The band has also contributed tracks to the Kids Under Cover, This Is The Place for a Song, Love From A Short A Distance, All in the Family and Liberdade benefit albums.
However, it also included drummer Steve Morrison (who stood in for and recorded in place of Colin Buckler while he was overseas), trombonist/vocalist Sonja Parkinson, saxophonists Billy Abbott & Jenny Pineapple, keyboardist Cheryl, guitarist/backing vocalist Paul Calvert and bassist Nelito Ribero.
Two further compilation albums were made by the band – 'Love From a Short Distance' and 'All in the Family', both of which also raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for East Timor.
The Dili Allstars' profile was raised further when band members acted in, and provided music for the two-part, 2006 Australian/Canadian mini-series Answered by Fire.
Driven by the civil crisis in both East Timor and the Northern Territory Aboriginal communities, the Dili Allstars released Increase the Peace in 2006.
After a long period of touring and performance, Dili Allstars went into hibernation as founder Paul Stewart recovered from serious illness and the band saw yet another reshuffle as a number of members left to form Sol Nation.
[citation needed] A new line-up of the Dili Allstars, including ex-Daddy Cool guitarist Ross Hannaford, original members Nelito Riberio (bass), and Mark Grunden (drums), Painters and Dockers' trumpet player Dave Pace, and sax player Clare Murrell, Balibo movie actor and rapper Osme Gonsalves, percussionist Zeca Mesquita, Gil Santos and Paulie Stewart went into the ABC studios at Southbank in Melbourne to record a new version of the Graham Parker punk classic "Hey Lord Don't Ask Me Questions".
Band members Paulie Stewart and Gil Santos also attended the São Paulo Film Festival in Brazil to support the screening of Balibo.
