Overview

Riverside Theatres is hosting two of the most powerful Aussie voices in music — L-FRESH The LION and BARKAA — as part of Great Southern Nights.

Never failing to captivate crowds, L-FRESH will take the stage for what's sure to be a heart-filled display of the hip hop heroics he's known for. Drawing heavily on his Sikh and Punjabi roots, the creative force will go deep into his album South West (2020) and share how his experiences growing up in south west Sydney influenced the record.

You'll also get to catch fellow western Sydney artist BARKAA take the stage, performing tracks from her debut EP Blak Matriarchy (2021). The proud Malyangapa-Barkindji woman will pour her love, admiration and respect of Blak women — as well as her advocacy for positive change for all First Nations peoples — into her performance at the Parramatta venue. Expect lyrical self-expression, hard-hitting vocals and charismatic energy from the all-in artist you need to see live.

Keen to see these incredible artists perform in Parramatta? Catch L-FRESH The LION and BARKAA for one night only at Riverside Theatres on Friday, April 8. For more information, visit the website.
