DIESEL’s ‘BY REQUEST’ tour returns to regional VIC, offering a one-of-a-kind conversation between artist and audience. Opening the door for fans to shape the night, the show delivers career-spanning, hit-filled evenings powered entirely by audience requests.

With song choices on offer ranging from the debut album - 1989’s Johnny Diesel & The Injectors, through to his most recent LP - Bootleg Melancholy. We stop off to sample some of his collaborations from his 400 strong song catalogue, and feature some eclectic covers from the artists that have shaped DIESEL’s expansive career.

An intimate, electric and completely audience-driven experience, the BY REQUEST tour is a bespoke affair, with a guarantee that no two shows will be the same across the run.
