Jon Stevens.

Legendary Australian band Noiseworks are set to rock Werribee Park for One Electric Day on Sunday, November 17

Frontman Jon Stevens, who has headlined the event as a solo act multiple times, expressed excitement at the prospect of returning.

“It’s a great line up and I am very honoured to be headlining that day,” he said.

Calling it “a one of a kind venue”, Stevens described the unique magic of Werribee Park.

“When you’re standing on that stage, you’re looking all the way down to the mansion- it is just a magnificent sort of viewpoint.”

The energy transfer between artist and audience has always been special to Stevens.

“It’s love, I suppose. It’s very, very humbling- and sometimes it can actually be emotional and sometimes it can be a little overwhelming when you’re up there.

“It’s such a beautiful exchange.”

When it comes to performing hits, Stevens said he values maintaining the integrity of the songs fans have come to love over the decades.

“I try to play everything true to the original as much as humanly possible,” he said.

By no means relegated to the past, Noiseworks released ‘Evolution’ in November 2022, a record that Stevens said was “Probably my favourite Noiseworks album”.

While Noiseworks will be without founding member and guitarist Stuart Fraser, who passed away shortly after recording their final album in December 2019, the stage is the best way to pay their respects to their former comrade.
