The seven-part series, released over seven weeks, features Brendon Love, member of ARIA Award winning and Grammy nominated The Teskey Brothers; ARIA and Golden Guitar Award winning country artist Fanny Lumsden; rising superstar GFlip; hip hop sensations Ziggy Ramo and Barkaa; and industry heavyweights Sahara Herald, Tour Director of Frontier Touring and legendary roadie and CrewCare Co- Founder Howard ‘Weird’ Freeman.

Described by GQ as “The New Matriarch of Australian Rap”, Barkaa - a proud Malyangapa, Barkindji woman - is truly one of Australia’s rising stars of the music scene. Barkaa talks candidly with Support Act about homelessness and drug addiction, and the incredible resilience she found through her “sister girls” to rise up to be the artist and mother she wanted to be.

The series goes deep into each subject’s raw, and deeply personal mental health journeys, in some cases further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, what it took to take control of their own wellbeing and what they do now to stay on track.

Tune Ups is supported by the Australian Government through the Office for the Arts, Brag Media and YouTube. Watch each episode at supportact.org.au/tune-ups
