Soul Deep is one of Barnes’ most beloved albums, a homage to the great classics of R&B featuring a series of timeless hits, including When Something Is Wrong With My Baby, I Gotcha, and River Deep Mountain High.
Soul Deep is a bright light in Jimmy Barnes’ incredible legacy. The album hit #1 in Australia when released in 1991 and became the country’s highest selling album of 1992’s, winning two ARIA awards. It was so popular that it inspired a follow up album Soul Deeper… Songs from the Deep South in 2000.
Jimmy Barnes and band will rock the Blues on Broadbeach stage with an exclusive Soul Deep show with Barnes bringing his signature energy and these much-loved classics to fans who have been eagerly awaiting his return to the Gold Coast.

Jimmy said, “It’s always great to go back to my roots and sing the songs I listened to as a young performer learning to sing. Soul Deep has meant a lot in my life and every time the band and I get to revisit these songs, it’s a great time for us and the audience”.
Experience Gold Coast Festival Director Mark Duckworth said Blues on Broadbeach continues to grow bigger and better each year, and this exclusive ticketed show, on top of four jam packed days of free rhythm and blues, will deliver another unforgettable experience for music lovers.
“We are thrilled to welcome Jimmy Barnes’ special one-off Soul Deep show to Blues on Broadbeach,” said Mark. “Soul Deep introduced a generation of Australians to artists such as Issac Hayes, Sam Cooke, Al Green, Wilson Pickett, and I can’t wait to hear these songs live in the streets of Broadbeach.”
