For those who are unaware. I am an Australian. And for a vast majority of my life I have been involved with the local music industry. I have played with the best and brightest this country has to offer from all walks of life, from all genres of music and who are skilled in all types of musical instruments.
And in my career spanning two plus decades (I started very young). working within every known aspect from roadie to performer, agent to stockroom boy, I have not only witnessed the potential for musical greatness that this corner of the globe was once famous for, but have been front and centre to experience the catastrophic decline this once genre defining industry has suffered in the past 15 years.
In fact, upon achieving my new position here at Whatculture I went on to document the reasons as to why “Aussie rock” is clinically...

AC/DC, Inxs, Midnight Oil, The Divinyls, Cold Chisel, Skyhooks, Rose Tattoo, The Angels, Dragon, Mondo Rock, Crowded House, Radio Birdman, The Bee Gees, Little River Band, Nick Cave, The Screaming Jets, Hoodoo Gurus, Masters Apprentice. What do all of these bands and musicians have in common? They all hail from a sunburnt country, a land of sweeping plains, of ragged mountain ranges, of drought and flooding rains.
That’s right, Australia, or as some of you like to call it, “Down Under”. And that’s not even all of them, trust me when I say that I have left some out of the list due to spacing issues. They all broke thru the barrier that is our isolation (or was, damn internet) and took their music to the masses, achieving both international success outside of their home country as well as setting a benchmark for the sound that would...
