Whiskey Kings

Biography

There’s a reality that exists in the music of someone who has lived what they sing about.

It’s like putting a filter over a blurred image and bringing it into sharp relief; no confusion about the story, no doubt about the song.

Simon McCullough, charismatic front-man of the Whiskey Dogs, has lived the stories he sings about, puts them down like mile markers on his road, lets you in on the secrets.

His voice is an incredible instrument in and of itself. As a singer he’s just as much at home on his guitar or dobro playing tender love songs as he is on the big stages fronting some of the toughest rock and roll bands in Australia.

Simon is joined by pro musos Dave Walker on guitar, dobro and mandolin and Peter O’Shea on fiddle.

All three sing, all three have known each other for years and together they play with an assuredness that only comes with time.

If you like your music rootsy and earthy with great songs and playing, then Whiskey Dogs are for you.
