With eight studio albums, six ARIA awards and a reputation that has followed him from the US to Australia and back again, Mark Lizotte, better known as Diesel has reached the point of looking back.

Over 25 years on from bursting into the Aussie music scene with ‘Don’t Need Love’, the man behind such records as Hepfidelity and The Lobbyist has announced an Americana album and tour that will pay tribute to the many artists who influenced him in his early days. With recording for the album underway, Lizotte will hit the road with his concept in February and March next year.
