Speaking about the addition of Ocean Alley to the lineup, VAILO Adelaide 500’s Event and Concert Manager Brian Gleeson OAM said: “The After Race Concert Series is set to fire on all cylinders, with an impressive lineup on offer across the weekend.
“We’re excited to extend Saturday’s music offering to include an internationally renowned and home-grown act in Ocean Alley and can’t wait to see the boys energise our fans alongside headliner Crowded House.
"Having performed to sold out crowds across the globe and at an impressive list of major festivals including Reading & Leeds (UK), Sziget (HU), BottleRock (US) and Ottawa Bluesfest (CAN), Saturday’s After Race Concert Series will be an event not to be missed for our motorsport and music fans alike.”
