You can’t eat crude oil.
Human pain begins at 120dB, death from 180dB. A seismic blast is 250dB, and sound travels more efficiently through water.
You can’t eat crude oil.
From the Dampier peninsula, this call came. We heard it down south. It is pervasive.
You can’t eat crude oil.
From my heartscape I say thankyou to everyone who made this possible:

The movement to protect coastlines from new offshore gas exploration is working. We’ve seen huge wins, kicking some of the world’s largest corporations out of our communities and oceans.
But the job isn’t done yet! So, we’re throwing a little gig to bring the community together and let you know what’s next.
Join Surfrider Foundation Surf Coast this Thursday for the Paddleout Party - a night to celebrate and keep the momentum going to Save The Southern Seas. You might even spot yourself on the big screen 🎥

📍 Ocean Grove Park
On the eve of the sixth of March a chorus shall drift yonder,
down the Pennyroyal valley, from the camp Gentle Annie,
where the kookaburras cackle to the guitar string rattle,
songs quench the air with laughter to share,
and the eve and its tales grow longer

INTRODUCING DANIEL AARONS TO OUR 2026 LINEUP
Like a magpie at dawn, Daniel Aaron’s music may wake you from a slumber- an indie-blues and roots song man from the bush. He’s got groove tighter than the federal climate budget, rhythm raucous enough for the toilet paper aisle mid-lockdown and style harder to pin than a chip packet in the wind.
Centered in earnest lyricism and the rhythm of the yidaki(didgeridoo), Daniel’s songs will have you doting on beloved people, revering the landscape, and dancing whole-heartedly.
Daniel Aaron has cemented himself as ‘one of Australia’s finest emerging acts’ and we can’t wait to celebrate his music at Bastion Festival 2026.
