahead of a world tour, Owusu will give Brisbanites a taste of his latest record in conjunction with West End's beloved Jet Black Cat Music. Catch him onstage between 3.30–5pm, and also hanging around signing copies of Struggler.

If you need to get your hands on the album, obviously JBCM will be selling them across the road.
