The Wolfe Brothers were Golden Guitar finalists at the 2015 Australian Country Music Awards in the Group of the Year and Song of the Year categories.
The rodeo is renowned for its entertainment outside the arena, and the confirmation of The Wolfe Brothers headlining for this year’s August 7 to 9 event shows its ability to attract topline performers.
Mount Isa Mines Rotary Rodeo manager Natalie Flecker said she was thrilled to announce The Wolfe Brothers would bring their special brand of modern country rock to the rodeo stage.
“They write great songs and they are a brilliant live,” she said. “I think they’ll give a fantastic show for the Saturday night of rodeo weekend.”
The Wolfe Brothers consists of two brothers – Nick and Tom Wolfe – and their two best mates, guitarist Brodie Rainbird and drummer Casey Kostiuk.
They captured national attention when they were voted second place in the final of Australia’s Got Talent.
The band is also nominated in three categories in the CMC Music Awards being held in Brisbane this month.
Ms Flecker said she was also looking forward to welcoming back talented singer-songwriter Mick Lindsay with his fresh blend of country rock and pop as the Saturday night support act.
Rounding out the line-up is up-and-coming songstress Caitlyn Shadbolt who will rock the rodeo stage on Friday, August 7.
