About The Author
Tex Perkins
Tex Perkins is an embodiment of rock’n’roll. He has the swagger, presence and indomitable attitude that comes with three decades of fronting some of Australia’s most intense and spirited rock’n’roll bands - The Cruel Sea, The Beasts Of Bourbon, Tex, Don & Charlie, Dark Horses, Thug, The Ladyboyz and many other projects, including performing as Johnny Cash in the acclaimed Man In Black theatre show. His take-no-prisoner approach to performance comes with the sensibility of an artist committed to the subtle (and often unsubtle) nuances of his craft. Throw in an astonishing voice full of power and depth, mix it with a dry and sardonic sense of humour and what emerges is the reason there is only one Tex Perkins.
