Jurassic 5

The Tivoli

As part of the Byron Bay touring Bluesfest juggernaut, hip-hip royalty, Jurassic 5, are also partying on down in Brisbane at The Tivoli on Saturday, 4 April. 

Not just any old cookie-cutter hip-hop band, Jurassic 5 was formed in the early 1990s and soon became renowned as one of the most soulful and socially aware of that style of group in the L.A. underground scene. Don’t just take our word for it. Industry magazine, The Beat, said of their live show, “It’s hard to summarise a show that holds you in an audible trance the whole way through and a crew of MCs that each uniquely have you at their every beck and call.” 

The group released hits such as Quality Control, Day at the Races, and Thin Line (featuring Nelly Furtado) before having a six-year hiatus. Now, after slaying them at Coachella and Glastonbury, they’re heading down under for Bluesfest. The six-piece outfit’s shows are legendary for their energy, with TIMEOUT calling one of their shows “the perfect gig”. Can’t get any better than that. 

Jurassic 5’s new song since their reunion, The Way We Do It, features production from the late Heavy D and a sample of the White Stripes’ Get Behind Me Satan single, My Doorbell. Brisvegas, get ready for the J5 party!
