Victor Wooten & The Wooten Brothers officially return to Australia this February for a series of highly anticipated performances titled the “Australian Tour”. This legendary lineup features four siblings—Victor, Regi, Joseph, and Roy—who share ten Grammy Awards and a lifetime of musical history. Their stage chemistry dates back to their childhood in Virginia and has been refined through years of collaborating with icons like Curtis Mayfield and the Steve Miller Band. The upcoming shows provide a rare opportunity to witness their telepathic interplay as they navigate through a setlist of deep funk, soulful jazz, and rootsy grooves.
The band currently incorporates freshly recorded material alongside long-vaulted tracks from the 1970s and 80s that feature the saxophone work of their late brother Rudy. This fusion of historical archives and modern innovation results in a performance that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking. Each brother operates at the absolute peak of their technical ability, delivering a sound that relies on decades of shared intuition. Every stop on this tour promises an atmosphere of warmth and humor while maintaining the high-stakes intensity of world-class improvisation. The sheer technical precision on display during these live sets is a definitive highlight for the global music community.
