G Flip had the honors of getting the 2026 AFC Women’s Asian Cup Closing Ceremony all fired up, and they didn’t disappoint.
The multiple ARIA Award-winning talent kicked off the record-smashing final Saturday night (March 21) in Sydney with a mini set, leading off with a performance of “Disco Cowgirl,” lifted from their third and latest studio album, 2025’s Dream Ride.
Then, G got in a familiar position behind the drum kit for a performance of “All Fired Up,” the tourney’s anthem. As previously reported, G was tapped to cover the ‘80s hit, initially written and released by Australian rock band Rattling Sabres, and later a global smash for Pat Benatar.
A portion of the royalties from the song will be donated to Women Onside, an organization dedicated to promoting gender equality in Australian soccer, ensuring that its impact reaches well beyond the pitch.
“Had the best time warming up the ground for the Matildas,” G writes on social media. “Shoutout to the pyro people, we had no idea how many flames & fireworks would be going off and it was insane.”

Some 74,397 soccer fans watched on at Stadium Australia (Accor Stadium) in Sydney Olympic Park, for the largest crowd in the history of the AFC Women’s Asia Cup history. And when all the tickets were counted across the tournament, the 355,528 total attendance was also a new record.
G Flip’s performance, however, wasn’t enough to secure a win for the home team, the beloved Matildas. A first-half wonder-strike from the edge of the box by Japan’s Maika Hamano was enough, as the visiting team held on for a 1-0 win.

The soccer finale coincided with the completion of G’s Dream Ride Tour, which comes to an end after 50-plus shows around the world. “I had the most fun of my life,” the singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist writes on social media.
G is a proven scorer. In 2023, they landed a first ARIA No. 1 album with DRUMMER, released via Future Classic/Universal (their debut from 2019, About Us, peaked at No. 6), and bagged two ARIA Awards.
Soon after, in January 2024, they established a then-record by landing a total of seven songs in triple j’s Hottest 100 countdown, including the No. 2 ranked track, “The Worst Person in the World”. That bettered the mark previously held by rock trio Wolfmother, which scored six entries in a countdown two decades earlier, in 2005.
Dream Ride (via AWAL Recordings), which G described as their “little ‘80s Butch Springsteen fantasy,” parked at No. 4 on the ARIA Albums Chart last September.
