G’Day, Australia — Memphis is coming your way!
This May, the spirit of Memphis heads to Queensland to celebrate 25 years of blues at Blues on Broadbeach (14 – 17 May 2026).
Taking the stage, Memphis Travel, alongside partners United Airlines and Globus, proudly presents MonoNeon, live from Memphis, Tennessee.
MonoNeon is a groundbreaking bassist and experimental artist known for his viral YouTube performances and for being one of the last collaborators of Prince. A Grammy Award winner for his work on Nas’ album King’s Disease, he’s been praised by Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers as “the greatest electric bass player.”
