One of Australia’s most esteemed musician, BOBBY ALU has fast become one of the nation's favourite acts, renowned for his signature ‘hammock music’ and high vibes, backed by his charismatic band the Palm Royale. Themed by Bobby's Polynesian heritage and born on the East Coast of Australia, the music has a fresh, simple sound powered by ukulele, Pacific beats, catchy songs, tasty four-part harmony and powerful log drumming, with hints of soul and reggae. A multi-award winning songwriter and ukulele master with a smooth and silky voice, Bobby Alu’s talents don’t stop there: he is also one of Australia’s best drummers, currently touring worldwide with Xavier Rudd and the United Nations.
