ABOUT

Have been sporadically fronting the band 'Ten Gallon Head' in Melbourne since 2011 after many years of sporadic music endeavours - always based on original music. Here to mainly be across potential collaborators, band-members, etc. We are experienced players, but mainly out for fun and creativity, not heavy self-promo. We have played supports with bigger acts including Models and Even and have travelled interstate previously, which we would like to do again. Again, fun being the main impetus.
