The Redgum Years - Corrugated Highway tour of Australia 2025-26

The Redgum Years - Corrugated Highway tour built momentum through early shows in SA & NT, before a live recording in Melbourne over two nights in August.

We received album masters on 12 September and dispatched final 2CD and vinyl 2LP album stocks on 10 October, ahead of the next tour date on October 15. Four separate AS Colour t-shirt print runs were delivered before and during the tour.

Replicat and CrowdMerch handled the design work for each of these projects, and related design projects for shows coming out in 2026.

Client feedback

DESIGN & LAYOUT

"The way Damien and I work together (very happily, I might add!) is that I come up with a concept, Damien knocks it into shape with suggestions and then we ‘to and fro’ on art direction and refinements.

I am sure that Damien would be well able to come up with concepts himself for other clients - it's just that I usually have a good idea about what I want to see and then we knock it into shape together.

I love working with him. It's great."

TOUR LOGISTICS

"Working with Scott is best described as a frictionless process. You place an order and it’s attended to immediately.

The support back up on deliveries from a third party is provided as well. They actively assist if and when issues arise.

The production quality of the T Shirts, CD’s and LP’s is outstanding.

Highly recommend working with Replicat & CrowdMerch for your projects based on service, quality and value."

Ivan Tanner, Director, The Entertanners
