Killing Heidi to rock Toowoomba festival

-

DON’T miss your chance to catch Aussie rock legends Killing Heidi perform in Toowoomba this month at what is potentiall­y one of their last gigs as a band.

A huge year for the group comes to an end after bringing the Toowoomba Showground’s to life on November 18 at Cully Fest.

After a highly successful 12 months on tour, Killing Heidi now look forward to their final show at a festival that offers something different according to singer-songwriter Ella Hooper.

“We do all kinds of festivals but we are looking for something that is a bit unusual to reach an audience we are yet to reach,” she said.

“When the Cully Fest offer came through we thought it was an awesome idea and a beautiful concert with culturally inclusive and educationa­l aspects, which is what we are all about,” she said.

“We love the diversity and we appeal to a broad cross section so Cully Fest is perfect for us.

“I’m really looking forward to the numerous workshops. You can catch me doing some yoga or eating some bush tucker.”

Killing Heidi have enjoyed nothing but success with numerous accolades and chart toppers, but are now shifting focus to celebratio­n and commemorat­ion.

“I don’t think we have any new music on the way, this tour was about celebratin­g, rememberin­g and commemorat­ing how fun it was.

“This could be our last stop and possibly the end of Killing Heidi, so now is the time to catch the reunion tour.”

Coming from the small area of Violet Town, Killing Heidi understand the significan­t value these events have to smaller communitie­s and said they are vital.

“Not every one likes sport or watching The Bacheloret­te, and music, culture and arts are much harder to access in these places so it’s very important to support events like Cully Fest when they happen,” she said.

“I love Toowoomba and have a close connection to the area so I’m really look forward to coming back and showing the crowd version 2.0 of Killing Heidi.

“2017 has been amazing, an incredible experience and a trip down memory lane that has been really fun.”
