Star Australian DJ duo Kinder will light up the Gabba next month as part of the Weber WBBL|10 Stadium Series, with the dance sensations to perform an electrifying show on 9 November.

Fans at the Adelaide Oval, Gabba, Melbourne Cricket Ground and Sydney Cricket Ground will enjoy a high-energy DJ set from sisters Savannah and Briony Osei, packed with popular hits and supported by an ensemble of 100 colourful dancers, full-stadium LED takeover and pyrotechnics.

The dynamic performance will support the world class cricket on show throughout the Stadium Series, strengthening its standing as Spring’s best day out for families and event seekers alike.

WBBL|10’s expanded Stadium Series features six matches across four days at four venues, with tickets on sale now at www.bigbash.com.au.

November 9, Gabba: Brisbane Heat v Adelaide Strikers

November 10, SCG: Sydney Sixers v Sydney Thunder ‘Sydney Smash’, Hobart Hurricanes v Perth Scorchers

November 15, MCG: Melbourne Stars v Melbourne Renegades ‘Melbourne Derby’, Perth Scorchers v Sydney Thunder

November 16, Adelaide Oval: Adelaide Strikers v Hobart Hurricanes

The announcement of Kinder’s Stadium Series performances follows the release of their new single ‘Far From Home’ last Friday, October 11, and ahead of a major summer of touring across the country this summer.

Sisters and Kinder duo Savannah and Briony Osei said:

“We are honoured to be collaborating with the WBBL. Supporting women in any form has always been very important to us so this is an exciting and important moment for us. It has been incredible watching the support for women’s sport in Australia continue to grow.

“It is a little different for us stepping away from the nightclubs to perform in a cricket ground, but we are looking forward to the adventure and vibing with the spectators in the crowd.”

Charli Knott, Brisbane Heat WBBL player, said:

“It is super exciting to have Kinder lighting up the Gabba and all the Stadium Series matches in WBBL|10.

“All of the Heat girls are music lovers and sports fans, and of course we love big events that bring them both together in front of big crowds in big stadiums. Being part of the Stadium Series is epic and we can’t wait to get out there at the Gabba.”

About Kinder

Having played the biggest stages on Australia’s EDM circuit and drawing inspiration from club sounds the world over, Ghanaian-Australian singer, songwriter and producer sibling duo Kinder (aka Savannah and Briony Osei) are primed to become two of the country’s most beloved homegrown stars.

In 2022, the Kinder girls shared their four-track EP “Yenko” bridging the gap between Kinder as artists, and Sav and Briony as people through their music, allowing the pair to share and celebrate the depth of their Ghanaian heritage with the world. Led by singles “Come Along (feat. A.GIRL)”, “Rasta (feat. Gold Fang)” and “Bus Stop”, these songs took them from clubs to festival stages. Their liberating follow-up EP “Akwaaba” which featured the celebratory “Keep Up” saw them find their feet experimenting with primal club music and deeper lyrical themes, having produced the project at Jono Ma’s studio in Byron Bay alongside Jonti Danilewitz.

2023 saw Kinder release remix tracks “Like It” and “This 1 Thing”, which were immediate fan favourites, shortly followed by “Lightyears”, recorded at Spotify Studios in Londin with UK Producer BCBC, which was the cannon firing that signified the beginning of Briony and Savannah Osei’s new chapter.

The duo have since taken the Aussie dance music scene by storm, hustling for a series of stellar wins including their unforgettable triple j Like A Version of Nelly Furtado’s “Say It Right”, DJ-ing the Vogue x Barbie event, performing at the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix and delivering remixes for Stevan and Budjerah. They’ve supported some of dance music’s biggest names including Marshmello, RL Grime, and Elderbrook, and played some of the country’s biggest festivals like Splendour In The Grass, Dark Mofo, Spilt Milk, Listen Out, Out Of The Woods, and many more.
