Ross Wilson is probably the only person in Australian rock music who can’t make a comeback simply because he’s never been away.
In a career that spans over 30 years Ross remains one of this country’s most respected artists. Ross has chased his musical muse wherever it has taken him and along the way he has entertained legions of fans from every generation.
From Daddy Cool to Mondo Rock, as a solo artist, and as a songwriter of almost mythic proportion, Ross is responsible for penning songs that have etched themselves permanently into the Australian landscape and psyche, such as Eagle Rock, Come Back Again, Cool World and A Touch of Paradise. As a producer, he has given the world the legendary Skyhooks, Jo Jo Zep and more recently, The Screaming Jets. An an honorary Wiggle aka King Mondo, Ross has also endeared himself to a whole new generation of kids who will be amazed one day to find his vinyl records and CDs in their parents’ music collections, too.
As a performer, Ross has constructed a show that is an absolute feast for the ears and features all of his greatest hits and his new classics in the making. His earliest songs sound as fresh as those he wrote last week and he never fails to entertain and charm his audiences with a slightly warped sense of humour (much of it at his own expense!) and his musical expertise, timeless voice and constant reinvention.
It wouldn’t be hard for any artist with a history as rich as his to ride out a musical career purely on past successes, but Ross continues to explore new territory through his ever-evolving live performances and his prolific songwriting.
Ross Wilson is coming soon to a venue near you so don’t miss your chance to see a passionate performer, consumate showman and legendary songwriter live doing what he has been doing so well for most of his life!
