Aussie Country & Folk
Über Aussie Country & Folk
Australia's bush-ballad and country tradition, from Slim Dusty's 70-year recording career (he was the first artist to have a song played from the moon, when astronauts broadcast A Pub With No Beer in 1988) through The Seekers' folk-pop breakthrough in 1960s Britain to Paul Kelly's narrative songwriting that has come to define Australian folk-rock. A genre rooted in stockman storytelling, expatriate journeys, and a continent-sized landscape.
