Influences: I got my early inspiration from amateur musicians among the stockmen, plant operators and labourers who i worked with in the Kimberley - and my father’s record collection, which included Elvis Presley, Hank Williams, Jim Reeves and Slim Dusty. Travelling country artists such as Slim, Buddy Williams, Barry Thornton, Ernie Bridge and Rodney Rivers were also early inspirations. Also the Rick and Thel Carey touring show, which featured Kevin Gunn on lead guitar.
Sounds Like: Peter Brandy!
