Known for their signature mix of contemporary rhythms and traditional instruments like the lali, the band has built a reputation for powerful performances rooted in Pacific identity, youth empowerment, and unity.

Band member Tim says that this tour is proof that hard work and belief in your roots can take you places, highlighting the group’s goal to inspire young creatives across the region.

For band member Mesa, touring internationally brings both excitement and challenges.

With demand for Pacific music rising globally, INSIDEOUT’s Australia tour is part of a broader wave of island artists stepping into the spotlight. And the band isn’t taking the opportunity lightly.

When asked what he’s most looking forward to, bandmate KUKI didn’t hesitate: “Meeting our fans and trying new food.”

INSIDEOUT’s upcoming shows promise an unforgettable performance and a powerful message: Pacific voices belong on the world stage, and they’re just getting started.
