“We had an absolute blast hosting Mitch Tambo at our centre—I honestly don't know who had more fun, the educators or the children! Mitch was engaging, warm, and incredibly generous in sharing his culture and stories with us.” - Leane Townrow, Kirinari Early Childhood Centre
"It was such a great concert! Mitch Tambo is a fabulous performer and so generous and engaging with our audience." - Silvia Velez, Brimbank Writers and Readers Festival
“We first saw him at our Principal conference in Cape Schank and were excited to book him in for our school visit. I did wonder how he would bring things to primary level but he surpassed my expectations. He was highly engaging with the students and brought so much fun to his performance, the kids were dancing, singing and fist pumping the whole time. We continued the fun playing his music at lunchtime for our Wiggle Wednesday sessions and the kids were keen to sing along loud and proud.” — Gill Gray, Principal, Kingsley Park Primary School
Acclaimed recording artist, author, and qualified social worker Mitch Tambo brings his unique blend of culture, music, and motivation to schools and youth programs across Australia. Through his “I AM ME” youth tour, Mitch delivers high-energy performances and inspiring talks that are tailored for primary and secondary schools, early learning centres, childcare facilities, and youth hubs.
Each session is filled with uplifting storytelling, original music from his upcoming album, and powerful messages around identity, belonging, and resilience. Mitch's engaging style and authentic approach create a lasting impact on students, educators, and school communities alike. He also introduces children to language and culture through his upcoming illustrated children’s book, due for release later this year.
Following the national success of his 2024 Walanbaa Youth Tour, which received widespread media coverage for its contribution to youth wellbeing and cultural celebration, Mitch continues to inspire young minds across the country.
