From front man of The Clash to his work with The Mescalero’s, Joe Strummer was, and still is a massive influence to so many bands and people’s lives worldwide.

Joe sadly passed away at his home in December 2002.

To pay respects to the great man a night of homage happens annually in Sydney and this year the night is taking place at The Annandale Hotel, Sydney on Saturday 28th August.

Year on year this show has been a great success and 2010 sees the fourth annual event for Revolution Rock.

In 2009 it took only half an hour from doors opening for the event to be sold-out and was one of the very last shows to be held at the iconic Hopetoun Hotel.

2010 will also see Revolution Rock expand into Melbourne with a Revolution Rock tribute night happening at The Birmingham Hotel on Saturday 4th September.

LAll proceeds from the event every year go to Strummerville, The Joe Strummer Foundation for New Music. Strummerville are not involved in the organisation of this event.

Strummerville is a registered charity (Registered Charity Number – 1104165) that aims to create new opportunities for aspiring young musicians.

Set up by the friends and family of Joe Strummer in the year after his death, the charity seeks to reflect Joe's unique contribution to the music world by offering support, recording resources and performance opportunities to artists who would not normally have access to them.
