Mahalia.: dirtgirl | Upcoming Tour and Gumboot Boogie

dirtgirl has always just wanted to share her way of living with as many people as possible.

She's been working on sharing the message of loving and respecting the earth since 2009, and now, finally, she's taking the message from the screen to a string of upcoming live shows around Australia. It's been a long time coming, but the upcoming string of spring shows has been in the artist's mind for just as long. "I'm busting to get [on tour]. I'm so excited to play with my all girl band!"

While the dirtgirl community is undoubtedly one of the most inclusive on the internet, dirtgirl is excited to take the stage in front of physical faces. She happily describes herself as a musician, and it is clear that her latest single, Changes, and upcoming album are another project of love. dirtgirl herself explains the fittingly titled upcoming Gumboot Boogie album as "feel good tunes, with some solid rock."

A seasoned traveller and a passionate soul about everything environmental, dirtgirl is a multifaceted artist, who spends as much time being the voice for the natural as she does singing about it. Having recently travelled everywhere from the Torres Strait, to the Great Barrier Reef, and recently into the offices of Canberra's politicians. But wherever she is, whether delivering petitions to Federal pollies or singing to families through their screens, it's the same heart that drives her forward. One of her latest projects, the 21 Days Plastic Bag Detox, is an even further example of the kindness she extends to the environment, but also to the people she is confident can take care of it. "It's all about protecting what we love. I think everyone can understand that." With an aim of equipping people to better approach simple changes, dirtgirl explains "It's not about choosing to have less, it's about choosing better".

Having been in people's loungerooms for just shy of 10 years, it is clear that dirtgirl has established a supportive audience, both online and off. Ultimately though, she just wants young people to know that change is natural and that everything will be okay. (Especially if they remember to take their reusable bags.)
