West Preston’s Finest

Finalists for the 2023, 2024 and 2025 Australian Folk Music Awards’ Artist of the Year, Gusto Gusto are dance floor favourites. Hailing from West Preston, a tiny pocket in Melbourne’s northern suburbs, the last two years have seen them storming stages including Glastonbury Festival (UK), Woodford Folk Festival (QLD), Dark MOFO (TAS), Port Fairy Folk Festival (VIC) and Brunswick Music Festival (VIC), and supporting acts Snarky Puppy (US), Skerryvore (Scotland), The Bamboos and The Black Jesus Experience.

Gusto Gusto’s second album Tyrannosauroborus debuted in March 2026 at #2 on the ARIA Jazz and Blues charts and pushes the band toward a new, deeper, more psychedelic direction. Pulling from funk, afrobeat, djent and slow jam influences, the album promises dance-floor fillers with a twist.

The album comes out with a national tour including Cygnet Folk Festival (TAS), Eltham Jazz Festival (VIC), Newstead Live (VIC), Castlemaine State Festival (VIC) and Grampians Grape Escape (VIC).

For fans of: late night boogies, funk horn sections, key-changes and festival vibes. Expect a lot of raucous energy.
