A Breath of Fresh Air Oct 10

From Daddy Cool to Mondo Rock and as a solo artist with no less than 26 ARIA Top 40 hits to his credit as a singer, songwriter and producer, Ross Wilson is one of Australia’s most awarded, respected and well-known artists.

From the legendary band Daddy Cool whose number one anthem Eagle Rock and debut album “Daddy Who?” smashed all previous sales records in Australia more than 50 years ago, to the 1977 formation of his band, Mondo Rock, which delivered several 80’s hits and into the 21st century as a solo performer, Ross has never been out of the limelight.

In fact, Ross Wilson is probably the only person in Australian rock music who can’t make a comeback simply because he’s never been away.

With a career that spans well over 50 years, Ross remains one of Australia’s most respected artists. Whether out front of a band, as a solo artist, songwriter or producer of the legendary Skyhooks and Jo Jo Zep, Ross’s career has continued unabated.

His live performances are still as full of passion and energy as they were when he first set out and his latest release in 2023 called, ‘She’s Stuck On Facebook All The Time’ is a modern day tragicomedy in the blues genre.

Ross Wilson fills us in on the entirety of his musical journey this week.
