The Rustlers

About Me


The Rustlers burst onto the scene in June 2001 with the release of their 'Broken Pieces' album, launched at the Barmera Country Music Festival. This album has since been released in the United States in May 2006.
As well as being regular performers at Barmera, The Rustlers have performed at numerous festivals including Port Pirie (with Troy Cassar-Daley), the Murraylands Festival at Tailem Bend and closing the SA Showcase in Tamworth NSW in early 2003.
Other notable appearances include:
Live television performance on Channel Seven Adelaide
Playing to over 50,000 people during the 2004 Royal Adelaide Show
Regular support for Australian music legends Cotton, Keays and Morris at their Adelaide performances
Playing to an audience of 40,000 people at the Clipsal 500 After Race Concert in 2006
2006 SACCM Showcase - Norwood Town Hall
Birdwood Country Music Bash 2006 with James Blundell
Returning to an audience of 40,000 people at the Clipsal 500 After Race Concert in 2007

Not since the early sixties have such songs been penned – sing-along lyrics, catchy riffs, raucous harmonies and unforgettable melodies. The songs can soar with the energy of a wild stallion or steal your heart away with their raw honesty.
The Rustlers proved this again in June 2006 with the release of their second album, “Sad Dark Lies”, a batch of fourteen original new songs, just as exciting and toe-tapping as their first offering.
In January 2008 The Rustlers released "Leavin' Me". The album includes another crop of completely original tunes and finally has a sound and feel of where The Rustlers want to be. Another album is soon to be in the works for 2009 and will include crowd favourites "When My Angel Comes", "Lookin' For Love", "Lord Take", "Born To Love You", "Say Goodbye" and many more!
2009 looks like a lot of fun!
