National Panic, the debut album from Rufous Whistler, debuted at #2 on the ARIA Country charts (just behind The Wiggles!) in March, 2025. The album also earned the coveted ABC Country Feature Album of the Week accolade, cementing the band's place as one of Australia's most exciting new alt-country acts. With national airplay, a fervent live show, chart-topping songs, Rufous Whistler’s blend of folk and alt-country is resonating deeply with audiences.

Hailing from Northeast Victoria (Wiradjuri Country), Rufous Whistler combines raw, heartfelt storytelling with modern alt-country arrangements. Think: the soulful harmonies of I’m With Her, the heartfelt storytelling of Gillian Welch, and the alt-country energy of Trampled by Turtles. Their sound is rich in guitars, twin fiddles, bouzouki, mandolin, double bass and a commanding vocal presence—creating unforgettable live shows.
