About Midnight Oil
Australian rock outfit Midnight Oil emerged from Sydney in the 1970s, blending hard-driving guitar riffs with politically charged lyrics. Their signature sound, driving post-punk energy topped by Peter Garrett’s distinctive vocal howl, shone on albums like Diesel and Blue Sky Mining. The band’s history is marked by a 2002 disbandment when Garrett left for politics, a brief 2005 reunion for the WaveAid benefit, and a 2009 comeback for the Sound Relief concerts. They returned again in 2021 to release Resist and embarked on a final national tour that wrapped on 3 October 2022 in Sydney. Today the group remains inactive; no new dates have been announced, and the recent death of drummer Rob Hirst in January 2026 leaves future touring uncertain, though members have said they will keep making music together.
