Sunshine Coast music lovers are in for a treat this May when music icons Bernard Fanning and Paul Dempsey unite to bring their bold new project, Fanning Dempsey National Park, to Venue 114.

The highly-anticipated The Deluge 2025 Regional Tour will hit the stage on Friday, May 23 showcasing an exciting new era for these two Australian artists.

Known for fronting two of Australia’s most revered bands—Powderfinger and Something For Kate—Fanning and Dempsey have crafted an entirely fresh sound for their debut album, The Deluge.

Tracks like Disconnect blend ethereal synths, pounding rhythms and bursts of saxophone led by monochromatic beats and layered vocals.
