Let's hear it for The Boys! Come celebrate the greatest songs from Australia’s greatest male singers.

Join JD Smith as he takes you on a journey through the pop, rock & country classics that have been the soundtrack to your life.

From the unofficial national anthems of John Farnham's You’re The Voice, Daryl Braithwaite’s The Horses & Peter Allen’s I Still Call Australia Home; Supergroup classics by ACDC, INXS, Cold Chisel, Little River Band & The Bee Gees; the Poptastic stylings of John Paul Young, Rick Springfield & Leo Sayer through to iconic ballads from Savage Garden, Rick Price & Keith Urban…. you will be stunned by the powerhouse vocal versatility and charm that JD Smith brings to these songs on stage. (A lifetime performing around the world in musicals & most recently with the international vocal supergroup The Ten Tenors will do that.)

The  Boys from Oz will have you singing, dancing and cheering as you remember how much you love these iconic songs from Australia’s most iconic male performers!

"...JD is an outstanding artist and his voice is a total knockout!" - Rick Price (Australian music legend)
