Utribe is a three-day festival of music, healing, arts, culture, ecological awareness and dance, to be held at Green Park, Conondale (ten minutes down the hill from Maleny), in the beautiful Sunshine Coast Hinterland, QLD from 25th to 27th September, 2009.
Website: http://www.utribe.org
Tickets: http://www.qjump.com.au/event/3967/Utribe-Festival-2009
Green Park has been well-known to motorcross riders as the best facility available in Australia. Set amongst rolling green hills and farmland, the site has its’ own pebbled creek, plenty of shady trees and lush forest glades making it the perfect camping location.
This is the first time that a music festival has been held at the site and is is expected that the event will be run annually after this, the inaugural festival, in 2009.
Line-up includes:
Ash Grunwald, The Red Eyes, Dubmarine, Tijuana Cartel, Toothfaeries, Loren and Kooii and many other bands who are just as excited as the organisers are about attending this unique festival.
With a picturesque setting and on-site camping facilities, Utribe festival invites you to come and celebrate our togetherness, to connect and to share with like-minded others.
Great music, gorgeous location, and good vibes:
At Utribe there will be workshops galore, bar facilities, food and market stalls, roving performers and healing stalls.
Any stall holders interested in being part of this amazing opportunity should contact the utribe committee as soon as possible to secure your stall as positions are limited.
It is our dream that by sharing our special talents and gifts with each other we can help create a sense of unity, mutual respect and understanding to create one unified tribe – Utribe.
Tickets are available through QJump and our website www.utribe.org now with a limited number of discounted early bird tickets available until sold out.

Playing alongside Mick will be brilliant young Brisbane band Tim Loydell and the Deckchairs, coming back to Maleny on the heels of their successful tour of W.A.
Praised across the globe, Mick Hart has supported music giants Bob Dylan, Sting, Coldplay, Van Morrison, Taj Mahal, The Pretenders, Paul Kelly and John Butler Trio.
The Australian singer/songwriter has been touring the world for the past 10 years, playing festivals and concerts across Australia, Europe, the UK, Japan and the USA.
A prolific songwriter, Mick’s music features a broad range of beautiful, emotive folk and pop to catchy hard-edged rock and roots. His songs showcase an enormous depth of songwriting talent and brilliant musicality.
Mick plays guitars, lap steel, keyboards and harmonica, and is backed on his new album by talented band mates, Damian Leonard (bass) and Tony Chubb (drums).
Tim Loydell and the Deckchairs supported the launch of “What Lies Beneath”, Mick’s sixth studio album, and are keen to introduce him to Maleny.
The Deckchairs debut EP, “Some Stranger’s Ship”, received instant airplay on Queensland’s Triple J, ABC Coast FM, 4ZZZ and interstate radio, capped off by performances at the Brisbane Festival, Coastfest, GoMA, The Globe, Zoo, Troubadour, Big Sound Music Industry Summit and Showcase and a spot at Greenfest between Jeff Lang and Kevin Borich.
