Dale Mallett

About

Dale is a live acoustic musician and DJ hailing from the Sunshine Coast of Australia. With over 15 years of experience playing around the country, he has established himself as a talented multi-instrumentalist, gifted songwriter and DJ. His style is deeply rooted in the sounds of the Australian countryside, drawing inspiration from the natural beauty and laid-back way of life that characterises the region. His live performances are renowned for his energy and raw emotion, as he effortlessly switches between guitar, percussion, and harmonica. He is a gifted storyteller, weaving personal anecdotes and tales of the land into his music. Dale draws influence from a multitude of musical storytellers including Mike Love (for his passion), Paul Kelly (for his honesty) and Archie Roach (for his legacy). He has a dedicated fanbase and his coastal music resonates with audiences of all ages.
